Hey Ya’ll! I’m Chandra Freeman, aka Dede, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor in Dallas, TX and founder of Deep Dwelling Counseling. I have years of experience working with children, families, and individuals 18+ with various mental health problems. From clients exploring their trauma, managing anxiety and depression, uprooting shame-based language, mending relationships, esteem building, and navigating postpartum.

Every sphere of our lives are centered around relationships: family dynamics, co-workers, romantic partners, and friendships. I believe we have the power to learn healthy tools to enrich our relationships with others, and especially, ourselves. My hope is for my clients to find their inner trust and voice needed for guidance and navigating relationships. Self-compassion, motivation for change, and healing are obtainable if we commit to showing up for ourselves. 

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is my primary Modality along with techniques from Dialectical Behavior techniques, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution Focus Therapy. My understanding of the human experience is greatly informed by theories of human development, Person In Environment, and Faith.  

So many of our stories and experiences from childhood were ignored, invalidated, or not believed. Let me help you connect with your inner child through personalized online therapy. Come #DiveDeepWithDede!
