Deanna Storck
BSW, Behavioral Specialist, MSW Trainee
I am passionate about working with youth and their families through the use of behavioral therapy. My areas of focus are disruptive behaviors, emotional dysregulation, neurodivergence, and anxiety.
I believe that working with youth, alongside their families, can pave a healthier and happier path for everyone involved. No matter the reason for beginning treatment, I aim to make sure that my clients are comfortable and have access to the care and resources that they deserve.
I have a passion for behavioral health, and particularly in supporting those who are struggling with disruptive behaviors and emotional distress. I continuously aim to provide a safe space for those going through transitional periods, experiencing struggles in their day to day lives, or just overall needing support in addressing their behavioral health goals. I value open communication, collaboration on coping skills, and building a trusting relationship with my clients.
My goal is to create a supportive and inclusive environment for both individuals and their families. I will work with you towards creating lasting change through goal setting and empathy-centered progress towards these goals. While pursuing my degrees in the field of Social Work, I have been actively seeking opportunities to learn about different interventions and working closely with licensed Mental Health Clinicians and practitioners to grow my knowledge even further. I believe that every person and every case is different, and share a passion for working together on your individualized needs and goals.
Along with my passion for working with youth at YTT, I also was given an amazing opportunity to work with a wide array of individuals through Yes To You. Yes To You is the non profit sector of YTT focused on providing mental health services for those in need of sliding scale treatment. I’ve had the pleasure of working with the University of Silicon Valley to provide counseling to college students, as well as adults and children through this program. No matter the reason for beginning treatment, I aim to make sure that my clients are comfortable and have access to the care and resources that they deserve.
