About Delissa
Delissa Castleberry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Mississippi with more than 20 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, addictions, parenting challenges, and other life stressors. She focuses on practical steps toward healthier boundaries and clearer decision making.
She encourages clients to notice feelings without treating every feeling as fact. Conversations are tailored to each person's needs and paced so people can make steady progress. Delissa aims to guide people toward hope and healing while honoring their values.
Delissa describes her work as holistic and faith-informed; she integrates Christian-based perspectives when clients want that included. She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassionate honesty in sessions. Her approach balances encouragement with direct guidance when needed.
In therapy she helps people set goals they choose and practice new ways of behaving between sessions. That can include learning boundary skills, examining patterns from the past, and building coping tools for anxiety or depression. She supports those dealing with grief, trauma, addiction, and relationship strain.
Delissa earned a bachelor degree in Religious Education from Mississippi College and a master of science in education with an emphasis on counseling from the University of Southern Mississippi. Her training and long experience shape a steady, practical style focused on real-life change.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Delissa uses approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance, and helping people find their own solutions; it fits concerns like grief, relationship questions, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice thought and behavior patterns and practice different responses, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and some addictive behaviors.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they will choose or blend methods and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find virtual appointments help maintain regular contact while juggling work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
