About Me
Hey and hello! I’m Deandra Williams, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Dallas, Texas, born and raised right here in the community I now serve. I’ve spent the past decade working with children, families, and caregivers, helping them navigate life’s challenges with compassion, clarity, and hope.
My practice is built on the belief that healing happens through connection. Whether you’re facing family conflict, coping with illness, or working through the child welfare system, I aim to create a safe, supportive space where you and your family can be heard and begin to heal.
I know firsthand that life can change in an instant. I’ve been there myself. As a breast cancer survivor, I understand what it’s like to have your world shift overnight and to find strength in the process of rebuilding. That’s why my approach is grounded in empathy, resilience, and empowerment.
If you’re ready to explore change, process your story, or simply have someone walk alongside you through the hard parts, I’m here. Let’s work together to heal and rediscover your strength.
