Specializing in relationship dynamics, emotional well-being, and life transitions, Deborah integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, family systems theory, and faith-based principles—when desired—to create a holistic approach tailored to each client’s needs.

Known for her compassionate, down-to-earth style, Deborah fosters a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, understood, and equipped to make lasting changes.

She is committed to confidentiality, ethical care, and creating a safe space where you can grow and thrive.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is collaborative, pattern-interrupting, and results-driven. Together, we’ll explore the dynamics shaping your relationships and patterns that may be keeping you stuck. I’ll help you break unhelpful cycles through strategic interventions, practical tools, and meaningful insights, all while ensuring therapy feels engaging and tailored to your unique needs. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, challenged, and empowered to make lasting changes—so you can experience real progress and stronger, healthier connections.

What you can expect from our first session

The first session is a gentle introduction—think of it as having coffee with a friend. It’s a chance for us to get to know each other in a relaxed, supportive space. You’ll learn more about me as a clinician and my approach, and you’re welcome to ask any questions. At the same time, I’ll take the time to understand what’s bringing you to counseling and what you hope to achieve.

If you’re ready, we can dive right in! Many clients who choose to start working on their concerns immediately begin experiencing relief in the very first session, leading to faster progress and meaningful change.
