Hello! I have experience working with adolescents and adults using a variety of therapy techniques in individual and group therapy sessions. I work with a variety of treatment modules including CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, existential therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness. I have worked extensively in crisis experience and with clients in crisis partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive out-patient (IOP), and in school settings.

I believe therapy is most effective when you feel genuinely seen, understood, and supported. My goal is to create a space where you can be yourself without fear of judgment while also challenging patterns that may no longer serve you. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, burnout, attachment wounds, difficulty setting boundaries, and the lasting impact of childhood experiences. Together, we'll explore how these patterns developed, strengthen your self-understanding, and build practical skills that support meaningful, lasting change.

I earned my Master's degree in Counseling, am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) and Certified EMDR Therapist. I use evidence-based approaches, like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), along with other therapeutic interventions tailored to each client's unique needs. My work is informed by attachment theory and trauma-trained principles. I also provide therapy in both English and Spanish.

Thank you for stopping by! I am excited to get to know you and begin this beautiful journey of growth. Whether you are starting a new journey or you’re looking to pick up where you left off, I’m glad you stopped by!

It is my passion to work with people, as they challenge themselves to grow and evolve. Many of us experience challenging feelings of depression, anxiety, relationship stress, and stress of dealing with the many transitions of life. At times, these challenging feelings can make us feel alone or isolated from our communities of love and support. I believe that I am here to walk alongside you and provide insight and support as you begin to see yourself grow and reach the goals that you set for yourself. I primarily work from a narrative perspective, but I pull from many different approaches to create a safe and efficient environment for my clients to explore and reflect on themselves and their situations.

Hi, I’m Debra. Life’s challenges can sometimes leave us feeling disconnected from who we truly are. I believe that each person’s story matters, and I bring a genuine curiosity and compassion to understanding the experiences that have shaped you.

Together, we can explore your personal narrative, identify patterns that may no longer serve you, and build on the strengths you already possess. I work with individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use concerns, mood disorders, life transitions, and the everyday challenges that can impact well-being. My goal is to provide a supportive, collaborative space where you can gain insight, find healing, and move toward a life that feels more authentic and aligned with your values.
