The people that I work with often do not understand why they are feeling depressed, anxious, angry, disappointed and so forth, let alone where it stems from or how to change it. I work using multiple therapy models tailored to an individual's needs and personality. We will work collaboratively to uncover the root of distress and develop the tools needed to overcome the challenges that are problematic.

I am a clinical psychologist with expertise in treating addictions, eating disorders, trauma, anxiety, depression, body image issues and difficulties with emotion regulation. I teach skills that increase life satisfaction, happiness, self-confidence, curiosity and gratitude. When life doesn't meet our expectations or painful situations occur, many people become self-critical and fight against emotions such as anger, loneliness, fear or shame. It is this lack of acceptance that increases suffering. Mindfulness and self-compassion involve responding with kindness to our own pain, thereby reducing suffering.

In this this time of crises, people are struggling to cope with the multiple challenges they are facing, including isolation, fear, anxiety, depression, anger, sadness, financial stress, and relationships. As a therapist, I want to offer assistance to individuals who find themselves overwhelmed and seeking a safe space in which to openly discuss their concerns. Although I take insurance, I will be discussing a sliding scale with individuals who would otherwise be unable to get treatment.

Let's talk. Life can become overwhelming, leading to symptoms of anxiety and depression. Panic attacks? Sleepless nights? Withdrawing from family and friends? Increased agitation? Often these symptoms negatively impact our ability to function well and can interfere with our relationships and the carrying out of the activities of daily living. There are many options and resources available to assist you in reclaiming your life, improving your relationships and creating a more satisfying and fulfilling existence overall. I am here to work with you, to support and challenge you, in a safe and nurturing environment. Let's get started!

Deborah works with couples and professional individuals to strengthen relationships and deepen connections. Clients learn to change the way they communicate, and alter unhealthy relationship dynamics. Trust issues and resentments are replaced with optimism and renewed energy. Deborah uses science-based therapy to teach clients to communicate productively, enabling them to have difficult conversations about finances, power-struggles, sex and difference of opinions. She provides a safe environment and therapy sessions are motivational and effective. In Deborah’s sessions, there is no “bad guy” and blame is never the focus.

We all have the ability to heal from the experiences in life that have shaped us, whether we chose them, or we were given them without our choosing.

I believe the process of healing is a process of reconnecting with life, with self, and with others. With openness, warmth, and humor, I am here to help you to step i"nto the present while healing and claiming freedom from painful emotions and the past.

***** I am currently unable to accept new clients at this time***** I have enjoyed working with children, adolescents, and adults for more than 20 years, with a focus on managing emotional difficulties, relationships, and stress.

Hello, thanks for this opportunity to connect with you. I am dedicated to not only help you resolve your problems, overcome obstacles and/or get your needs and wants met, but also to help you have a better, more compassionate, more confident relationship with yourself in the process including, in my view, the ultimate experience- an unconditionally loving relationship with yourself especially in times of pain.

Many of my clients are children who struggle with:* Attention and Learning Issues *Anxiety, Sadness or Mood Swings * A hyper sensitivity to people and the environment. Traditional therapies include medication or "cognitive" approaches. But these approaches do not directly address the fact that often the brain is stuck in an unsuccessful pattern that the conscious mind may not be able to change. My program integrates psychotherapy and coaching with Brain Biofeedback (Neurofeedback) to change these brain patterns and increase calmness, balance, and self regulation. To learn more about the Inner Act program and Neurofeedback, please visit: www.inner-act.com.

I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families. People may want to address topics such as, co-parenting, gender or sexuality, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, addiction, life transitions, trauma and more. We all have the capacity to reach our full potential but sometimes this is clouded by low self-esteem, past trauma, or unmet needs. Together we can work through/process whatever challenge you are faced with in order to reach full potential.

I find that taking that first step and searching for a therapist can be scary and intimidating. It's difficult to open up to someone who you feel that you know very little about. I would describe myself as eclectic with a love for music (especially Rock) and animals (cats). I am family oriented and enjoy reading and baking in my free time.

We don't often take the time to ask ourselves the big questions, like 'Who am I?' or 'How did I get here?' It's usually only when something negative happens that we seek answers. Counseling is one way to get you where you want to be. Whether you're concerned about your relationship, facing challenges with career or family, struggling with alcohol or drugs, or coping with the after effects of trauma, my hope is that you understand you're not alone. I’m here to join you in your journey of healing and self discovery. Working together, we will uncover the root of your difficulties, helping you find relief.

You know you want change but feel unsure where to start. Facing challenging life transitions can be frustrating and confusing. You may feel that your life is not what you expected it to be. Talking it through with friends and family still leaves you feeling lost.
