Teletherapy for 10010

As a clinician, the therapeutic process is only meaningful and complete with the reciprocity and engagement of those I work with. Each individual is unique and their stories are interwoven with a rich tapestry of diverse emotions. By balancing the abstract, creative, philosophical, and introspective aspects of life with friendliness, compassion, empathy and care, I walk the path with you on your journey toward peace and happiness.

We are thrown into life without any guide. Life asks much from us, takes much from us and gives much to us. Learning how to fundamentally hold your own in your own existence, live by your own desires, your own passions, is central to living a life that you find meaningful and develop relationships that are deep leading to an overall sense of happiness. I help clients accept reality as it is, to learn to be themselves and to enjoy being themselves. Internal harmony is essential to human happiness. In sessions, clients discover the totality of their personhood, come to appreciate being alive, to thrive rather than to simply survive.

Do you feel uneasy, tense, or unsafe in your own body? Trapped by your own thoughts and emotions, or a nagging feeling or muscular tension that seem unrelated to your emotional state? I know that feeling; that sensation that we try to ignore but just won’t go away. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, the stress of everyday life or the aftermath of trauma, your body is the container that holds it all—thoughts, feelings, sensations—all our lived experiences that make us who we are. Some of these experiences can help us thrive, feel safe and connected and some can make us feel stuck, uncertain, and reactive.

My ideal client is someone who is stressed, burned out, or just dealing with everyday life challenges. They may feel stuck or unsure of what their next move should be. My clients need someone to listen to them—to be heard in a “safe space” where they can freely express themselves. They understand that everyone struggles and that it’s okay to ask for help. Their goals are to learn better ways to cope and deal with their issues. They want to live their best life without fear and anxiety but with courage and resilience.

Do you want to feel confident in your ability to navigate difficult experiences, whether past or present? Are you interested in practicing radical honesty, feeling comfortable in your skin, and experiencing deeper self-love and vulnerability? Are you willing to hold yourself accountable to what you envision to be your greatest self? Do you think that discomfort does not have to increase anxiety? Through strengths-based, anti-oppressive healing practices, I will guide you in uncovering the answers you have always held inside your deepest sense of self-knowing.

I invite you to step into a sanctuary of affirmation, warmth, and practical guidance with me, Dr. Deb, a personable and highly experienced licensed psychotherapist and relationship coach. I am here to guide you through life’s ups & downs and get you unstuck and feeling better. I will help you find actionable solutions to the issues you struggle with – work, breaks-ups, mood, anxiety, stress, sadness, unhealthy patterns, pain, depression, relationships, life goals, substances, communication, and so much more. Together we will untangle life’s complexities and find a path to increased happiness and balance. (Really!)

Do you feel stuck, disconnected, unfulfilled, or overwhelmed? In our work together, we can move towards a deeper connection with yourself, romantic partners, family, friends, or colleagues. As your therapist, I strive to help you enjoy greater intimacy, authenticity, freedom and meaning in life. I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families to shift unhealthy patterns, gain insight, improve communication, and feel more emotionally connected. My approach explores our foundational experiences and relationships in order to better understand how we feel and act within our current relationships.
