I am passionate about helping people uncover and heal emotional wounds contributing to anxiety, depression, and anger. In addition, through assessments and exploration, I can help you discover the life patterns that have kept you "stuck". Awareness of these patterns is a step toward freedom. One way to discover these patterns is through the use of the Enneagram. I am an Enneagram CP Certified Professional. See information about a group currently forming below.

Everyday life isn’t supposed to feel quite this hard or overwhelming, right? Maybe you wish you could manage your emotions or stress better.

Hi, my name is Deborah and I have the honor of empowering people on their courageous journeys to find ease and joy in living again.

I have a passion for helping people find their way. I have been a therapist for over a decade, helped hundreds of individuals and their families, but I have a particular interest in supporting those that are in the "odyssey years". That period of searching and wandering that often starts in late adolescence and for many, lasts upwards of around a decade. Trying to figure out who you are and how that relates to or is impacted by your family, your friends, your job/career, and your life aspirations can be simultaneously exhilarating and overwhelming. You are in the driver's seat, I can just help you navigate the twists and turns.

My goal is to meet you where you are. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, grief , trauma, or relationship issues we can work together to raise and strengthen your insight, self awareness, and resiliency. Life is never a straight line nor are we always given direction. Many of us are working through a variety of life transitions and I can help you by being an advocate and having a relationship built on honesty, knowledge, and trust. Working together and collaborating to find your strengths and opportunities for growth is what I do best. Please call and let me know how I can help.

How amazing would it feel to be totally accepted and unconditionally supported, where YOUR needs are the priority? You're likely here searching for someone who will truly understand you, who knows how to help you with whatever is hurting right now. Does your past make today harder? Are you feeling frustrated and disconnected within your relationships? Do you wake up every day feeling discouraged or stuck? Or struggle to fall asleep because your brain can't stop worrying? We're a group of knowledgeable, compassionate clinicians who are invested in figuring this all out WITH you. Let us help you. We can tackle these things together.

Looking for a safe, non-judgmental space to share your story? Be understood? Gain insight into your relationships and coping patterns, so that you can begin to thrive and not just survive? I've got you! I believe counseling is a partnership in which we work together in developing and implementing a plan to reach your goals. Each person is unique and different, and I adjust according to each person's needs. I believe that authenticity and empathy are the two most important things for a counselor to possess. In addition, I am always learning new techniques and tools to help my client's grow.

As a sex addiction therapist, trained EMDR clinician, and nationally certified psychotherapist, I work with individuals struggling with intense urges, emotions, and conflict. New clients come to me feeling isolated, in pain, and on edge due to having nowhere to express their toughest emotions. Many grew up in a traumatic family of origin with messages like "Suck it up" and "Don't cry" being taught to them. My clients come to me to say the things that they couldn't otherwise say to anyone else.

Welcome! Perhaps you're here because you feel overwhelmed or consumed by your strong emotions; your own voice gets lost in the chaos. Perhaps you find yourself doing all of the work in your relationships while sacrificing so much for others and still feeling alone. Perhaps you prioritize the needs of others, to your own detriment, while compromising on boundaries in an effort to seek acceptance. You know you want authentic connection, but anxiety and depression cripple your ability to build the life you want. Your needs matter, and I would be honored to hold space for the parts of you that long to be heard.
