Deb loves helping children, teens, adults and elders to feel competent and successful. With ten years of early childhood development experience she can brings developmental best practice into her strength-base, trauma-informed approach. Clients comment on her honesty and directness.

My goal as a therapist is to allow my clients a non-judgmental space where they can feel safe to express themselves, work through trauma, address their mental health, relationships and substance use. I want my clients to feel empowered to change their own lives and have the support and skills to be successful. I am a strength-based therapist who uses cognitive behavior therapy, DBT, motivational interviewing and solutioned focused therapy to help clients meet their goals. I accept most major insurance plans, probation vouchers and Medicaid.

I believe counseling can be used for many things... Addressing a crisis or trauma, identifying a goal & developing a path toward it, resolving current concerns and even sometimes helping to clarify why you feel differently than you used to. You are the expert on your life. My job is to help you fine tune that expertise and develop skills that contribute to you leading the life you want. I am not here to give you advice or tell you what to do, but rather to work with you as you address the challenges, questions or concerns you may be facing.

The idea that sustainable happiness is an unattainable goal, is a tricky one. It's that thing we say to ourselves: "if I just ____ then I will be happy ...or if they just ____ then I will be happy." I prefer the idea of moving toward being more content. Isn't content what we feel when we are comfortable, calm, validated and without anxious or depressive thoughts that mess with our days? Often, if not almost always, we have traumas (big or small) and mean/sad/negative inner voices and thoughts that, if we process them, we can get to our contentedness.

Every person is unique and capable of realizing their potential in an optimal environment. However, life is filled with so many challenges and it is not unusual to feel discouraged or unable to meet those challenges. Building a relationship based on acceptance and trust with my clients is my priority. I listen carefully and help them develop an understanding of what has led them to unsatisfying thoughts, feelings and behaviors. We explore and identify how significant past experiences have shaped their present life.When working with teens, parents are essential part of the therapy and always welcome to collaborate.
