Deborah's career in Addictions Counseling began in 1992 at Eugenia Psychiatric Hospital. Her specialty groups consisted of issues related to addiction, couple's counseling, sexual abuse, eating disorders and anger management. In 1998 she joined University of Pennsylvania/Hall Mercer in Philadelphia. She was charged in devising a new program for a unique population with mental health issues and substance abuse. She designed and formulated from the ground up. Her main goal is to assist clients in obtaining sobriety, helping to heal broken relationships, engaging actively in thier lives and recognizing new possibilities.
In Deborah's private practice of the last 25 years, she developed an expertise with couple's. This led her to pursue continued education to become a trained Imago Therapist. Imago Therapy is designed to provide a safe space for the couple to communicate in a more structured manner. The goal, each person will have their voice heard, while learning to listen.
Deborah's practice focuses on assisting clients into the journey of recovery, and living one day at a time sober. She also works with couples, facilitating the conversations that build trust, and safety; leading the couple to become curious about each other.

I work with individuals that are contemplating sobriety. Complete a full substance abuse assessment, begin individual therapy and insert structure and support to each individual. We begin together to unpack the problems that exist, relating directly to substance abuse and how it has effected the individual. A very good percentage of my clients get sober and stay sober based on our work together.
