Teletherapy for 10010

I am a clinical social worker with over thirty years of experience working with adults, adolescents, couples, and families. My role as your therapist is to compassionately support personal growth, using empirically supported interventions, and providing practical strategies to handle life's many stressors. I provide culturally sensitive and trauma-informed care, and welcome all ages, genders and sexual identities. Curiosity, empathy, and validation of your personal truth are essential components of my practice and I treat my clients as partners in developing their own life solutions and healing process.

“To love well is the task in all meaningful relationships, not just romantic bonds.” bell hooks. Would you like professional support to understand and heal your relationships? if you are searching for a safe therapeutic space where you can openly express your emotions and find solutions to your issues, I will be a suitable therapist for you. I am a relational psychotherapist, clinical supervisor, and educator, and I will work with you in coping with heartaches caused by trauma, ruptures, loneliness, discord, and loss and support you through your healing.

You’re my ideal client! I want to meet you wherever you are & journey with you to where you want to go. Ever pass people who look impossibly high-functioning/put together - makes you feel like you'll never get there? So many look in a mirror & wonder who’s staring back & how they became who they are now.  To understand you, we first have to understand the story you’ve created from the beginning.  Letting others into dark corners of your life, where hurt hides, can be scary & painful.  But, it’s in those moments where healing happens. My role, in your journey, is to stand beside you, in the darker places, & help you turn on a light

I specialize in therapy for self-esteem, anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, adult Third Culture Kids/multicultural identity concerns. I also focus on relational difficulties in the context of career and dating, as well as social, couple and family relationships. I use various evidence-based techniques and relational approaches, but I will always tailor therapy to fit who you are, what matters to you, and how you hope to grow. In therapy, I strive to authentically connect with you and ensure a therapeutic space that is safe and productive. Going at your pace, we work together to find solutions and move towards your goals.

I have current openings for a few new patients, and I am in-network with some major insurances (Aetna, Wellfleet.) I see a life well-lived as a creative process, and I help those I work with to realize their own talents and potential. Some look for short-term support during a period of loss or uncertainty. Others get into deeper work to address older wounds and patterns. Maybe you just need to talk to someone and see what happens. Whatever your situation, you are the true expert on your own life, and I would focus on solutions that work for you.

Embarking on a therapeutic journey, whether for the first time or with a fresh perspective, can be a daunting task. It’s perfectly normal to feel apprehensive or even fearful. If you’re seeking effective strategies to manage stress, enhance your relationships, or navigate recurring challenges, you’ve come to the right place. Here, you are free to be yourself as we work together to find the solutions you seek. My therapeutic approach is rooted in specializing in trauma, anxiety and depression.

You are probably here because you find yourself feeling stuck, with no control over what you are going through, being unkind to yourself, unable to stop your mind from racing or going into the worst scenarios. Fighting this can be frustrating and exhausting. You don’t have to do it alone. Through our work together you will be able to have a better understanding of your own patterns of behavior, why they are there, how to catch yourself falling into them and how to break with them when you consider they are not being helpful anymore.

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!)
