Practical Approaches and Online Support

Deborah emphasizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a structured approach that helps people identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and learn practical strategies to reduce anxiety, low mood, and stress. CBT often involves setting small, achievable goals and practicing new skills between sessions to create measurable change.

She also incorporates coaching-oriented techniques to boost motivation and self-esteem, focusing on strengths, goal-setting, and action steps that support daily functioning and life transitions. This approach can be especially helpful for clients working on career shifts, parenting challenges, or rebuilding confidence after major losses.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Deborah works collaboratively with clients to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors treatment plans and adjusts methods over time so the work remains relevant and effective.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals. These formats offer flexibility for scheduling, let therapy fit into busy routines, and allow people to receive care from the setting that feels most comfortable for them.
