Deborah has been super respectful and supportive with my life challenges and I look forward to talking with her each week! I love having an outside source to talk to that has no correlation with me!

She has been amazing and even though it’s only been a few sessions, I’m feeling so hopeful about the future

Since starting my sessions with Debbie I've noticed a change in me.. for the better.. even just as a person to chat to she is a lovely person.. and her insights and that are very helpful.. I gave a ways to go in therapy I think but I definitely feel it's heading in the right direction and my therapist has a lot to do with that. With Debbie I feel comfortable more than engine else I've tried therapy with and I'm going with the flow
