About me

I am a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with 20-years-experience. I have worked with clients in a variety of settings from community mental health, to private practice, to residential substance abuse. My clients have presented with many different concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, panic disorders and addiction to name a few.

My firm belief is that despite the life experiences a person may have had, they are never broken. My job is to point them toward that healthy part of themselves and help it to strengthen. My goal is to help people rediscover their innate peace, happiness, and well-being.

My counseling style brings together cognitive, holistic, and integrative. I don’t have a cookie-cutter approach to counseling, because every individual is different, and so the counseling approach needs to be flexible to develop the best fit for that person. I see the counseling relationship as a partnership where we work together creating a plan of treatment that will help you work toward goals that are important to you.

Counseling can be a big step into a future that is more fulfilling. Let’s make your life the best it can be.

I look forward to hearing from you.

I feel so fortunate to have Deborah as my therapist. She is obviously highly experienced, very knowledgeable and wise. She is willing to help and offers common sense approaches to challenges. I always look forward to my sessions with her.

Deborah is a wonderful, patient listener. Two years ago, she coached me through a stressful time in life (impending parenthood, changes at work). My wife remarked out loud at the time that I was doing a better job with communication in our relationship as well. Being able to check in regularly with Deborah makes me function at life in a more positive way.

Throughout the months of working with Debbie she has really been able to understand and grasp the whole of what I want to work on. It’s her clarity and ability to convey clear messages to help me through the struggles I deal with. I have grown so much in this process and Debbie has been a wonderful counselor to work with.

Debbie has made me see life in a completely different way. I am learning to get quiet and listen to my own inner wisdom. I have become more centered and focused since working with her. She has an amazing ability to listen and guide. I never felt like counseling helped me until working with her. She had also made me realize the power of my thoughts.

I am so happy I signed up at BetterHelp, they not only paired me with the perfect counselor, they have helped me change my life! Thank you.

Deborah is a phenomenal therapist. I immediately recognized how invaluable she'd be from the very first session I had with her. She also has been supportive of my hardworking attitude and so I've been applying everything I've learned from our sessions and growing at a very fast rate!
