I have been super happy with the energy and communication that we have. Very calm, good at listening, also good at helping you sort the problems on your own with just some small cues. Very glad to have met Debbie.

I really enjoyed working with Debbie. She helped my son manage anxiety and anger, and she helped me to interact and parent my son. She is a good listener, and when I felt stuck or not sure what I wanted to say, she jumps in with great lead questions. She is friendly and fun, and I would highly recommend her. I miss talking to her!!

Debbie has been my therapist for six months now and has done so much for me in such little time. This past year I have had a lot of things change in my life, which I don't take well. But with Debbie as my therapist, I was able to grow from everything changing in my life. After meeting with her weekly I truly feel like a changed person. I have learned so many healthy coping mechanisms and have learned why I am the way I am, which has helped me grow and heal a lot of trauma. On top of her being a great therapist, she is also just a great person in general. She makes sure to get to know you and remember the little things, she also makes you extremely comfortable talking with her about anything. I would recommend her to literally anyone.

Debbie has been so helpful as I navigate a challenging new time in my life. She has the experience and insight to support me in the ways that I need and is always available between live sessions to check in. I have been so impressed with my experience so far and would recommend her to any of my friends or family looking for a therapist.

She sounds like Mary Steenburgen, which I love. She's very supportive and caring, and we have had conversations in which she remembers things I forgot I even said, until she reminds me. It feels like she really listens and has great perspective and good advice when it comes to the issues I talk to her about. I recommend her to anyone!
