I like how she is really concerned about my feelings and listens so well to what I have to say. She has really helped me see, that maybe I have been misreading my own issues. And she checks on me during the week and that really helps, to know she cares that much.

Deborah is absolutely wonderful! I never thought I would ever have the chance to be able to express myself to anybody in an uncensored, unfiltered way. I have many stories trapped in me, and struggle with chronic feelings of unworthiness and unwelcome. She has been patient, helpful, encouraging, reassuring and genuinely healing. I sincerely don't know what condition I'd be in now with out her help. I can't endorse her enough!

Written on Apr 08, 2023 after therapy with Deborah for 2 weeks on issues concerning grief, eating disorders, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue
Deborah has helped me work through several issues in the past six months, from a problem with addiction in my marriage to a grief issue relating to the traumatic death of one of my grandsons. It surprises me every time how she manages to help me draw things out from somewhere deep inside, and shine some light on it. She did an intervention with me helping me deal with my recent trauma which gave me so much more peace and the ability to deal with it in a healthier way. She is kind, gentle and very responsive to what I need on any given day, even if I sometimes struggle to put it in words. I am grateful for her help.

I've just started with BetterHelp and having Deborah as my therapist but she has provided a welcoming space for me. I feel like I can let go of any hesitation to be open and pour myself out without feeling any judgement. She always asks great questions and has neutral feedback.
