Deborah Keklak

I’ve never been a big fan of the idea of therapy and blurting out all your issues to a stranger. But a highly stressful resurgence of anxiety promoted me to find something, someone to help me through it. I was so lucky to be paired with Debbie when I signed up. She immediately felt like my new best friend and although still uncomfortable with talking over video, Debbie helped me through my most pressing issues. She helped me realize that for the most part, I knew how to respond to the stressors but couldn’t find the right tools. She helped me discover those tools in a few sessions, and gave me the confidence to believe in myself and my skills. She’s a gem and consider yourself lucky if you get paired with Debbie as your therapist.

Debbie makes me feel sane! It’s sad to say that that’s a great thing to get from a therapist, but she really listens and searches for reasons for feelings rather than telling me where my feelings are coming from. She helps me see all sides of things in a very non-condescending way.

Deborah is a thoughtful, caring therapist. I get something from her every session.

Deborah has been a great help in dealing with myanxiety and relationship issues.

She listens and gives great feedback.

Thank you

My sessions with Debbie have been wonderful. I feel more confident and validated. Debbie is an ally and a straight shooter. She’s a gem.

I love debbie! I would have canceled better help, but I really love her & want to keep working with her

Debbie is a very empathetic therapist, a great listener, gives active advice when I need it and genuinely cares about her clients.

Debbie is a great therapist and easy to talk to. She has wonderful tools to help with anger and childhood trauma.

I have tried therapy multiple times but it didn’t help me until I meet Deborah. Deborah is very patient, professional and a great listener. She has taught me a few exercises that have helped me through my self doubt, depression and anxiety. I would highly recommend her!

I love debbie! she’s been so helpful! she’s easy to talk to and makes me feel extremely comfortable talking about anything! THANK YOUU

It’s rare to find a therapist who is such a great listener AND very practical with tactics and strategies. In every session, Deborah held space for me and supported me with great questions, and also suggested ways to reframe my negative thoughts or make a decision. She’s an amazing therapist. Highly recommend.

I feel she really understood my concerns and worries. I do think we are on the right path and hope to learn more tools for self care.

Deborah is great to work with! Very patient, understanding and clear. Would highly recommend her.

Deborah has extremely helpful in giving me the tools needed to work through emotions. Highly recommend.

Deborah has been the support I have been longing for. This has been one of the best decisions I have ever made for myself. The video sessions, ease of scheduling and connecting are EASY....and that is huge....cause everything else in life is so damn complicated!!!

Deborah is wonderful. She's a good listener and we have deep conversations. She helps me see people from a perspective I hadn't considered. She also validates my feelings even if they're crazy because she knows I need to feel the emotion. She's taught me how to process my emotions which is opening a side of myself I never knew existed.

She is a kind and helpful therapist that definitely cares for her clients.

Deborah listens with empathy and provides relevant feedback that is delivered kindly and respectfully.

Deborah is amazing! She’s helped me work through so much, she is incredibly professional, and she’s always sympathetic. Her coping mechanisms are unmatched and I cannot recommend her enough

I feel that Deborah is a very helpful and experienced therapist.
I look forward to her advise and counseling. I always feel better after seeing her! She is giving me great tools to cope with my concerns and life challenges. I like that I can video chat with her in the comfort of my own home.

Deborah is a very caring and attentive counselor. I can see exactly how she would benefit another patient with how open and welcoming she is but I don't believe she is the correct counselor for me. This could be due to my difficulty opening up to people but I feel like I will be able to easily open up to the right counselor and I will know once I talk to them.

Great listener and has a very neutral perspective on things. Makes me feel calm after our conversations.

Thank you so much for all your wisdom and guidance. Definitely helped me through some some challenges

She’s great. Very good at dissecting and making you look at things in a different perspective that was never thought of. Enjoy her messages and conversations.

Deborah is an excellent therapist! I’m blessed to have her as my therapist!

Thank you for your kinds words. You have help me to better understand my situation and how to handle my emotions.

Deborah is the best counselor I've had abd I feel we are really working through a lot of my concerns that led me to seeking counseling.

Debbie has been amazing. I'm going through a traumatizing divorce right now, and she has helped me gently get control of my emotions, so they don't overtake me. I've been able to feel and release all the emotions that have come up and have been able to keep my head up and keep moving forward toward a bright future for my daughter and me. BetterHelp could not have come at a better time for me, and Debbie has been such a gift. I'm so grateful for her.

Deborah Keklak is a great listener and gives quality, timely and practical feedback and ideas

I've only had one session so these are just preliminary thoughts. Basically, I decided to go with Better Help because none of the counselors in my area will take insurance and they have to do sessions over the internet anyway. I thought I'd try Better Help because it's a technology first platform so my thinking was that it would attract therapists who believe in internet therapy rather than practitioners who are forced into it because of the current circumstances.

So far, my bet is paying off. Better Help's technology infrastructure is better than what my psychiatrist has access to and Deborah is much better and more natural online than he is. The only thing that would better help me manage my mental health is if you could file claims with my insurance or give me guidance in doing that. Seriously, navigating bureaucracies is one of the biggest challenges to my mental health.

Debbie has made such a wonderful difference in my life. She's saved me from myself. Highly recommended!

Lovely supportive person that has helped me immensely!!! She won’t disappoint you

Deborah has been absolutely incredible. She helps me identify feelings, emotions, ways to heal, improve and overcome obstacles in my life and marriage. By far the best therapist I have ever had. Thank you Deborah.

Debbie has been a wonderful therapist for me, I’m really pleased to have been matched with her. She has given me some great tools to help me manage the issues we are discussing, and I really feel heard when I share my problems. Debbie is thoughtful, kind, and skilled in her field! I look forward to continuing my sessions with her. Thank you Debbie!

A wonderful human who is able to explain modalities and explain what’s going on and help work through main issues at hands

I met with Debra to find a way to resolve a family conflict. I was new to counseling and was hesitant to reach out for help. Debra was a compassionate listener who immediately made me feel comfortable. She helped me gain insight and self-knowledge in order to incorporate new tools and behaviors that I could use in order to set boundaries and establish healthy communication with my family member. I have found a new confidence in setting boundaries in other areas of my life as well.

Deborah has been an absolute blessing in my life. She expresses genuine concern for my well-being and I know that whatever I am going through, I can be honest with her and she will support me. It has been a huge relieve no longer having to carry around the burden of the thoughts and worries that have been picking away at my mental health. I felt like I was slowly going crazy before I started sessions with Deborah. She made me feel safe and able to open up. Once these issues were in the open and we began to break them down, I stopped feeling so intimidated by them. She helped me clear me head. She helped me understand my emotions and manage them instead of being controlled by them. She gave me the support and tools to rediscover the positivity inside of me and snapped me out of the self-loathing I was feeling. She is the exact type of person a counsellor should be. I feel like she is there not just to get paid but that this is her genuine purpose in life. She really went way beyond my expecatations of what I thought counselling would be like and am forever grateful for her guidance and support.
