About me

As a licensed therapist with extensive experience supporting diverse communities, I specialize in helping individuals navigate complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on addressing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and addiction through a compassionate, culturally responsive lens.

I am particularly passionate about working with women, multicultural populations, and individuals facing challenges related to self-love, communication, life purpose, and interpersonal dynamics. My approach honors each person's unique journey, with a deep commitment to understanding the intersections of personal experience and systemic influences.

Drawing from evidence-based practices, I create a supportive environment where clients can explore healing, develop resilience, and cultivate meaningful personal growth. Whether you're struggling with mood disorders, caregiver stress, or seeking to overcome past challenges, I'm dedicated to walking alongside you with empathy and professional expertise.

Fantastic Therapist only been working with her for a short time but as a retired Speech Language Pathologist myself she has helped me so much and is a breath of fresh air in the therapy profession in general!

Written on Oct 15, 2026 after therapy with Deborah for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, grief, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, anger management, and coping with life changes

Very helpful, listens well, and is very willing to dive in and use all of the tools she has to help.

New to Better Help and so far feeling very comfortable sharing with Mrs. Deborah Peyton. She is very easy to speak with and I like when she asks me questions to prod me on, when I am stuck with sharing. I am happy with her and feel she would make many others feel at ease as she has me.
