She has been amazing. Only 2 sessions in and I feel like I'm doing better and gaining control back of my life and myself. I look forward to our sessions and the environment with her makes it safe and comfortable.

Working with Debra has been so helpful! Her input and guidance is so spot on even in just the short time I’ve been working with her. She always reads my journal entries which is helpful because it makes our video sessions so productive. It’s very clear she is experienced because her perspective is so well rounded. I would recommend Debra to anyone.

It’s to early for a real review but I will say that it seems like we are a good match and that she is more than capable of helping me with the many issues and traumas I have and she does not back down she is not afraid to confront my issues and traumas which are deep, very hard, and very traumatic. She stands up to them with the confidence that she will help me through this which gives me the hope I need
