About Debi
Her counseling style is interactive and engaging. Sessions are aimed at helping people make practical changes and find clearer direction. Debi focuses on building collaboration so clients feel involved in each step rather than told what to do.
She uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to the person in the room. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps break down unhelpful thoughts and habits into manageable steps. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques are used when emotion regulation and coping skills are needed.
People come to her for many concerns: stress, relationship struggles, grief, parenting strain, sleep or eating problems, and anger. She also supports those facing career crossroads, compassion fatigue, and substance use issues. Additional focus areas include attachment challenges, codependency, and forgiveness work.
In sessions she aims to be empowering and practical. Conversations often include goal setting, skill practice, and straightforward feedback. Debi describes her work as a partnership focused on helping people move toward a fuller sense of possibility.

Approaches that guide online work and practical skills
Debi commonly draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) when working with people. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, reflecting what matters to the person, and building a trusting working relationship. CBT looks at how thoughts and behaviors connect and uses small experiments and skill practice to change unhelpful patterns.She also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills when strong emotions get in the way of daily life. These approaches are useful for issues like anxiety, anger, substance concerns, and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That may mean trying different techniques and adjusting the plan based on progress and feedback.
Confirm session formats before booking so you know what options are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow quick check-ins between appointments. It also lets people use talk-based strategies, skill coaching, and behavior planning in a way that fits daily life rather than requiring a long commute.
