Deborah is very kind and has a great personality. We connected instantly and I’ve been able to tell her things that I’ve held in a long time. She not only listens to your issue(s) but also gives feedback and has you brainstorm with her on possible solutions. I was weary about started therapy and actually debated it for a long time, but Deborah has put my mind at ease. I have recommended BetterHelp to a few friends because of Deborah.

Hello to you my name is Deborah Fitzpatrick and I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) in the state of Ohio. After graduating from Cleveland State University in 2018 with my Master's Degree in Social Work I began working with a variety of populations that included individuals with a wide range of concerns such as depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, career challenges, stress, etc.
My style of doing therapy includes using a Strengths-Based and Empowerment Approach as my goal is to support you in achieving the quality of life that you desire for yourself. I generally utilize the therapeutic approaches Cognitive Behavioral, Humanistic and Trauma-Focused Therapy in my work with individuals however my priority is to work with you to create an individualized treatment plan and goals that best aligns with your needs.
There are many challenges that we may face in life and it is important to have support available to assist us with coping with these challenges. It takes courage to seek assistance when facing challenges as it is not always a comfortable path to take however if you are interested in receiving support, I look forward to connecting with you and taking the journey together!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
