I care deeply for my clients and I have many who have chosen regular
and long term therapy and find video support online helpful to build a rapport once they start to work with me. They like that I can RELATE to their issues and SEE & HEAR them as an INDIVIDUAL. I have experience in helping clients with depression complex grief, stress and anxiety, trauma and I have specific training in historic sexual abuse Domestic violence issues childhood sexual abuse abuse, ACE, CPTSD, self esteem and attachment issues and MENOPAUSE in both male and female which is associated
in coping with grief and loss, & intimacy related issues. One of my core skills is INNER CHILD work which I believe is deeply healing and effective As a mixed race multicultural individual I feel I have a unique perspective on how it feels to sense the otherness of oneself. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am PROUD of you and FOR YOU getting started! Welcome, Namaste. Love and light Debby.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Debby is a calming presence in a world of unknown She is kind and compassionate and is able to very quickly see you and create a bond. I believe because of Debby I have been able to see the positives, hope and possibilities. I highly recommend her.
In my ongoing journey of self-discovery and healing, Debby has been an indispensable guide and companion. From our very first session, it was evident that she possesses a rare gift for creating a space where one feels truly seen, heard, and understood. Debby's approach is deeply personal, tailored to my individual needs and experiences. She navigates moments of vulnerability with grace and empathy, offering a reassuring presence that instills a sense of calm amidst the storm. Her professionalism shines through, yet it is her genuine care and compassion that truly set her apart. Every session with Debby is a step forward, a journey toward greater understanding and growth. With her guidance, I have felt empowered to confront challenges and embrace opportunities for change. Through her support, I have discovered strength within myself that I never knew existed. In Debby, I have found not just a therapist, but a true ally on the path to healing. Her unwavering dedication and unwavering commitment to my well-being have made all the difference. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a compassionate and skilled partner in their own journey of self-discovery.

Debby is the kindest soul ever. I can only recommend her as a therapist. She’s patient, attentive and so supportive. I am so lucky to have her as a therapist.
It's still amazing how fast I "vibed" with Debby. It's truly a delight to work with her and kind of have her in my life now. I always look forward to the therapy session with her.
Debby is a kind, caring and giving person. She is always supportive and her personality is so positive, full of energy and enthusiasm. She has a wonderful sense of humor. The best part of Debby is she doesn't have an arrogant, I am the very intelligent therapist, attitude. She talks to me as a close friend. I have been in therapy for many years and I have had a variety of therapists. Nobody compares to Debby. She is sweet, kind supportive. She knows exactly how to define your problems and makes practical suggestions to solve these problems. Debby has a twinkle in her eyes and that adds to her endearing personality. She is awesome!!!
I have only had a few sessions with Debby thus far and I can say I'm happy she was matched with me. She understands where I am and is helping me really work through my challenges. But most importantly I am comfortable during my session with her.
You’re amazing
I am glad I got connected to Debby. I cannot stress enough how supportive she has been. She is so kind, considerate, compassionate and always there when you need her.
