I have been in practice since 1975 working with infants, children, adolescents, adults, and the elderly, in individual, couple, and family psychotherapy. I also provide psychological testing including personality, neuropsychological, psychoeducational (e.g., learning disability, ADHD, giftedness), developmental disability, career, forensic, and parenting time evaluations). My training includes humanistic (e.g., client centered & Gestalt), play therapy, family systems, biofeedback, neurofeedback, hypnotherapy, cognitive behavioral, substance abuse/dependence therapy, goal-oriented therapy, behavior therapy, and ADHD coaching. My approach is eclectic and, in a joint-effort with the client, the therapy is tailored to the person and their problems to replace painful or destructive patterns of thoughts and behavior with more positive ones.

As a therapist, I believe in the power of change. In order to foster the process of change, the client must develop a trusting, therapeutic relationship with their provider. I strive to create a safe, comfortable space for you to work toward self-improvement. We will collaborate to develop the tools you need in order to make the changes you seek in your life. It is my hope that through therapeutic intervention you will feel empowered and find new ways of thinking, behaving, feeling, and develop a strong sense of self. Most importantly, I believe in giving yourself a fresh start; a second chance; an opportunity to turn over a new leaf​. I work with adolescents and adults and provide individual, couples, and family therapy services. I specialize in a variety of areas including mood disorders, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions.

Trauma blocks our ability to see our own healing power. It derails our confidence in our amazing strength, radiance, and perseverance. I help people work through difficult events by helping them connect with this power already present within; I guide people in their journeys toward uncovering and embracing their own inner wisdom, creativity, and strength. Having someone witness and feel your joys and pains with you may be the most healing aspect of therapy. I offer you a safe space for us to explore the darkest and most difficult places together. You don't have to do it alone. Though we cannot control our emotions, by making friends with them we can find peace and maintain greater control over our lives. I hope to guide this process of embracing the colorfulness of the turbulent human heart, at a rate that is both gentle and challenging.

"Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; Who looks inside, awakens." -Carl Jung

As human beings, we often need help and guidance to be able to look deeply enough into our own hearts to truly heal and awaken, and to actualize our own unique nature. It is Debora's passion as a therapist to help others interested in this process.
