About Deborah

She aims to make sessions straightforward and approachable for people who are anxious or under stress. Debbie meets clients with calm, respect and sensitivity, and she tailors conversations to each person's needs.

She has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Background and approach

That experience includes helping people cope with anxiety, stress and depression. She also supports people who are dealing with grief, loss and anger. Debbie helps people talk through relationship difficulties and the practical pressures of parenting.

She offers a steady, non-judgemental space to work on small steps and realistic goals. Plans are adapted to what feels most useful for each person. Sessions are aimed at making daily life more manageable.

Conversations focus on practical ways to handle strong emotions and improve coping skills. Debbie works collaboratively to agree what to try between appointments. She encourages people to take the first step at their own pace and is present to support them through change.

Approaches and online therapy options

Debbie draws on person-centred work and other evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. Person-centred work focuses on listening, empathy and working at your pace to understand what matters to you; it is often used when people need a calm space to talk through emotions. She also uses practical, evidence-based methods that help with managing anxiety, low mood and day-to-day coping by teaching straightforward tools and small behavioural steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss what you want to change and try different techniques if needed. This is collaborative - goals and methods are decided with you, and plans are adjusted as progress is reviewed.

Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video sessions let you see and hear the counsellor for a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can be easier if bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, updates between sessions or people who prefer written reflection. These options help fit therapy around work, family and daily routines while keeping the focus on practical support and progress.
