When useful, she focuses conversations on solutions and on the person’s own strengths rather than only on problems. Deborah works with common and complex issues such as grief, trauma and family conflict. She also supports people with attachment concerns, body image and relationship trust issues.

How Deborah's approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The counsellor follows the client’s lead, reflects what they hear and helps the client discover their own solutions. This approach is useful for grief, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and when someone needs space to be heard. Solution-Focused Therapy is brief and goal oriented. It helps people identify small, practical steps and build on what already works. This way of working often fits well for stress, coping with life changes and practical problems where clear next steps are helpful. Choosing an approach is collaborative. Deborah will discuss what feels right and adapt methods to match the client’s goals and preferences. Together they decide whether to focus more on exploring feelings, finding quick solutions, or combining both styles. Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit quick updates, reflection between sessions or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.Frequently asked
