About Deborah
Facing difficult emotional and interpersonal challenges in our lives can be frightening but can also be a time for growth and healing. Talking with someone who listens without judgment, understands your concerns, and helps clarify issues can be invaluable. I am a culturally competent therapist with experience working with various populations including children, adolescents, adults, couples, military families, and K-12 students. I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Northern Arizona University in 1994 and received my Master's in Counseling from the University of Phoenix in 1998. I have over ten years of experience as a clinician working in a variety of community mental health settings and academia. I taught elementary school for 12 years and maintain my teaching certificate in early childhood education (Birth – Age 8/Grade 3). Currently, I work as a K-12 School Counselor in a public school. My therapeutic approach is solution-focused and strength-based. I utilize evidence-based therapy techniques, such as mindfulness-based interventions and CBT, to address symptoms of PTSD, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, relational problems, and/or other life stressors. My role as a therapist is to support you and to challenge you on your path to self-improvement and self-empowerment. Through a collaborative process, we can explore and address the underlying causes of problematic behaviors, beliefs, and feelings. Together, we can begin the process of healing. Read more Show less
