Rate Dr. Deborah (Deb) Kutner

The kind person I can turn my life over to and learn

This is my third set of sessions with Deb, I come back every year for 3 months and it has been three years now. I trust in her expertise and professionalism. Talking things out with her has given me the courage to face the storm of life, and I think I owe part of my life success to her; for me to enjoy life more and be more productive in my work. Thank you, Deb. :)

I hesitated a long time before trying Pride Counseling, and after just a few minutes with Dr. Kutner I knew that I made the right choice, it was entirely worth it. I don't think I could have a better counselor!

She's very sweet, understanding and supportive.

Dr. Kutner is an amazing counselor who listens as well as gives solid advice. Talking to her is like talking to friend.

I could not have found a better fit for myself. After years of therapy with so many, Deb simply put me at ease and I finally feel able to open up and let myself receive healing. I'm a work in progress and blessed to have her patience and guidance.

Dr Kutner is fantastic, very patient and understanding and always has sound and compassionate advise. I would recommend her to any one. She truly is the best psychologist I have had.

She’s genuine and makes me see things on such a different way. Plus she’s helped me learn not to apologize for being me. She always checks in, someone who really does care.

Kind, empathetic, knowledgeable , professional. Can’t ren comment enough !

Dr. Kutner is amazing on all levels, she listens, offers exercises to do, "solutions" and directions.

Dr. Kutner is outstanding . She is always available when I need it the most . She does not push me , she let me ride my wave and is besides me to accompany me on my therapy journey.

Dr. Kutner is phenomenal - she's not "just a therapist" who sits back, nods, and asks how you feel. She's truly a friend who engages with you and makes you feel heard - offering a ton of knowledge and expertise from the HEART. SO thankful for her and her wisdom, humor, and kind-hearted spirit!

Dr. Kutner has been fantastic, she's very human in her approach and I could not recommend her enough. All I can say is thank you to her and better help

After years of counseling, Dr Kutner is the best therapist I have ever had. She understands me in a way no one has. She has changed my life for the better.

Kind, attentive, experienced and knowledgeable. Dr.Kutner is professional and dependable. I’ve been with her for over three years and highly recommend her !

Dr Kutner is a professional second to none. She has helped me more than any other counselor in my 15+ years of counseling. She sees the truth about me and my life and still offers unconditional support. Dr Kutner is the reason I utilize this platform. My life is happy and full because of her.

Deb is the best!

Dr. Kutner, Deb as we talk, has shared so much of her life with me to help me understand and grow in mine. Her knowledge and understanding has let me open up and share my issues, big and small. She has brought a light to my life I didn't know was there and opened my life to positive possibilities. I so enjoy working with her and can now look forward to tomorrow. Deb has brought peace into my, beforehand, frightful world. Before working with Deb I existed each day, now I've learned how to live each day.

Deb is a life saver. I have come out of a dark tunnel thanks to her. She’s not stiff, formal and careless like many therapists I saw before her. Her feminism makes her so much more mature and progressive too. I just couldn’t have felt better without her. I am so glad I found her.

Therapy with Dr. Kutner (aka Deb!) has been a lifesaver for me during this global pandemic. Deb meets you where you are and facilitates self-compassion and self-acceptance. I’m so grateful to have found such a brilliant therapist; her feminist approach and open-minded worldview made her the perfect match for me. If you are looking for a kind, compassionate, warm and understanding therapist who can help you feel better, Deb is the one!

Conversations with Deb feels just like having a chat with your most trusted friend - easy and relaxed. We would always start with a comfortable, casual chat, then I'd describe my issues or thoughts, and Deb would share her ideas and perspectives in helping me process my thoughts, or identify the core of the rumination. We would also work on themes (on relationships in particular) for the week which helped me in staying focused on my goals. As someone who is new to therapy, I was initially hesitant and was feeling uncomfortable about the whole process. However, my experience with Deb has certainly made me a believer in the efficacy of therapy (especially for personal growth) and would highly recommend her for anyone who is curious about trying it out.

Dr. Kutner goes above and beyond to help her clients. She does not use a one size fits all approach, but gets to know you and then utilizes many methods to help you and discover how to best help yourself. Her style enables you to examine all aspects of your life and her kind, nurturing style makes it easy to be upfront and open. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is going through a life transition and is looking for a compassionate therapist to guide them through.

With Dr. Kutner, I love that I feel supported and treated with care with my personal experiences. She is gentle, caring, friendly, and has a depth of knowledge that I believe makes her a great therapist to work with. I genuinely feel lucky to have been able to work with her.

I spent weeks reading therapist biographies and reviews on the BetterHelp website before taking the step to sign up. I didn't know what to expect. Fear and anxiety played a big part in my life. Signing up for this website and working with Deb changed all that. Deb's gracious and compassionate nature gently guided me to a different way of looking at the world. Without a single negative word, she helped me. If you're reading this, and you are unsure about the next step... I can tell you that you're already making it by being here. Welcome to your next step, you're in great hands with Deb :)

I always feel like I'm supported and being checked on. I've only been using the messaging service but it's so great to feel heard and understood. Dr. Kutner also talks about her experiences and it helps and can resonate with me and help me understand my own mind.

Dr. Kutner understood my needs and concerns and is helping me find my motivation again.

Dr Kutner came into my life when I needed a therapist just like her. She is compassionate, intelligent and professional. Her ability to "get me" and understand issues at hand is witness to her capacity to listen without judgement. Thanks Deb!

I love therapy but have lost some of my faith in it as I’ve learned more about the ways that the more harmful aspects of our culture operates through it, often invisibly. And with how typical therapeutic approaches are not trauma-informed and fail to account for the full picture of what contributes to the stressors that bring us to therapy - the very real social, political, and environmental factors that go beyond our “mindset” or individual psychology. Working with Dr. Kutner is a breath of fresh air and genuinely helpful, as she comes from a feminist approach and looks at the whole picture. I would highly recommend her!

Dr. Kutner has dedicated herself to helping me grow and improve in ways I couldn’t have imagined. I have experienced so many “Aha!” moments that have allowed me to understand myself in a new way.

I was honestly about to give up after my first experience and decided to give it one more try. I am so thankful I did. Dr. Kutner has been a God send. She has given me hope when I truly thought there wasn't any. She is nothing short of amazing. The tools she has already given me in this short period of time I will utilize for life. It is a blessing to be able to talk to someone without judgement and they totally get you. I am just grateful for her.

After trying many counselors, I have been so thrilled to meet Dr. Deb! Unlike others, she doesn't throw worksheets and reflections at me, and she doesn't say the same thing repeatedly. She really listens and connects with me as a human being. I honestly think she'd be a great match for anyone because she's just so good!

I'm super happy with my counselor. Even though I'm not a people's person, she is so personable, she knows her craft and she's just special. I'm so grateful, beyond grateful.

Debb is amazing, such a lovely person with a professional and warm approach to counseling.

Dr. Kutner is a compassionate and an excellent listener, she is very approachable and easy to build a rapport with. She is extremely passionate in her chosen field of expertise and guides her clients to reach empowerment in all aspects of their lives and equips them with all the right tools to do do. She is a truly exceptional person, I have great respect for her and consider myself extremely lucky to be guided by her along my soul searching journey. I would highly recommend her to everyone, and I have!!! Thank you for being you Dr. Kutner!!

Deb is the most amazing person I have worked with. She helped me through every single step of the way. The manner in which she works through things is incredibly and her advice is so helpful. Truly an expert, I will always be happy with her work.

Amazing. Beautiful soul. So much knowledge.

Deb is like the wise confidante I've always wanted but with all the knowledge of a professional! She is kind, compassionate and really listens. Deb read my messages and responded to all of my concerns. I really felt like she really cared and listened.I didn't feel like she was distracted or didn't care just because I wasn't there in person. I didn't miss actually seeing my therapist in person or getting live feedback in normal conversation. For me this was just like regular, in person therapy but better. I had plenty of time to really think and process what Deb said. I had time to reflect and write my responses. I didn't feel rushed like in person. I wasn't going to run out of time. And my written conversations with her work as a journal. I've never journaled before. But now I have written records of our conversations for reference and guidance anytime I need it. You can't do that in regular therapy unless you take notes.That's really hard when you're crying in person and going through all of your therapist's Kleenex! What I got instead was an invaluable feeling of having someone to talk to that I could count on: a support system that I don't have in real life. From a person that would not criticize or judge. Which I guess is true for all therapists, but Deb Kutner is a gifted listener and healer with a warm and welcoming presence. You've got someone now! You just get this vibe that you're safe with her. And everything will be okay. I haven't gotten that vibe with every therapist I've had. Bonus, no stress relating to commuting to her office! I was so worried online therapy wouldn't work. Honestly the first therapist I tried didn't work for me. But it was easy to switch. No need to stress. No awkward phone call or in person breakup with a therapist! Better help customer service is great. They responded quickly and answered all my questions. So if you have any doubts, go for it. You have everything to gain and nothing to lose. Thank you Deb. Thank you so much for your help during such a difficult time in my life!

Debbi is pretty amazing.

Debbi has been great for me, the app made the best match possible. She is open, she gets me and gives very valuable advice. She does not push but takes your own pace to work at and is always there to answer quickly. I am very happy with the experience so far and I would warmly recommend her to anyone!

Understanding and has great tools. Tremendously helpful in a short time.

I really enjoy talking to Dr. Kutner – In the short time we've been talking, she has already helped me immensely and I really appreciate her empathetic and informative approach.

Debbi is encouraging and patient, and she's been a great help in gently guiding me towards looking at things more positively.

Debbie is an incredibly warm, tactful and empathic person. She has enabled me to deal with things that have caused me pain and frustration for years. I can't believe how much better I feel just a few months later.

Dr. Kutner related to me. She makes me feel comfortable and she's very outgoing. So comforting. Best counseling experience ever.

Debbi has helped me unravel certain inalienable truths and helped guide me on the best progressive path for my future. She's increased my confidence in myself and given me a meticulous outside perspective on how to better resolve my issues.

Dr. Kutner is Awesome. She made me feel welcomed and comfortable right away. Her cool attitude and positive vibe is perfect for me!

Dr. Deb Kutner is an extremely professional, caring empathetic person. Her ability to read the situation and the personality is amazingly accurate. Her compassion and generous gentle nature put me at ease within the first contact. The ability to be able to open up to her about my inner most worries and secrets was a wonderful relief. Anything that I said was only met with understanding, non judgmental and a calming response. Her methods are truly successful but not overwhelming. I am very thankful that I had the opportunity to be counseled by Dr. Deb as I believe that she is the key to my success in resolving my reason for seeking help. Very much an angel in disguise walking among us. I can not say thank you enough for giving me my life back and helping me take charge of my destiny and secure a future that has a happy outlook. Thank you so much!

Dr. Kutner has been incredibly helpful in guiding me on how to unpack my feelings and how to recognize unhealthy patterns and replace them with healthy ones. With her help I have gained a much better understanding of myself.

Debbi is awesome. She is very supportive and down to earth. I highly recommend her.
