More about Deborah
- 20 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW-R
I am licensed in New York State with 20 years of experience as a clinical therapist and 15 years of experience in the field of healthcare. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self esteem, anger management, confidence and depression.
My experience comes from providing direct mental health services to adults over the age of 18. I take a holistic approach to wellness and my counseling style is warm, caring, supportive and interactive.
My experience is varied and I utilize strategies and techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, phychoeducation, Neurolinguistic Practice (NLP) and client centered therapy.
Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. Whether you choose to work towards enlightenment, increased insight or improved symptom management, I hope we can work together to develop a plan to achieve this.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
