Licensed Mental Health Counselor

Hi, I am Deb. I have been a therapist for greater then 30 years. I provide therapy services at our Springfield clinic.

I have recognized that entering into counseling services may not always be an easy process.

I reflect to all persons that I am involved in working with “that we ALL have a backpack! It weighs on any of us to a varying degree at various points in time.” I offer each person I talk with the understanding of the strength that person is using to become involved in talking with someone.

I have received extensive training with disorders of trauma, PTSD, emotional regulation, varied intensities of anxiety, as well as impacts of substance usage.

Our working together will involve varied types of therapy techniques and modalities based on each individual’s needs. In addressing your concerns, we will use approaches of exploring feelings, recognizing and working off your strengths and becoming aware of the impacts that are occurring as a result of the negative emotions that are impacting upon you.

I believe that each person who becomes involved in therapy services will experience the capability of “feeling heard and listened to”. We will work together in a manner that has you feeling capable of using the techniques that are offered.
