Choosing to get started with a therapist can be awkward and daunting. I try to make that process less uncomfortable and feel like not another "thing on the to do list" but something rather you can enjoy. I have worked with all ages, and all walks of life. I believe that we have the answers and solutions within ourselves, sometimes we just cannot access them, or we get stuck in what I like to call "ruts" and roadblocks. I also believe we as people are inevitably strong, and sometimes just need someone to believe in us and remind us of our strengths and potential.

I am Debbie Kochakji, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and I provide virtual tele health counseling primarily for adults. This is a GREAT first step for change! I use a direct approach, paired with dedication, compassion and humor. The ultimate goal is for the client to gain a sense of empowerment for growth and healing to achieve a more fulfilling life. Together we will work through challenges and create a tool box of lifetime skills and strategies. Virtual counseling provides safe and easy access to make those changes you are seeking! The focus would be on identifying needs, goals and strategies to increase social competency, self-esteem, problem-solving, conflict resolution, coping skills, and communication.
Focus will be on identifying patterns that do not work, and replacing strategies that will work more effectively.
Every individual is different. I start where the client is, identifying and assessing; goals, priorities, cultural norms, values, feelings, and your communication style. We will work together for you to gain insight into your strengths and challenges, and patterns and perceptions that guide you. I am truly passionate to assist you through this process.

Hi. I'm Steve.
Do you ever wonder why, no matter how many different things you've tried, you fall back into old behaviors that hurt you and/or those you love? Do you wonder why your emotions take over and leave you feeling incapable or overwhelmed? Do your emotions get in the way of effectively communicating when it matters the most?
We all face questions like this, and the most fulfilling part of my work is helping people like you find answers to those questions. I don’t have any “one-size-fits-all” solutions, but together we will work to identify what drives your responses and what you can do to make lasting changes. We will work to help you anticipate and prevent issues before they appear, to feel emotional intensity rising and calm it down, and to exit stressful situations before doing or saying something you’ll regret. I don’t believe that our worst moments define us. I DO believe that each of us is capable of overcoming past struggles and finding a new path. I look forward to working with you as you try to find yours.
