I’m So Glad You’re Here! I know life is full of highs and lows. No matter what era you’re in, whether navigating substance misuse, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, or the challenges of being a people pleaser, I’m here to walk with you. As an LGBTQIA-affirming therapist, my goal is to offer a safe, supportive space where you can be your true self without fear of judgment. Together, we will break painful cycles and empower you to live more authentically.

We all experience life differently and sometimes trying to figure out how to handle those experiences can be overwhelming. I am here for you, so you don't have to do it alone. My goal is to provide you with a warm, safe, and inviting environment where I can help you with processing any thoughts and feelings you may have about life challenges. I am a LISW-S and have over 16 years experience working with adults, children, teens, families, and groups. My primary areas of focus have been anxiety, depression, trauma, family conflict, behavioral issues, anger management, stress management and sexual abuse.

I will give you the tools to help you better deal with life stressors while empowering you to do so.

Hello, I’m Deborah. I became a Clinical Social Worker (licensed in Delaware, Ohio, South Carolina, and Arizona) because I have a deep passion for helping others. With extensive experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I am dedicated to guiding individuals through life’s challenges with compassion, expertise, and a client-centered approach. My work focuses on helping clients identify and break free from limiting beliefs—often deeply ingrained from past experiences—that impact self-worth, relationships, and overall well-being. I specialize in working with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. Therapy is a vulnerable experience, and I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can be their authentic selves. My goal is to empower, uplift, and motivate those I work with, helping them recognize their strengths and build resilience.

I am a licensed psychologist in Ohio and a graduate of the University of Toledo. I have been serving children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families for over 35 years in a variety of settings. I maintain a part-time outpatient therapy practice while helping to lead a mental health agency in Virginia (where I live). Originally from Toledo, Ohio, I hope to serve clients who are in Toledo and/or the surrounding area. While my practice will be primarily via Telehealth, serving clients from the Toledo area will allow me to occasionally conduct in-person sessions. I love to help clients have a more compassionate understanding of themselves and others, heal through difficult circumstances, improve relationships, and achieve desired changes in their lives.

Greetings! I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) and have worked with offenders, anger management clients, couples, teens and adults struggling with ADHD, anxiety and depression. Through a strengths based approach, my clients learn more about themselves thus improving self-confidence, communication, mood and overall outlook on life. I love serving my teen and couples clients via the Gallup strengths test. This test helps individuals understand where their energy is highest and what they value most. It's not about "strengths", but values. I believe one of the best things we can do for ourselves is take the time to truly understand ourselves as this helps us learn to communicate effectively, be productive, overcome procrastination and more. This is one tool of many I enjoy using to help my clients.
