More about Debra
- 18 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
I am licensed in the UK with 18 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with various issues.
I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment.
Taking the first step in seeking help is a brave step. By using counselling sessions I will help you to explore and understand emotions about yourself and your issues. Counselling helps you change your perspective and help you have a more fulfilling and happier life.
I am trained to use the person-centered theory in counselling but may bring in different theories, interventions, and tools to help you through your specific issues.
As a Counsellor, I am here to support you through your difficulties and help you make the change you wish.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
