Hello, I’m Debbie.
As a qualified therapeutic counsellor, I understand that reaching out for help can be daunting, especially if it’s your first time. I appreciate your courage in taking this step.
I use an integrative approach, combining person-centered and psychodynamic theories to help you achieve your goals. Having worked in corporate business before becoming a counsellor, I know how consuming life can be—balancing work, family, relationships, and personal well-being.
I offer a warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you can explore your feelings, reflect on your past, and focus on what you want to change. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, work-related stress, redundancy, relationship issues, or grief, I’m here to support you.

About online counseling

- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

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.
