I am not for everyone, and that is okay. I show up in session as my quirky self, I am not a fan of toxic positivity, and my initial goal is simply to build a therapeutic rapport with each client. Safe relationships are key to healing trauma, and that is where I shine. My clients usually have significant trauma, have PTSD or C-PTSD, have experienced or are experiencing intimate partner violence, or have a personality disorder. I love helping people who want to work on negative core beliefs with building positive views of self in a way that feels authentic and not over the top.

I have experience treating depression, bi-polar, and anxiety conditions that are interconnected with substance abuse / self-medicating behaviors.
Meaningful personal growth and self-efficacy can be realized by any person, couple or family in the face of personal challenges. These can be internal (despair, depression, grief, anger, or anxiety), external (lack of supportive relationships, disharmony), and interactive (blaming, perceptions and reciprocal reactions to each other's behaviors). How well you manage to cope, survive and eventually thrive in the midst of these challenges can be aided by establishing a genuine collaboration with a competent therapist. Teletherapy makes it even easier to select and engage with a licensed counselor who fits your particular needs.

I teach some clients how to recognize the subtleties of verbal abuse and then we build your personal power and desensitize you to the past pain.
If you have you been upset about your life or relationship, you just may feel better sooner than you ever thought you would. I can help you reduce the emotional pain while increasing your confidence at the same time. I have been referred to as a "no-holds-barred life changer." I use Psychotherapy, Hypnotherapy and EFT as tools to speed up your growth process. When you walk in my office you are a person not just one of my clients. We will find out what your specific needs are and then match the best treatment for you. www.drdeborahcooper.com

I believe strongly in using body and brain therapies to help people heal more effectively that talk therapy alone through Somatic Experiencing, Internal Family Systems, and Brainspotting. I also bring specialized training to integrate faith and spirituality into the therapeutic process as much or a little as the client prefers for holistic care of heart, mind, and spirit.
