Magnolia Counseling Inc
Holistic Counselor

Whether you have had a difficult time for a while, or for a short time, Deb believes you can visualize and achieve a less distressful life by recognizing the personal strengths you already have and learning new skills. She would be honored to be your guide! Her approach focuses on empowering people to more mindfully attend to their thoughts and feelings and choose more self-affirming behaviors. She believes everyone’s “story” deserves to be heard with respect in a safe, non-judgmental, validating, and trauma-informed environment. She is comfortable addressing disorders of mood, anxiety, personality, and substance abuse in adults 18 and older. She also encourages physical and spiritual self-care toward the goal of overall wellness.

Deb has been working in the mental health and substance abuse fields for 9 years. She graduated from Smith and has an MA in Professional Counseling from McKendree University with coursework at Johns Hopkins. She worked in MD with young adults before moving back to the South Coast 5 years ago. Her integrated approach can include strategies from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), as well as Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET). She has been certified as a personal trainer through the American Council on Exercise (ACE) since 2022.

Now expecting insurance from BCBS, United Healthcare, Tufts, Aetna, and Harvard Pilgrim.
