I've known Deborah for several years now both as my therapist and as my meditation teacher. I was referred to Deborah by my Doctor. I have seen a number of therapists over the years for an ongoing issue and am fully aware of what works for me and what doesn't. I personally need sincerity, honesty, clarify, trust, empathy and understanding and to know and feel that all of these things are genuine. With Deborah all of these things are assured. She is very genuine, approachable, understanding and wise. What ever is on my mind I can discuss with complete knowledge that it will be given her full attention and will be handled with a gentle and caring approach. Nothing I say I ever feel is inappropriate or awkward because there is always an understanding that for some reason it needs to be said.
Deborah is a calm and realiable presence. She draws not only on her psychological training but her interest in Buddhism, holistic healing, hypnotherapy and other specialisms. It is really up to you. If you wish to bring those things into your sessions they are available, it is your choice. For me this is crucial, I don't feel my issues are purely psychological but spiritual and emotional and together we are able to change focus to deal with any issue on any one of these levels depending on what feels most appropriate. For me this is one of the reasons Deborah stands out for me as someone I am happy to see and to entrust with my personal life. I would recommend her to anyone I cared about. read more
