Getting to know Deborah Pagano

I am a nationally certified and licensed professional counselor associate in Connecticut. I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Fairfield University. My journey as a clinician is fueled by a deep-rooted desire to help individuals discover hope and achieve transformative growth. Embracing an integrative, person-centered, strengths-based approach, I weave cognitive-based and solution-focused methodologies into tailored plans, ensuring my clients feel safe, respected, and heard. My passion extends to supporting adults, couples, parents, families, caretakers, teens, and college students. I work with individuals to help develop effective strategies for managing anxiety, stress-related issues, relationship struggles, trauma, grief, depression, and career counseling.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I firmly believe in the potential for extraordinary growth within every individual, regardless of their past challenges. While reaching out can be intimidating, I see it as a courageous and crucial step where the journey towards restoration begins, and she considers it a privilege to be a part of that journey.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

When working with a new client, I first conduct a thorough and detailed intake and then ask the client to define their goals. I like to revisit the goals often to keep on track and revise as needed. I ask for feedback throughout the work instead of waiting until termination, so we don't stray. Keeping in mind, we are a team and you, the client, will make progress faster the more you participate and practice outside the sessions.
