Getting to know Debra Connolly

Life can be a wild ride sometimes! If you find yourself caught in the constant cycle of overthinking, battling indecision, and wrestling with low mood or motivation. Or, are you struggling with grief, feeling depressed, or anxious about the future. Are you looking for solutions to feel better?

What should a new client know about working with you?

I am here to help. My mission is to help you overcome life's challenges. Is your child struggling in school with ADHD, anxiety, social, or emotional issues? Let's collaborate within an empathetic space to create a healthy and balanced solution as a family. My approach is person-centered as I believe that therapeutic services should be unique to each client and family. I believe in the importance of meeting the client where they are, and fostering a safe, comfortable, and nonjudgemental therapeutic space. I use modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Seeking help is the first step in the healing journey and I would be honored to walk that journey with you and your family. I believe in the power of relationships and we will work together to build a strong relationship and empowerment for yourself and family.
