Getting to know Debra Schmid

Hi there, I'm Debra! So a little about me: I earned my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy (LMFT) from the University of La Verne in 2006 and have since dedicated my career to supporting individuals struggling with trauma, attachment issues, and anxiety. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and EMDR. My focus I appreciate a collaborative approach with clients and if something isn't working we both collaborate on what may be off and what needs to be fixed to continue forward on our path in treatment. My approach I became a therapist because I have always found fulfillment in helping others through life's challenges. I believe in creating a space where clients feel safe, heard, and empowered to work through past experiences and build a healthier future. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, guiding clients toward healing and personal growth. My communication style I try to create a safe and light space for clients to be able to express their needs. I also try to keep a non-judgmental approach towards any issues that are occurring. My goals for you We will set goals based on the onset, frequency and duration of symptoms and work towards relief or increase positive coping skills to help alleviate the symptom.
