 "I feel so much better for my regular visits with Deborah. I feel much more relaxed. I was having emotional reactions to things associated with my husband’s daughter from a previous relationship and dealing with the split family situation. Logically I understood the situations but they made me feel very sad and unhappy. Through therapy with Deborah I have been able to understand why I was feeling that way and work to relieve the negative emotions by breaking down and better understanding similar and very early situations where these beliefs and emotions were first developed."
