Hello, my name is Deborah Downey, but you can call me Deb.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Addiction Counselor.

I want to congratulate you on having the courage to take the steps towards self-discovery and improving your life.  

     I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Addiction Counselor.  I specialize in working with issues that include: substance abuse, anxiety, depression, emotional regulation/crisis management, and trauma.  I have an extensive background working in Adolescent Treatment Facilities, Mental Health and Substance Abuse Facilities. 

     Maybe you have already attempted to resolve things on your own and it has not worked. Perhaps you have noticed your emotions more intensely and therefore difficult to manage.  Do you spend way too much time in your head, allowing your thoughts to consume you? Are you feeling stuck and can't seem to move forward?  Whatever your personal reasons may be for reaching out, I strongly believe therapy is a realistic option and is a great place to start your journey.       

The world is what you make it

... and learning to navigate through life’s transitions can get pretty tricky.  I strive to offer you a safe, nonjudgemental, accepting environment; where you will have the opportunity to be open, honest, and authentic.  You may already be aware of who you want to be, but have you really discovered who you were meant to be?  I consider this an enormous privilege to be able to do this work, and  it would be an honor to be part of your journey to well-being.
