Our Mission

“Debbie is the reason my daughter and I go to the Center for Healing.  From our initial meeting to our most recent session, Debbie has always been not just a therapist but someone my daughter and I feel so comfortable around..  We have both met with other therapists in the past, but never stayed for more than just a few sessions.. Debbie always made us feel comfortable sharing our fears, anxiety triggers and she is also very relatable at the same time. It’s almost like having coffee with a friend sometimes.. She’s knowledgeable of what materials to recommend and has gifted us with the perfect books and calming jars that we use after our sessions when we are triggered and have anxiety attacks.. When I have emotional triggers outside of our typical weekly sessions, I would send her a message and Debbie will respond quickly and move things around in her schedule to see me and that means so much! I haven’t felt this mentally and emotionally healthy since my childhood. The only thing that has changed are my sessions with Debbie and the homework she assigned to me. My daughter is always looking forward to her weekly sessions with “Ms. Debbie”. That shows me as a parent that the sessions are working, she just turned 13, what teenager enjoys going to therapy?

The Center for Healing is such a calm environment.  My previous therapist’s office felt like a doctor’s office with harsh lighting and old ugly furniture.  Just being in the waiting room gave me stress and anxiety.  The first time I went to the Center for Healing, I felt like I stepped into a zen spa.  Everything was beautiful and minimalist.  It calmed my nerves just being in the office.  They have the most amazing playroom for my two-year-old.  Even though she doesn’t receive therapy, she looks forward to coming to my sessions just for the playroom.”  – ML
