About Deborah
Deborah Gullatt is a licensed professional counselor who helps people in Texas facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and parenting challenges. She speaks plainly and listens with respect and compassion. She aims to make the first steps feel manageable for worried parents and adults looking for change.
Deborah brings 30 years of experience as an LPC. She works with people on trauma and abuse, anger, addictions, and relationship concerns. She also addresses issues like ADHD, self-esteem, career questions, and coping when life shifts unexpectedly.
Background and approach
In sessions she begins by setting clear, achievable goals with each person. Then she matches tools and strategies to what that person needs. Conversations are practical and focused on habits, thoughts, and actions that can change daily life.
Her approach draws on client-centered listening and structured techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She uses mindfulness practices to help clients manage strong feelings and build steady routines. Deborah has worked across many settings and has deep experience supporting people through loss, blended family challenges, caregiver stress, and trauma recovery.
She is based in Texas and holds the LPC credential. Her practice offers a calm, steady presence for people ready to make thoughtful change.
Practical approaches and flexible online care
Deborah blends client-centered listening with structured methods to help people manage strong emotions and change daily habits. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on respectful listening, helping the person feel heard and understood while they set their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and panic symptoms.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Deborah collaborates with each person to decide what techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts plans as challenges change so therapy stays useful and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options let people fit therapy around parenting schedules, work, and other obligations. Remote sessions make it easier to keep appointments and use skills between meetings while still getting guidance from a licensed professional.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
