About Debra

Debra Kemp is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Georgia who focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside a wide range of mental health issues. She helps with stress and anxiety, addictions, anger, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, trauma and grief, parenting, career questions, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, and coping with life changes.

She encourages people to notice their strengths and use them to face hard situations.

Background and approach

Her style is straightforward and supportive. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and works together with them to set practical goals. Sessions aim to build motivation, improve coping skills, and strengthen confidence one step at a time.

Debra draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide conversations and skills practice. Over a ten-year period she has worked with people managing addictions, anxiety, trauma, and relationship stress. That experience shapes how she structures sessions and selects helpful tools.

She offers several online session formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location and therapist availability. To begin, a person chooses the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules according to therapist availability.

Debra aims to make the first steps clear and manageable for someone seeking support.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Debra uses evidence-based techniques to guide practical change. One approach focuses on building coping skills and emotional regulation so people can manage anxiety, anger, and mood swings more effectively. Another approach emphasizes motivation and strength-building to address addictions, low confidence, and life transitions; it helps people set small, achievable goals and track progress.

Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. She listens to each person’s needs and preferences, then recommends a combination of approaches that fits their goals. The plan can be adjusted as work progresses so the client and therapist stay aligned on what’s helpful.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules, provide ongoing support between meetings, and allow people to engage in therapy from home. Licensed professionals can adapt tools and exercises to each format to keep work focused and practical.
