Deborah Brehm is a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 21 years in mental health work. She practices in Georgia and draws on long experience helping people who face anxiety, depression, and major life changes. Deborah keeps the conversation direct and focused on the person's needs.

Background and approach
Deborah uses gentle but straightforward questioning to help people notice how relationships and past events affect daily life. Her approach blends ways of understanding attachment, emotions, and relationship dynamics. That might mean exploring emotional responses, mapping patterns in close relationships, or centering an individual's point of view during sessions.
Practical skills are paired with time to process difficult feelings. Deborah has particular experience with trauma, family conflicts, parenting stress, caregiver strain, and the emotional impacts of adoption and foster care. She also works with people dealing with anger, intimacy concerns, career stress, and mood disorders such as bipolar and depression.
Sessions may include focused conversation about past events, present relationships, or daily habits that cause pain. The aim is to support clearer decisions, calmer reactions, and better communication with others. Deborah supports people who want a blend of emotional depth and practical tools.
She offers services in English and is available to international clients. Therapy is provided through video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging to match different schedules and needs.

04Online support
How Deborah's Approaches Translate to Online Therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current close relationships shape feelings and behaviors. Online sessions using this lens look at patterns in relationships and help people try new ways of connecting and responding.Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on identifying and shifting strong emotional responses in relationships. In online meetings clients name difficult feelings, practice new interactions, and work toward greater connection or clearer boundaries.
Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and goals. The therapist listens, reflects, and follows the client's pace so each session addresses what matters most right now.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Deborah will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers real practical benefits. Video calls let the work feel close to an in-person session, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and text messaging provide short check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep a steady routine and get help from different locations.
