About Deborah
Deborah Abram is a licensed mental health counselor with more than 22 years of experience. She works with people dealing with anxiety, stress, grief, depression, and self-esteem struggles. Deborah uses an open, warm style to help clients make practical changes in their lives.
She meets people where they are and draws from a variety of approaches to suit each person. Sessions focus on clear goals and small steps that feel doable.
Background and approach
Deborah describes herself as nonjudgmental and aims to put people at ease so they can talk honestly about what matters to them. Her work often addresses life transitions, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and mood-related issues including bipolar disorder and panic. She also supports those coping with caregiver strain, aging and geriatric concerns, isolation, and end-of-life challenges.
Deborah offers coaching-style conversations when people want skills and direction alongside counseling. Deborah holds LCMHC and LMHC credentials, with licensure in Florida and New Hampshire. Her approach includes client-centered techniques, cognitive behavioral methods, dialectical behavior strategies, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing.
Those methods are blended to match a person's needs and goals. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and messaging between sessions, with the expectation that live sessions are part of the work. Scheduling follows a short matching process and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to you. The therapist acts as a supportive guide, helping you name goals and find your own solutions; this approach is useful for anxiety, low mood, and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is goal-oriented and often helps with panic, anxiety, and depression by breaking problems into manageable steps.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal skills. It can be helpful for intense emotions, anger, and mood instability by offering concrete skills to practice.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose or blend methods that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. That conversation can begin in an initial session and shift as needs change.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when depth and visual cues matter. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging make it simpler to check in between sessions or to get notes and reminders for skills practice. These options help people maintain consistency and fit therapy into a real-life routine.
