About Debbie
Debbie Jepps-Finn is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has eight years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and issues around self-esteem and motivation. Her background includes substantial work with a charity, which influenced how she responds to varied life challenges.
In sessions she follows client-centred principles, which mean listening and responding to what each person brings. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to look at thinking patterns and practical ways to change unhelpful habits. Mindfulness practices are offered to help with grounding, and psychodynamic ideas are used when exploring how past experiences shape current feelings.
People contact her about grief, parenting strain, intimacy-related concerns, addictions, eating and sleeping problems, bipolar and ADHD matters. Additional focuses listed include abandonment, attachment difficulties, blended family issues, body image, and separation. She also notes work with fertility and fatherhood issues and people within LGBT communities.
Her charity work is highlighted as a formative part of her experience, giving exposure to a wide range of life circumstances. That background informs how she hears the effects of trauma, family patterns and the knock-on impacts on mood and relationships.
Practical details about sessions, including formats and fees, are handled during the initial matching and scheduling step. To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and then book their first session through the service's online process.
How her approaches can work online
Debbie uses client-centred work to prioritise what each person brings to session. That approach means the therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps the client shape session direction. It is useful for people who need to talk through feelings and be heard.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical steps to change patterns. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, low mood and for managing unhelpful thinking that fuels guilt or shame.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and decide collaboratively how to apply client-centred or CBT methods in sessions.
