About Deborah
Deborah Glenna is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Georgia with 15 years of clinical experience working with stress, anxiety, addiction, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and major life changes. She focuses on helping people carry the practical work of recovery, manage caregiving strain, and address feelings of guilt and shame.
Deborah centers cultural humility and affirming care in her work. She meets people from varied backgrounds and listens for how identity, faith, and values shape what matters most. Conversations often include questions about purpose, relationships, and sexuality when those topics are relevant to a person’s healing.
She commonly helps people untangle codependency and communication problems. She offers straightforward strategies for coping with divorce, midlife transitions, and workplace stress. For addiction concerns, she addresses both substance use and process addictions with practical tools and ongoing planning.
Deborah pays attention to how past trauma and abuse affect daily life now. She supports people carrying abandonment wounds, post-traumatic stress, and the complicated feelings that follow domestic violence. Sessions aim to clarify patterns and develop manageable steps forward.
When guilt or shame is the central issue she talks about the specific beliefs and situations that keep those feelings active. The work combines identifying unhelpful patterns with building more self-directed habits and clearer boundaries.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Deborah practices in Georgia and conducts sessions in English.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions can work
Deborah uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change. One common approach she uses helps people identify unhelpful patterns in relationships and behavior, then replace them with clearer boundaries and actions. This approach is useful for codependency, communication problems, and caregiving stress.She also works with methods that address trauma’s lasting effects by helping people notice how past events show up in daily life. That approach includes building coping strategies for post-traumatic stress and processing feelings tied to abuse or abandonment.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Deborah will discuss goals, preferences, and how symptoms show up to figure out which methods fit best. That decision is made collaboratively and can shift as needs change.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current options before booking. Many people appreciate the way remote sessions make it easier to check in during a lunch break, choose shorter or longer meetings when needed, and maintain continuity of care across life changes.
