We understand how important it is to have the right fit between you and your therapist. We want you to feel that your time with either of us has been worthwhile and helpful.

In order to contribute to your progress, we have a counseling style that is both active and engaging with our clients. We understand that therapy can be a little intimidating and we try to make our sessions with our clients feel safe and energizing. We find that we are most helpful to our clients when we make observations, offer perspectives, and uncover options. We respect your journey in life and honor your uniqueness.

Though Debbie or Sue will be your primary therapist, we work as a collaborative team of therapists at Positive Steps. We protect your confidentiality while giving you the benefit of both our training and skills at weekly client review meetings.
