I am a certified licensed therapist in two states with over thirty years of experience. I received my degree from Antioch University Seattle and have worked with adults in a variety of settings throughout my career. I, particularly, specialize in working with women. I employ a person-centered approach based on respect, knowledge, and empowerment.
Finding the right therapist is not easy. Often times a degree or years of experience can be irrelevant as it relates to a successful therapeutic connection. I believe in a counseling session an individual needs to feel comfortable, heard, and valued by a therapist. I can offer someone these integral pieces as a therapist, as well as, genuinely caring about the individual's experiences.
Feel free to contact me with any questions regarding how I work, availability, etc. I look forward to hearing from you and working with you.
Additional areas of focus: LGBT, Relationship issues, Intimacy-related issues, Sleeping disorders, Parenting issues, Self esteem, Coping with life changes, Hospice and End of Life Counseling
Clinical approaches: Client-Centered Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Deborah Wood. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Deb has been instrumental in my healing. She is very clear about her treatment plan and asks all the right questions to help me lead myself in the right direction. I feel grateful to have been matched with her. She's essentially the reason I stuck with therapy.

Deb is the Best, I am so greatful for the relationship we have cultivated. She has created a welcoming environment for me to trust not only myself but therapy. She genuinely cares about my growth and development through our sessions and is wonderful about asking questions and checking in on how I feel about where we are focusing.

Deborah is awesome. She can see what I need to do for myself even if I am too close to the problem.

Deborah is very kind and compassionate. I asked to really focus on my goals and steps to take towards them, she's really helped me stay motivated and moving forward. Also on days I need to slow down and talk things out she's really great at showing things down for me and giving me space and guidance to process.
