Deborah Adams (Perspectives Therapy Services)

Coming from a spirit of warmth and optimism, I wholeheartedly believe that change is not only possible, but likely. People are resilient, and through the healing (and a little bit of humor…) that happens in the clinical space, clients can experience the growth they’ve been hoping for. I aim to leave clients with a sense that they are in a partnership with someone who is committed to their wellbeing.

Throughout the years, my clients have often so generously shared with me reflections like, “You just get me” and “I feel safe”. They’ve given me the credit when, truly, the work is only possible because they invite me into knowing their wishes, strengths, and challenges. Together, we consider those echoes from the client’s past that sometimes spill into their lives today. Examining those circumstances that clients bravely come to therapy with can allow for deeper joy and peace in their lives. And when exploring those circumstances feels vulnerable, I remind clients, “No judgement here”.
