About Debra

Debra Kemp is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and ADHD. She addresses addictions, anger, low self-esteem, and motivation challenges with a practical, down-to-earth style. Debra encourages clients to use their own strengths as the foundation for change.

She frames therapy as a collaborative process. She listens to each person's story and helps break problems into manageable steps. Sessions focus on concrete skills, coping strategies, and real-world goals rather than long explanations.

Background and approach

Debra draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person. She commonly works with people dealing with grief, trauma, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, and career transitions. Her approach is adaptable to mood conditions such as bipolar disorder and to people experiencing compassion fatigue.

Clients can expect straightforward talk and actionable plans. Debra prioritizes building motivation, improving day-to-day functioning, and restoring confidence. She also supports those navigating life changes and offers elements of coaching to set and track goals.

With ten years of professional experience, Debra blends clinical skills with practical problem-solving. She aims to make the first sessions feel manageable and useful. The focus is on small wins that add up to lasting change.

Evidence-based methods and online sessions that fit your life

Debra uses straightforward, evidence-based techniques that focus on skills and behavior. One common approach teaches practical coping skills and structure to manage attention, impulsivity, and day-to-day routines that often accompany ADHD and anxiety. Another approach emphasizes mood regulation and problem solving to reduce intense emotions and improve decision-making for people dealing with depression, bipolar symptoms, or anger. Finding the right approach is a team effort. Debra will work with each person to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps most. The process is collaborative and paced to match needs and preferences rather than one-size-fits-all. Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation for in-depth work, phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth or camera use is limited, live chat suits brief check-ins or when typing feels easier, and messaging supports ongoing coaching and quick updates between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep progress going even when life is hectic.
