Deborah Keklak, LPC

Deborah Keklak is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people handle stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, and changes that come with life. She aims to build a respectful, trusting relationship so people feel comfortable talking about what matters most. Her style is down-to-earth and practical, with an emphasis on small steps that add up to meaningful change.

Deborah has 22 years of experience working with issues like depression, panic, self-esteem struggles, abandonment, and family problems. She uses a mix of approaches and chooses what fits each person. Sessions often include skill practice and occasional homework to help new patterns stick in daily life.

In sessions she helps organize problems into manageable pieces. That can mean learning ways to respond to anger, improving communication, or building routines to cope with ADHD or bipolar symptoms. She also supports people facing intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, and career concerns.

She describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client stays in the driver’s seat. Deborah guides people toward tools and thoughts that help them reach their goals. Progress is paced to avoid overwhelm and to let clients practice skills between meetings.

How Deborah’s Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It’s often useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting and changing thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going and is commonly used for anxiety, panic, and mood concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens and follows the client’s lead to build insight and self-direction.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. Deborah tailors methods to each person and discusses options together. She checks in about what feels useful and adjusts tools based on the client’s goals, needs, and preferences, so therapy becomes a shared process rather than a fixed plan.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine, shorten commute time, and allow quicker follow-up between meetings. Online work can also let sessions focus on skill practice, in-the-moment coaching, or planning changes that clients then try out in daily life.
