Patricia DeBor, LPC

Patricia DeBor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 years of experience. She brings a warm, genuine manner and a practical focus to sessions. Patricia helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, career decisions, and major life changes.

She draws on approaches such as attachment-based work, client-centered care, cognitive behavioral techniques, existential thinking, and mindfulness. In sessions she listens closely, helps name what feels stuck, and collaborates on realistic steps to move forward. Her style aims to be straightforward and compassionate rather than overly clinical.

Patricia's background includes independent practice, work with the military, and roles in higher education. That variety informs how she supports people facing first responder concerns, veteran and armed forces issues, hospice and end-of-life matters, and sexual assault or abuse recovery. She also addresses process addictions like pornography, exercise, and gambling, plus seasonal affective disorder and jealousy.

Sessions focus on practical skills and the client's individual goals. Patricia will work with each person to build tools for coping, managing anxiety, and navigating transitions. The goal is to help people feel less stuck and better able to pursue what matters to them.

She practices in Idaho and works in English. To begin, clients are asked to use the site's continue button on this profile, complete a brief matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How these approaches guide online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and how early bonds shape reactions today; it helps when trust, closeness, or jealousy feel overwhelming. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person in the room, using empathetic listening and collaboration to help people clarify values and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors together and offers concrete skills to reduce anxiety and manage mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patricia will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they’ll try approaches and adjust plans so therapy fits the client’s needs and pace.

Confirm session formats before booking to know what is available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, allow a quicker check-in during a workday, or remove the need to be on camera for every meeting. These practical benefits can help people maintain consistency while they work on stress, grief, trauma-related concerns, or relationship issues like jealousy.
