About Deborah
Deborah Gullatt is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 30 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, eating issues, parenting strain, low self-esteem, career challenges, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and other life changes.
She uses clear, practical methods in sessions. Deborah relies on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and habits. She also draws on client-centered work, dialectical behavior therapy skills, and mindfulness practices to support coping and emotional regulation.
In the first meetings she focuses on concrete goals. People review what feels most urgent and set small steps they can try between sessions. Sessions include noticing thought patterns, practicing alternative responses, and building specific coping skills for anxiety, anger, or mood swings.
Deborah has worked in Texas settings for decades and brings steady clinical experience to common life problems. She assists with issues related to attachment, blended family adjustments, caregiver stress, control struggles, and recovery from domestic violence or disaster-related stress.
Her approach emphasizes practical strategies over theory. People can expect structured conversations, in-session skill work, and short homework tasks to practice new ways of handling strong emotions and daily challenges. Her practice language is English and she does not take international clients.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Deborah commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that fuel anxiety, depression, and panic. CBT sessions tend to focus on practical tools, thought records, and step-by-step behavior experiments that can be practiced between meetings.She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT skills are useful when strong emotions or impulsive reactions make daily life harder.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Deborah will review goals, symptoms, and preferences with each person and suggest whether CBT, DBT skills, mindfulness practice, or a mix best fits their needs. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
