About Deborah Thomas

Deborah Thomas is a qualified therapeutic counsellor who welcomes people taking the often-difficult step of seeking support. She brings a calm, compassionate presence to her work and creates a non-judgmental space where clients can explore feelings, reflect on past experiences, and identify the changes they want to make.

Drawing on an integrative method that combines person-centered and psychodynamic ideas, she tailors sessions to each individual rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model. Deborah's NCPS credential is listed as a professional counselling qualification, and she pairs that training with practical experience from a previous career in corporate business, so she understands the pressures of balancing work, family and personal wellbeing.

She supports people with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, work-related stress, redundancy, relationship difficulties and grief. Deborah aims to help clients clarify goals, build insight and develop coping strategies in a warm, supportive environment that encourages honest reflection and gradual change.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Deborah works from an integrative foundation that prominently features person-centered and psychodynamic approaches. Person-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening and respect for the client's perspective - it helps people feel heard and supported while they explore current challenges such as anxiety, stress or relationship concerns. Psychodynamic work focuses on patterns that develop from past experiences and relationships, helping clients gain insight into recurring feelings or behaviours that may underlie issues like depression, grief or attachment difficulties.

She combines these approaches in a collaborative way, inviting clients to reflect on their goals and preferences so together they can identify which methods best suit the client's needs. Finding the right therapeutic fit is treated as a process the therapist and client shape jointly, with room to adapt as progress unfolds.

Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging offer flexible access to Deborah's practice. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily commitments, reduce travel time, and allow continuity of support across different situations while working with registered professionals and therapists.
