Debby Diamond, MSW, LCSW, CSW-G

My communication style

My style is personable and adaptable. I want you to feel at ease and emotionally comfortable during sessions. I prioritize complementing your communication style to create the most supportive therapeutic environment possible.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've always been drawn to helping professions. My first experience with older adults was as a nurse assistant in a convalescent hospital, which opened my eyes to the unique challenges patients and families face. That experience shaped my path into social work and my continued dedication to serving seniors.

My goals for you

Goal setting is a joint effort. I'll ask you to visualize what successful treatment looks like and what you'd like changed. We'll draw from your strengths, beliefs, and coping skills as we design your treatment plan together. I let trust-building unfold organically, without rushing, and we'll update the plan as our partnership develops.

Our first session

I'll learn about what you've been feeling and experiencing that led you to seek therapy. If this is your first time, we'll address any questions or concerns. If you've been in therapy before, we'll discuss what worked and what you'd like done differently. We'll also review your mental health history and how symptoms have affected your life.
