Deborah Osaki

My communication style

I encourage open and respectful communication. Feeling emotionally safe is the top priority. I practice active listening and am an empathic therapist.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to this field because I wanted to empower others with ways to cope with life's ups and downs. I have been through my own struggles and understand how valuable it is to receive unconditional regard and support.

My goals for you

We work together to identify your therapy goals and develop a plan to meet them. Therapy is your process to develop insight and awareness with space to change and grow. The hope is that you develop the skills you need in order to graduate from therapy.

Our first session

Initially, we take time to get to know each other. We discuss the therapy process, structure, your goals, and the plan to achieve them. It is common to feel nervous or anxious during the first few sessions.

I identify as...
