Deborah Malloy

My communication style

I am assertive and exhibit empathy, compassion, unconditional positive regard, and a non-judgmental stance. I respect your worldviews and diverse identities. I want to create an environment where you feel safe, comfortable, and can trust the experience of therapy with me.

My journey to mental healthcare

Both my parents and grandparents were in helping professions, and I admired the manner they cared for others. Witnessing individuals meet their goals and substantially improve their quality of life is incredibly rewarding. When I can be part of that journey with them, I feel very honored.

My goals for you

It is critical to understand the specific reasons the client is seeking therapy at this time. I have them take a look at what the main focus of therapy can be for them and discuss multiple options we can utilize together to help them achieve those goals.

Our first session

I gather information to inform treatment planning and goal setting while starting to develop our therapeutic alliance. I disclose some basic information about myself and work hard to hear and validate your experiences. I want to instill hope that together we can accomplish your goals.
