About Debbie
Debbie Jepps-Finn is a counsellor who uses a warm, non-judgemental approach to help people through stressful periods. She holds NCPS and brings eight years of UK practice to her work. Debbie aims to make it easier to talk about difficult feelings and decisions in a straightforward way.
She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related issues. She also supports people with depression, addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties, and problems with self-esteem.
Background and approach
Debbie helps people who are navigating life changes, parenting pressures, grief, bipolar challenges and ADHD-related concerns. Debbie draws on client-centred work to prioritise the person in the room. Cognitive behavioural ideas are used to spot unhelpful thinking and try small changes.
She also uses mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas to understand patterns and build emotional awareness. Her background includes substantial charity work in the UK, which gave experience with a wide range of life circumstances. That time shaped her practical, empathetic way of working and her attention to each person’s unique story.
Sessions focus on what the individual wants to change and how to get there. Debbie aims to help people build confidence, manage symptoms, and find clearer ways of relating to others. She supports LGBT people as part of a broader practice and will work at the client’s pace.
To begin, she asks clients to set simple goals and then checks progress together. The emphasis is on practical tools and honest conversation to help people move towards a more balanced life.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s experience and aims to create an accepting space to talk things through. It helps people who need time and empathy to understand their feelings and decide what matters to them.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and uses practical exercises to test new ways of coping. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and repetitive worries because it gives clear steps to try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and together you will choose what to try first. That collaborative process can be adjusted as progress and priorities change.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life and remove travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed or let people choose audio rather than video if that is more comfortable. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available online options before booking to ensure they fit your routine and needs.
