About Deborah

Deborah Gromack is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 27 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping adults who face stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and ADHD. Deborah uses a person-centered style and brings a calm, steady presence to each session.

She draws on client-centered principles to follow each person's lead and build trust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps her guide practical skill-building for mood, sleep, and anxiety.

Background and approach

Solution-focused work is used to set small, achievable goals and notice progress between sessions. Deborah's background includes long-term work with older adults and people living with chronic health issues and dementia, and experience alongside people on the autism spectrum. That history informs a flexible approach to pacing, routine, and sensory needs.

She also has experience supporting caregiving stress and first responder issues. In sessions she often combines talk with creative expression where it feels helpful. Her training in expressive therapies means she may suggest music, writing, or other arts-based exercises to name and move difficult feelings.

Clients choose whether to use these methods. Deborah practices in Massachusetts and offers online options that let people connect by video, phone, chat, or text. She speaks English and works with international clients using the stated session formats.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

How Deborah’s Approaches Work Online

Deborah blends client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and solution-focused tools to help people make practical changes. Client-centered Therapy means she follows the client's lead, listens closely, and shapes sessions around what matters most to the person. This helps when someone needs a supportive space to be heard and to sort out priorities.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) adds concrete steps to manage moods, anxiety, sleep, and day-to-day routines. CBT focuses on noticing thought and behavior patterns and trying small experiments to see what helps. Solution-Focused Therapy keeps attention on achievable goals and short-term progress, which can be useful when someone wants clear next steps and quicker relief.

Finding the right mix is collaborative. Deborah will talk with the client about goals, try different techniques, and adjust based on what works. Clients decide whether to include creative or expressive options as part of their plan.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls can fit into a short break or require less bandwidth, live chat works for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and maintain continuity of care.
