About Debra

Debra Kemp, LPC, helps people who are facing stress, anxiety, addiction struggles, anger, low self-esteem, depression, relationship strain, grief, and big life changes. She encourages people to notice their own strengths and to use those strengths to move forward. Debra speaks directly and kindly, and she recognizes that starting therapy takes courage.

Debra has about 10 years of professional experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia. She focuses on practical steps people can take to manage strong emotions and regain a sense of control. Sessions often center on building motivation, improving self-confidence, and developing better coping skills for everyday life.

In the room she works alongside clients rather than telling them what to do. She listens to each person’s story and helps them set realistic short-term goals. The work can include talking through patterns, practicing new ways to respond to stress, and trying small behavior changes between sessions.

People come to her for many concerns, including parenting stress, compassion fatigue, career pressures, intimacy-related issues, trauma and abuse, and ADHD-related challenges. She also supports those coping with bipolar disorder and grief, and she offers coaching-style guidance when helpful.

Debra asks clients to choose the Start Therapy button to begin. A short matching questionnaire helps pair someone to scheduling options. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How evidence-based techniques guide online work

Debra uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills people can apply right away. One common approach emphasizes practical coping skills for anxiety and stress, teaching breathing, grounding, and behavior changes to reduce overwhelm. Another approach centers on motivation and self-esteem, helping people identify small, achievable goals and build confidence through repeated, manageable steps.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist listens to the person’s goals and preferences, and then tries methods that match those needs. Together they review what works and adjust the plan as they go.

Many people find online therapy helpful because it can fit more easily into a busy life. It may make it simpler to schedule a session during a work break, avoid travel time, or have a shorter check-in when needed. Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available and can pick what fits your routine.
