Debbie Locketz
Clinical Social Worker/Therapist - LICSW
I have provided over 15 years of social, emotional, and mental health services to teens, emerging adults, and adults who are struggling with life transitions, managing relationships, school concerns, life balance, anxiety and depression, and feeling overwhelmed. I believe this is part of life and it is okay to ask for support. Together we will build on your strengths and natural capacity for growth.
Clients describe me as a therapist who listens, genuinely cares, and validates their experiences while helping them move past the thoughts, behaviors, and feelings that are negatively impacting their lives.
I specialize in treatment for anxiety, depression, stress management, times of transition, relationships, and low self-esteem. Together, we will develop your toolbox of skills. To succeed in therapy you must have a positive connection with your therapist. To ensure we are a good fit, I offer a free 15-minute consultation.
My approach is straightforward and direct. I want to help you achieve your goals. I work well with clients who are ready to learn practical skills, work on hard emotions and tackle obstacles. I will use my skills and training to help you move closer to where you want to be. You deserve a safe environment for discussion and to feel seen and heard.
