About Deborah

Deborah Gornall is a warm and approachable therapist who brings six years of experience to her practice. She is fully qualified and trained in Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), combining these practical approaches to support people facing a wide range of challenges, including grief, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship difficulties and obsessive-compulsive concerns.

Deborah offers tailored techniques that align with each client’s goals and needs, and she works collaboratively to find the most helpful path forward. Her style is marked by empathy, a non-judgemental attitude and genuine care, and she emphasizes the unique strengths each person brings to the therapeutic process. Deborah also states that she works ethically and follows the codes set out by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), the professional body for counselling in the United Kingdom.

She values the courage it takes to seek support and aims to make those first steps easier by providing steady, practical guidance and compassionate listening. Deborah’s approach focuses on understanding each person’s situation and supporting them as they explore change and build coping strategies.

Client-Centered and CBT Approaches in Online Therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, empathic environment where clients are listened to and respected. This approach helps people explore their feelings, build self-awareness and find their own solutions to issues like relationship strain, low self esteem and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is more structured and works by identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical strategies to change them. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress and compulsive patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Deborah will work collaboratively with each person to assess needs, goals and preferences, and she will suggest techniques from Client-Centered work and CBT that best fit the situation. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions so they are relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect - video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging - so people can choose what feels most comfortable and practical. These options make it easier to schedule appointments around work, family and other commitments and provide ongoing access to a licensed professional and therapist support from different locations.
