About Debbie
Debbie Jepps-Finn works from a client-centred stance that puts the person at the heart of therapy. She combines person-focused listening with practical tools to help people manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and trauma. Debbie holds NCPS and brings eight years of experience supporting people through tough life changes.
She aims to create a warm, open space where thoughts and feelings can be spoken about without judgement. Sessions focus on understanding what matters to the individual and building small, workable steps forward.
Background and approach
That might include using elements of cognitive behavioural techniques to change unhelpful thinking patterns, or mindfulness practices to ease overwhelming feelings. Debbie also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at past patterns that influence present behaviour. This can help when issues involve attachment, abandonment or ongoing family tensions.
She works with concerns such as grief, self-esteem, eating and sleeping problems, intimacy and sexual issues, and addictions. Her background includes significant work with a charity, which broadened her experience of varied life situations. This experience informs a flexible approach that adapts to each person’s needs and goals.
Debbie supports people dealing with fertility and fatherhood worries, blended family strains, and recovery after domestic violence or separation. Practical skills, empathy and steady support are central to her practice. She encourages clients to find their own solutions while offering guidance on coping strategies and relapse prevention.
The overall goal is greater confidence, clearer choices and better day-to-day coping.

How Debbie works online
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, sleeping problems and certain types of addictive behaviours.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they will try different techniques and decide what feels most useful for the individual.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the exact session formats available before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, cut travel time and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people use mindfulness exercises and thought-record tasks between sessions to build lasting skills.
