Debra Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
For some people, the idea of therapy isn't a pleasant one. You can think of Life Coaching as "therapy light." A safe space to explore what's been getting in your way and preventing you from being as fulfilled as you could be. We can explore whatever area is impacting you, such as parenting, relationships, work stress, health issues, worries, etc. Along the way we can set some goals, and learn some new skills to use in your life.

Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you feel stuck, unfulfilled, or not performing at the level you know you’re capable of, coaching can help you move forward. You may be successful on the outside, yet frustrated with patterns like overthinking, self-doubt, procrastination, or difficulty following through. You don’t necessarily need therapy—you need clarity, direction, and a more effective way to execute.
In my coaching work, I focus on helping you identify what’s getting in your way and develop a clear, actionable path forward. Using principles from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), along with tools from NLP, clinical hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we target both mindset and behavior. This allows you to not only set meaningful goals, but also follow through consistently by addressing the internal patterns that typically interfere with progress.
What’s often missing isn’t intelligence or motivation—you likely already know what you should be doing. What’s missing is a structured approach to overcome the internal resistance, distractions, or habits that keep you from executing at a higher level. Without that, even the best intentions tend to stall.
The fact that you’re here suggests you’re ready to take action. If you’re willing to approach this in a focused, results-oriented way, I can help you gain clarity, build momentum, and create measurable progress toward the goals that matter most to you.
