Debbie Allen, A Safe Place To Share
Therapist, Betrayal Trauma Therapist & Coach, Sex & Porn Addiction Therapist & Coach. Visit my website 👇
Has betrayal shattered your sense of safety and trust? Are you struggling with sex or pornography addiction, compulsive sexual behaviours, or the devastating impact these experiences can have on your relationship? You don’t have to navigate this alone.
I’m a Sex Addiction Therapist & Coach and Partner Trauma Therapist & Coach, with advanced clinical training through the International Institute for Trauma and Addiction Professionals (IITAP). I specialize in betrayal trauma, infidelity, sex and pornography addiction, compulsive sexual behaviours, and relationship recovery.
My approach is client-centred, attachment-based, and grounded in compassion, authenticity, and a deep understanding of the emotional wounds that betrayal and addiction can create. I provide a safe, confidential, and judgment-free environment where you can speak openly, feel understood, and begin making sense of what you’ve experienced.
Whether you’re struggling to regain your footing after betrayal, seeking recovery from compulsive sexual behaviours, or trying to rebuild trust and connection, I will meet you where you are. Together, we will work toward emotional safety, healthier boundaries, greater self-awareness, and meaningful, lasting change.
For those navigating the immediate aftermath of discovering betrayal, I also offer Post-Discovery Rapid Response, a specialized 90-minute coaching session designed to provide support, stabilization, and direction during those first overwhelming hours and days.
A Safe Place To Share is more than a name. It’s a place to be heard, a place to heal, and a place to rediscover hope.

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I have been a therapist for over 10 years and running my own company for the last 2. I use a combination of Biblical therapy as well as CBT. I truly care for my clients and desire them to have a more joyful life free of anxiety and depression. I have worked with many individuals, families, and marriages and have seen growth and freedom from stress achieved. I have seen marriages put back together and families and individuals before stronger. I also host a podcast with my wife and we cover topics such as marriage, narcissism, relationships, etc.

Tracey Knows
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Hey, thanks for taking a look at my profile! My name is Tracey, and I provide a warm, down-to-earth, and deeply supportive space for healing and growth. My approach blends mindfulness, holistic techniques, and evidence-based therapy to help clients break free from anxiety, OCD, people-pleasing, and self-doubt. Rather than offering quick fixes, I focus on lasting transformation—helping you reconnect with your inner strength, set healthy boundaries, and navigate life’s transitions with confidence. Clients often describe my style as authentic, perceptive, and deeply compassionate, creating a space where they feel truly seen and supported.
What sets Talk with Tracey apart is my ability to blend practical tools with deeper emotional work, ensuring that you not only gain coping skills but also heal at the root level. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just ready for change, I meet you where you are and guide you toward the life you truly want. Therapy with me isn’t just about reducing distress—it’s about helping you step into your full potential with clarity, resilience, and self-trust. If you’re ready to take that step, I’d love to support you on your journey.

A Little Healing LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I work with women who are used to being the person everyone else can count on but often struggle to give themselves that same care. You may find yourself saying yes when you really want to say no, feeling guilty when you set a boundary, overthinking whether someone is upset with you, or constantly putting other people's feelings and needs ahead of your own. Maybe you look like you have it all together on the outside, but inside you're exhausted, anxious, questioning yourself, or wondering when you lost touch with who you are and what you need. I help women struggling with people-pleasing, low self-esteem, boundaries, anxiety, depression, and trauma understand and heal the deeper wounds and patterns that keep them stuck. My goal isn't to teach you to stop caring about other people or become someone you're not. I want to help you learn how to care about others without continually abandoning yourself in the process. Together, we'll work toward helping you trust yourself, strengthen your voice, set healthier boundaries without being consumed by guilt, develop greater self-compassion, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that may have gotten lost while you were busy being who everyone else needed you to be.
