About Debbie
Debbie Jepps-Finn uses a client-centred approach to build a respectful, accepting space for people to talk through hard things. She writes in plain terms and listens without judgement, helping people feel heard and recognised from the first session.
She has eight years' experience working in the United Kingdom. Much of her past work was in the charity sector, where she met people facing a wide range of difficulties. That background shaped her practical, down-to-earth style and her ability to respond to many different life situations.
Debbie helps with common concerns such as stress, anxiety and low mood. She also works with relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, and problems with eating and sleep. People bring issues like parenting strain, self-esteem, bipolar challenges, ADHD and coping with big life changes.
Her practice draws on Client-Centred Therapy alongside tools from cognitive behavioural approaches and mindfulness. She also uses psychodynamic ideas when they suit someone’s story. Sessions focus on what matters to the individual and on simple steps that can make everyday life easier.
Debbie aims to help people build confidence and practical coping skills. She works collaboratively to set goals and reviews progress as therapy continues. The emphasis is on understanding each person’s situation and finding ways to move forward that feel manageable.
How Debbie's approaches translate to online work
Debbie combines a client-centred stance with cognitive behavioural and mindfulness techniques to shape online sessions. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, understanding and reflecting the person's experience rather than directing it, which helps people feel accepted and able to open up. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together and offers practical steps to change patterns that cause distress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve day-to-day coping.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Debbie collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She checks in about what feels helpful and adapts the mix of listening, practical exercises and reflective conversation as therapy progresses.
The practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions into a busy day, saving travel time and making it easier to keep regular appointments.

The aim is to make therapy manageable alongside school, work and family commitments while keeping the focus on clear, useful steps that support lasting change.
