ABOUT ME

DEBORAH BARTON - PROFESSIONAL COUNSELLING SERVICES

Counselling / Therapy Approach

Person-centered Therapy, Mind Body Holism, Internal Family Systems Therapy, Narrative Therapy and Structural Family Therapy are all modalities that influence my work with clients.

Building a trusting collaborative relationship with clients is at the core of my practice – I hold acceptance and non-judgemental regard of each individual client, and a belief in their capacity for growth and healing. I am open to working with individuals on any issue they bring - together we become curious about whatever arises in your session and your healing journey.

MY EXPERIENCE

Hello, my name is Deborah Barton and I am a Professional Counsellor. I have been working in private practice for four years. I have also been a student and teacher of practical mindfulness and meditation for over twenty years.

My approach is simple: I offer a holistic and pragmatic therapeutic modality that focuses on both the body, mind and the emotions. My approach combines mindfulness, grounding techniques, and traditional talk therapy to help you better understand yourself and your experience.
