About Deborah
Deborah Gaudet is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) based in New Mexico with ten years of clinical experience. She brings a hopeful, practical stance to therapy and focuses on helping people untangle long-standing patterns and painful emotions. Deborah speaks English and works with a wide range of concerns such as anxiety, stress, trauma, grief, addictions, and identity-related challenges.
She uses a mix of approaches drawn from Emotionally-Focused Therapy, attachment-based ideas, client-centered practice, cognitive behavioral methods, and existential thought.
Background and approach
Sessions emphasize understanding feelings, identifying unhelpful patterns, and trying small, practical changes that can shift how life feels. Deborah aims to make therapy a collaborative process where the client's goals guide each step. Deborah holds a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from Colorado State University and has spent a decade working with people through loss, life transitions, and complex stressors.
She often weaves in concepts from Jungian and existential perspectives when those ideas fit a person's situation. Her work also considers social and systemic stressors like economic and identity-based inequality when relevant to a client's story. Her style is friendly, down-to-earth, and focused on usable strategies that fit everyday life.
She pays attention to emotions and relationships to help people move out of stuck cycles. Deborah supports clients who are navigating parenting and caregiving strain, body image and intimacy issues, and challenges tied to addiction and codependency. Sessions can include discussion, behavior-focused experiments, and attention to underlying attachment patterns.
Deborah emphasizes steady, realistic progress and helps clients build tools they can use after therapy ends.

Online support
How Deborah blends emotional work with online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and working with core emotions to change painful interaction patterns and relieve long-standing distress. It is often used when relationships, attachment wounds, or deep feelings are central to a person's struggles.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence present-day reactions and relationships. This approach helps people recognize attachment patterns and try different ways of connecting for improved emotional safety and closeness.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person's own experience and pace. The therapist follows the client's lead, listens closely, and helps people find their own answers through empathic, nonjudgmental support.
Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. Deborah collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She will check in often and adapt techniques if something is not helping or if priorities change.
Online sessions offer real flexibility. Video calls make it possible to have face-to-face conversations without travel. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for ongoing support, brief coaching, or when someone prefers written communication. These options help people fit therapy into work, family life, and different time zones while keeping the focus on emotional and practical change.
