About Deborah
Deborah Burden is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with nine years of professional experience. She aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity and compassion. Deborah personalises conversations and plans to fit each person's needs.
She presents a calm, encouraging presence for anyone taking the first step towards change. Her work focuses on relationship problems, stress, anxiety and grief, and she also supports people dealing with low self-esteem and life transitions.
Background and approach
Depression and coping with life changes are part of the concerns she helps people talk through. She also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties and codependency. Deborah has experience with a range of family-related struggles, including family of origin issues, divorce and separation, and forgiveness work after infidelity or betrayals.
She brings nine years of practice to these conversations and adapts her approach to each situation. Her background includes registration with BACP and NCPS, which are listed credentials. In sessions she focuses on understanding what matters to the individual.
Conversations are guided by the client's goals and paced to suit them. Deborah aims to help people find clearer thinking, better coping strategies and a steadier sense of self. People who prefer practical, conversational support tend to feel comfortable with her style.
She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs and schedules.

Online support
She also draws on attachment-focused ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. That helps when people struggle with abandonment, trust or repeated relationship difficulties. Sessions can include looking at past patterns and practising different responses in everyday situations.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Deborah will work with each person to try methods that match their goals, needs and preferences and adjust the plan over time. She encourages open feedback so the work stays relevant and practical.
Online formats allow flexible ways to keep therapy consistent. Video calls work well for in-depth conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions suit shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging support ongoing check-ins and quick reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
