Deborah Gaudet , LPCC

Deborah Gaudet combines a hopeful and realistic outlook with a client-focused, directed approach to counseling. She draws on Jungian perspectives and cognitive behavioral methods to shape practical interventions that honor each person's experience and capacity for growth. Deborah holds a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from Colorado State University and carries the LPCC credential - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - which reflects advanced training in clinical practice.

Based in the mountains of Northern New Mexico, she brings a passion for the therapeutic encounter and the possibility of healing and transformation. Theorists and clinicians who inform her work include Carl Rodgers, Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Jacques Lacan, and Bracha Ettinger, and their ideas blend with more contemporary techniques to address both deep emotional material and everyday coping challenges.

Her clinical focus spans trauma recovery, addiction recovery, grief and loss work, depression, anxiety, PTSD, loneliness, and life stage transitions such as overwhelming parenting or caregiving stresses. Deborah emphasizes attending to emotion and psychological experience as a route to shifting patterns that may have felt stuck for years or decades. Her manner is friendly, positive, thorough, and practical, prioritizing approaches that can produce meaningful change while respecting each person’s pace and values.

While valuing the individual therapeutic relationship, she also considers systemic influences on well-being. Income inequality and forms of inequality based on sex and racialization are acknowledged as factors that shape life choices and mental health, and these realities are taken into account when planning paths toward healing and wellness.

Can Remote Sessions Meet Your Therapy Needs?

Many people wonder whether remote therapy can truly help. For many common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes - online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person sessions.

One of the clearest benefits is flexibility. Individuals can connect with therapists in the format that fits their life best - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - making it easier to maintain consistency and integrate therapy into a busy schedule.

Therapists offering remote services are licensed professionals, and switching to a different therapist is an option if someone wants a different fit. For those weighing whether online therapy is right for them, the combination of proven effectiveness for common issues and adaptable session formats makes remote work a practical choice for many people.
