My Approach to Helping
Debra Dukes I am a Licensed Clinical Therapist and Special Education School Social Worker. I am highly motivated, persistent, and mature. I have worked with special education children and adolescent for over 23 years. I have helped them overcome developmental, personal and social problems.
I utilize the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach. Which will help clients identify certain thoughts and feelings about yourself or situations that can lead to distress. In the CBT sessions will work on identifying patterns and learning about how negative thoughts might negatively affect you. We will explore ways to replace negative thought pattern or behaviors with ones that are more helpful and accurate.
