About Debbie
Debbie Silva is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with six years of clinical experience. She has worked in individual and group settings, including telehealth. Debbie lists anger among the concerns she addresses along with stress, anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues.
She keeps sessions practical and straightforward. Debbie listens to each person's story and helps them describe what is happening now. Conversations focus on concrete patterns - what triggers strong reactions, what maintains them, and what small changes might shift daily life.
Her style draws on client-centered work that prioritizes the person's perspective. Mindfulness techniques are used to notice bodily and emotional cues without judgment. Narrative work helps people reframe painful or repeating stories about themselves and their relationships.
Debbie has experience with a wide range of issues, including grief, parenting strain, intimacy-related concerns, and addiction. She also notes focus areas such as attachment and abandonment themes, blended family challenges, chronic illness, codependency, and control issues. Sessions aim to address the immediate problem and the patterns around it.
Practical tools are paired with steady listening. Clients can expect clear check-ins, skill practice, and space to review progress. Because she has worked in both in-person and telehealth settings, Debbie is familiar with adjusting methods to fit how someone prefers to meet.

How her approaches translate to online work
Debbie uses client-centered methods that prioritize the person's perspective. That means sessions start with listening to the person's story and concerns, then shaping goals around what matters most. This approach is useful when someone wants direct, practical attention to how anger shows up day to day.She also draws on mindfulness therapy to help people notice bodily sensations and moment-to-moment emotional changes. Practicing simple grounding and awareness exercises can reduce reactivity and make it easier to choose different responses. Narrative therapy is used to examine the stories a person tells about themselves and their relationships, which can shift long-running patterns tied to anger or shame.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adjust those methods over time based on what helps most.
The original biography mentions experience with telehealth as well as in-person work, but does not list specific online formats here. Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are held. One practical benefit of working remotely is easier scheduling around work or family demands. Another is the option to use shorter check-ins when time is limited. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises for a video or phone setting so therapeutic work fits everyday life.
