Debra Alper, LCSW

At Life Transitions Counseling, we recognize that navigating the complexities of relationships, divorce, and personal growth can be profoundly challenging. We believe that everyone deserves a safe and supportive space to explore their emotions, gain clarity, and build resilience. Life Transitions Counseling provides a compassionate and understanding environment where individuals and couples can work through their unique struggles and emerge stronger and more empowered.

Our Mission

Our mission is to empower individuals and couples to cultivate healthy and fulfilling relationships through evidence-based therapy and a genuine commitment to their well-being. We strive to create a therapeutic space that is non-judgmental, accepting, and conducive to introspection and transformative change.

Services We Offer

Our highly skilled and experienced therapists offer a range of counseling services tailored to meet the diverse needs of our clients:

• Individual Therapy: Individual therapy provides a platform for self-discovery, exploring personal challenges, developing coping mechanisms, and building a stronger sense of self-awareness and emotional regulation. Whether you're grappling with grief, anxiety, depression, trauma, or any other life hurdle, individual therapy can equip you with the tools to navigate these challenges and create a more meaningful and fulfilling life.

• Couples Therapy: Relationships require constant nurturing and attention, and navigating conflict, communication breakdowns, or emotional distance can be incredibly challenging. Couples therapy offers a structured and supportive environment for couples to work through their differences, improve communication, rebuild intimacy, and strengthen their connection. We guide couples in understanding their individual needs, developing healthier relationship patterns, and fostering a more fulfilling partnership.

• Divorce Process Therapy: Divorce is often a highly emotional and disruptive life transition. Divorce process therapy provides compassionate support and guidance as individuals navigate the legal, emotional, and logistical complexities of separation and divorce. We help clients process their grief, manage stress, develop healthy coping strategies, and build a sense of hope and resilience for the future.

• Emotionally Abusive Relationships: Recognizing and recovering from emotional abuse can be a significant challenge. Emotional abuse often involves manipulation, control, and belittling, leaving individuals feeling isolated, insecure, and deeply wounded. Our therapists are trained to help individuals identify the signs of emotional abuse, understand its impact on their well-being, and develop strategies to break free from harmful patterns.

• Emotional Abuse Recovery: Healing from emotional abuse is a journey that requires time, patience, and support. Emotional abuse recovery therapy focuses on empowering individuals to reclaim their sense of self-worth, rebuild healthy boundaries, and develop self-compassion.

Creating a Path Forward

Life Transitions Counseling is dedicated to providing a supportive and empowering environment where individuals and couples can explore their challenges, find healing, and create a brighter future.
