About
As a Christian with a multicultural background who transitioned from engineering to counseling, I bring compassion, cultural understanding, practical insight, and a faith-informed perspective to helping clients navigate life’s challenges and move toward meaningful growth.
I’m Deborah Auguste, LPC, a licensed professional counselor with a multicultural background and a unique career journey from engineering to counseling. I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, stress, grief, and life transitions. My approach is warm, collaborative, culturally sensitive, and practical. I help clients better understand themselves, develop effective coping skills, strengthen relationships, and move toward greater emotional well-being. For clients who desire it, I also integrate Christian faith into the counseling process.
My approach is collaborative and practical, using CBT and other evidence-based strategies to help clients understand patterns, manage emotions, build healthier coping skills, and strengthen relationships. I provide a culturally sensitive, nonjudgmental space and, when desired, integrate Christian faith and biblical principles into the healing process.
You don’t have to have everything figured out before reaching out. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, navigating change, or simply longing for greater peace and clarity, I would be honored to walk alongside you. When you’re ready, I invite you to schedule an appointment and take the next step toward healing and meaningful change.

As a black woman who's been married for 10 years and lives a very busy life, I understand the challenges that comes with marriage and society. As someone who has personally experienced depression and anxiety along with challenges in self-esteem, I understand how that can get in the way of the relationship with yourself, significant other, and family.
I have been practicing therapy since 2019 and hold an LPC. I typically work with couples who are facing communication challenges and broken trust along with helping them reconnect. I work with individuals and help them to gain healthy coping skills to deal with anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem.
I love to be collaborative with clients and be intuitive to specific needs they may have in the moment. That helps clients to feel seen and understood during their healing journey.
Healing is something we all must experience but being able to trust someone you can be vulnerable with makes it so much easier.
I believe therapy should be client-driven and I look forward to helping others heal at their own pace....
