Practicing in Palm Beach Gardens, FL

Deborah Beriro graduated summa cum laude with her Master of Science degree in Applied Psychology and Mental Health Counseling from Lynn University in Boca Raton FL, and received her B.A. degree from American University in Washington, D.C.  (International Studies and Art History.) Deborah is a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) and is licensed in the state of Florida as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). Deborah uses an eclectic approach, as she has extensive trainings in multiple psychotherapeutic modalities. She believes every individual is different and she does not subscribe to "one size fits all” medical treatment approach. 

Deborah’s training as a counselor began as a primary therapist in acute settings, including inpatient drug and alcohol treatment centers, where over time she worked in the whole spectrum of Substance Use Disorder (SUDs) treatment from detox, to inpatient, outpatient, families therapy and case management.

After years of working in acute SUDs settings, Deborah realized that her skills were better served in private practice. Her practice evolved as she worked with clients to discover the causes and conditions of their disorders and attendant issues. As a result of her training, Deborah helps uncover and heal family of origin issues and attachment disorders, works with families and offers relationship counseling. Deborah is highly skilled in working with disorders, such as mood disorders, that often accompany, are exacerbated by or are masked by substance abuse issues. Deborah is a trauma informed therapist.

Deborah uses DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), CBT (Cognitive Behavior Therapy), Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Mindfulness approaches to help clients find relief from Depression, Anxiety, Mood disorders (e.g. Bipolar), Personality Disorders (e.g. Borderline PD) and attachment disorders, amongst others. Deborah helps families correct or avoid the co-dependent behaviors that accompany most related disorders of their loved ones. She enjoys helping clients, struggling from life transition, co-parenting/post divorce and spiritual issues, find relief and peace. 

Deborah looks at the big picture when addressing clinical issues and is able to help by often thinking out of the box with her treatment approach.

She is fluent in Spanish, French and English.
