About DeBrica
DeBrica Butler is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and related concerns. She also supports those facing parenting challenges, intimacy issues, addictions, and identity questions related to LGBT matters.
Background and approach
She approaches work with warmth and respect and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. DeBrica centers sessions on the client’s own story and strengths.
She views people as the experts on their lives and aims to help them make choices that fit their values. Sessions are straightforward and focused on what the client wants to change, day by day.
Her approach draws on several established methods, including Gottman Method work for relationship patterns, cognitive behavioral tools to change unhelpful thoughts, and client-centered listening that prioritizes the person in front of her. She also uses skills from dialectical behavior therapy when emotion regulation or distress tolerance are needed.
Over 13 years of practice, DeBrica has worked with people facing trauma, grief, anger, ADHD-related challenges, and major life transitions. She pays attention to multicultural concerns and the ways attachment and abandonment issues show up in relationships.
The goal is to build practical coping skills and clearer communication. People who choose DeBrica can expect a collaborative pace.
She helps set realistic goals, checks progress, and adjusts strategies as needed. Her style is direct but compassionate, aimed at helping people feel more capable and more connected to their lives.
How therapy approaches work online
Gottman Method work focuses on patterns between partners and on building better communication and conflict habits; online sessions can be used to practice specific conversations and learn new interaction skills. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and following the client's pace, helping people feel heard and supported while they clarify goals and decisions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete exercises to reduce anxiety or depression symptoms and to change unhelpful thinking patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust based on what helps most. This collaborative process means the plan can shift as needs and preferences become clearer.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for in-the-moment skill practice. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging can support quick reflections, coaching-style guidance, or ongoing check-ins between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and daily life while using methods that match individual needs and goals.
