    About DeBrica

    DeBrica Butler is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Georgia who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family challenges, addictions, trauma, and identity-related concerns. She helps with parenting strain, intimacy and self-esteem issues, anger, ADHD, and life transitions. DeBrica aims to make taking the first step feel manageable and supportive.

    She centers sessions on the person in front of her, treating clients as the experts on their own story. Conversations focus on practical choices, noticing strengths, and setting small, achievable goals. Motivational Interviewing is part of her approach for helping people find their own reasons to change.

    DeBrica also draws on client-centered therapy to build a respectful, listening-based space. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) inform concrete skills for managing emotions and behavior. Existential ideas are used when people want to explore meaning, values, and bigger life questions.

    With 13 years of experience, she brings steady support for people navigating grief, abandonment wounds, communication problems, divorce and infidelity, and multicultural concerns. She works with individuals who identify as LGBT and with those exploring non-monogamous relationships.

    Her style is direct but warm. Sessions aim to be clear, focused, and practical so people can try new ways of handling daily stress. She encourages self-compassion and realistic steps toward change.

  1. How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

    Motivational Interviewing is a conversational approach that helps people explore their own motivations and decide on steps that feel right to them. It works well for goals like change around substance use, habits, or moving through ambivalence about big decisions.

    Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, respect, and collaboration. It creates space to be heard and to notice strengths, which can be especially helpful when someone is dealing with relationship or identity concerns.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will work together with clients to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That planning can change over time as goals evolve.

    Confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed. It can also make it simpler to continue work across life changes and to practice skills in real-world settings.
