About Debra
Debra Kabrin is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with three years of post-licensure experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family matters, depression, grief, and parenting challenges, among other issues. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.
Debra uses Attachment-Based, Client-Centered, and Solution-Focused approaches to help people notice and change patterns rooted in earlier family experiences. In conversation she helps clients identify repeating roles, expectations, and communication habits that come from their family of origin. She offers straightforward feedback and practical steps to try between sessions.
Her work includes support for people facing intimacy issues, commitment struggles, blended family dynamics, and caregiver stress. She also addresses midlife questions, career concerns, and multicultural issues. When family history shapes current choices, she helps clarify how those early relationships still influence reactions and decisions.
Debra pays attention to attachment issues and the ways they show up in adult relationships. Her client-centered stance means she listens for the client’s priorities and adapts the pace accordingly. Solution-focused techniques are used to set concrete short-term goals and track small changes.

How her approaches are used in online sessions
Debra uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships influence present-day reactions and connection patterns. This approach helps when recurring roles from family life affect adult relationships or parenting.Client-Centered Therapy is used to keep the work focused on what the person wants to address. It emphasizes listening and shaping sessions around the client’s priorities so goals reflect what matters to them.
Solution-Focused Therapy helps set clear, manageable steps and track small changes between meetings. It’s useful for people who want concrete progress on stress, communication, or day-to-day coping.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss client goals, preferences, and current concerns and then collaborate on which methods to emphasize. That plan can change as the client’s needs evolve.
