Meet Your Licensed Clinical Psychologist
About Dr. Deborah Story, PsyD
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with 30 years of experience helping adults navigate mood swings, trauma, chronic stress, and complex emotional patterns. I bring warmth, humor, and a collaborative style to therapy. My approach is never one-size-fits-all. Together, we look beneath the surface, identify what isn’t working, and build practical tools that truly fit your life. I am licensed in Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, and West Virginia, and I am authorized to provide telehealth services in PSYPACT states.
Who I Help
I work with adults 18 and older who are navigating emotional, relational, and psychological challenges. I support individuals who may appear high-functioning on the outside yet feel overwhelmed, anxious, burned out, or stuck in recurring patterns. Whether you are working through trauma, depression, anxiety, personality dynamics, or life transitions, I provide a thoughtful, structured therapeutic space to deepen insight, strengthen coping skills, and foster lasting growth.
What to Expect
In our first session, I focus on understanding your experiences, concerns, and goals for therapy. I create a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can speak openly and feel heard. Together, we will develop a personalized treatment plan grounded in evidence-based psychotherapy approaches tailored to your individual needs, helping you build insight, strengthen coping skills, and make meaningful progress over time.
