Debra Koenig is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Westport, CT with a tele-health practice in New York. Clients often seek psychotherapy because something feels “off” in their lives or there are struggles which develop as a result of developmental and life transitions in their families. Unexplored behavioral and emotional responses can keep us feeling “stuck” and prevent us from fulfilling relationships and careers. Each client is unique and there is no such thing as “one size, fits all” therapy. Successful therapy is a collaboration between the client and therapist. I provide both long-term treatment as well as shorter term support for clients facing a major setback/transition.
