About Deborah Landwehr

Deborah Landwehr is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Iowa with three years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, family conflict, low self-esteem, and depression, and she brings additional focus to caregiver stress, communication problems, divorce and separation, and issues around life purpose and self-love.

Deborah approaches therapy from a strengths-based perspective, holding the view that each person is the expert of their own story and already possesses resources to move through difficulty. She combines client-centered listening with evidence-informed techniques to help clients build practical skills and increase motivation and confidence. Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling life often takes courage, and Deborah aims to support that process with empathy, clear collaboration, and steady encouragement.

Her clinical toolkit includes approaches such as client-centered work, cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior principles, and mindfulness-informed practices, tailored to each person’s needs rather than applied in a one-size-fits-all way.

Therapeutic approaches and accessible online sessions



Deborah integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into her online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on active listening and empathy, helping people explore their goals and values while strengthening self-understanding and confidence. CBT offers structured techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stressful patterns. DBT emphasizes skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness, making it helpful for mood instability, impulsivity, and relationship difficulties.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Deborah collaborates with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts methods over time so therapy remains practical and relevant.

Online therapy with Deborah is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels.
