Welcome to Soul Wisdom Therapy

I’m Deborah Cohen, LMFT, Owner of Soul Wisdom Therapy. I’m glad you’re here.

People often ask, “How will knowing my 'soul wisdom' help me?”

Click here to reveal my response...

Here’s how.

At its deepest level, psychotherapy is “care of the soul.” And when you live from your soul wisdom—being able to access your deepest truth, your inner knowing and your intuition—it’s as if you have a compass to give you direction.

All things are possible.

Right now, you may be suffering without understanding what’s at the core. You feel stuck, anxious, fearful or depressed. And you’re caught inside repetitive patterns that undermine your forward movement. You long to feel excited about life, to feel pleasure and clarity, to enjoy your family and your work.

The path to your freedom lies within.

My mission is to help you find the key to greater peace, fulfillment, empowerment and joy in all aspects of your life.

I'd love to welcome you to my therapy and coaching practice. Click here to schedule your initial complimentary phone consultation today.
