Debra Schmid, LMFT
Licensed in: California
I became a therapist because I have always found fulfillment in helping others through life’s challenges. I believe in creating a space where clients feel safe, heard, and empowered to work through past experiences and build a healthier future. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, guiding clients toward healing and personal growth.

About Me
I earned my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy (LMFT) from the University of La Verne in 2006 and have since dedicated my career to supporting individuals struggling with trauma, attachment issues, and anxiety. Utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), mindfulness techniques, and IFS, I tailor my approach to meet each client’s unique needs. My goal is to help clients process their experiences, strengthen relationships, and develop the tools they need to move forward with confidence.
