About me

Hi, I'm Debra "Debbie" Pittman. I am a Licensed Certified Social Worker (LCSW) in Arkansas. I have worked with adolescents for 12 of my 14 years of practice. have worked with teens challenged by depression, anxiety, trauma, abuse, and other life changing circumstances as well as self-esteem/self-preception. I strive to help educate, strengthen and empower others, so they are more confident in living their life to the fullest. I meet people where they are, listen to learn the things they dream for their life and work with themto assist them to work out a road map to get there. I then also walk with them to help them along your journey and through painful obstacles. As no two people are alike, we tailor their plan to their unique and specific need. Taking the first steps towards change can be scary. It would be my honor to assist, support and empower them along thier path.

Debbie so far has been the only therapist I’ve been able to open up to. Very down to earth and makes you feel comfortable

Debra is easy to talk to. She helped me work through some childhood issues and how it affects my adult life. She is caring but direct when necessary.

Debra listened to me . I had tried another therapist locally and they did not explain to me what anxiety was or how it worked. Debra made me feel at ease immediately and explained exactly why I was feeling what I was feeling. She gave me skills to practice and gave me hope. I highly recommend Debra

Debra is wonderful! Talking with her is like talking with a girlfriend over coffee! She understands where I’m coming from and gives me license to say what’s on my mind. She is truly a safe space.

Work with me!
