Optimal Leap, Inc - 24/7 Support

My fiancé and I were experiencing a bout of miscommunication and extreme frustration. We decided we needed help to navigate a path forward. He did some research and inquired with Deborah. From her first contact with me, I felt safe and reassured. She spoke with me individually to uncover my concerns regarding the relationship and we soon scheduled our first session. She was very balanced in how she addressed both of us. She held each of us accountable for our contributions toward the triumphs and defeats in our partnership. She never expressed favoritism nor did she ever appear to be inserting her personal opinion. One of the components I enjoyed most were the assignments she gave. Some were to be done individually, others as a couple. Every exercise was thought-provoking and growth-inducing. I truly enjoyed each of them. After approximately ten sessions, we are on the path of a more reflective, empathic, communicative union and we owe it to Deborah. We truly do. I am extraordinarily grateful for her professional, engaging and calm demeanor. We will continue to do check-ins with her to keep us on an upward trajectory and I’m grateful to have her as a valuable resource. Many thanks, Deborah! More...

I want to thank Deborah for being a catalyst to me and my fiancé reinventing our relationship. Deborah not only gave insight to our issues , but also gave us tools to use to resolve issues. Her style is very personable which creates ease in talking about challenges. I would definitely recommend her. More...

Id given up any hope of saving my marriage.
My husband and I had drifted so far apart, most days It felt as if I was living with a stranger.
We'd stopped doing things as a couple, he lived his life and I lived mine.
We'd lost our ability to communicate Im any meaningful way.
When i reached out to Optimal Leap Coaching, i wasn't sure what to expect.
i was surprized to recieve such a quick responce to my call.
Within 30 I recieved a call back from Deborah Brown.
I was so nervous I'd never shared the dark details of my marriage with anyone much less a stranger.
Deborah has a way about her that immediately put my mind at ease. I never once felt judged.
When my husband and I made the decision to go forward and give therapy a chance I was sure our work schedules would be yet another hurdle in attempting to schedule our appointments but Deborah was very understanding and so flexible to accomodate our needs.
From there the magic began to happen.
Every session I learned something new about myself or about my spouce.
Each week we were given more insight into learning the basic skills needed for the honest communication our marriage had lost.
I can't say enough how thankful I am to have found Optimal Leap and Deborah Brown. More...

We are new to couples counseling. We have been working with Deborah Brown for a couple months now. We both were hesitate about couples counseling. However, I am so happy that we did. Deborah creates an atmosphere that is relaxing and she is easy to be vulnerable with during sessions. We still have a looong way to go but I am confident that we will get there :-) More...

It was a hands on program where u had to interact not jus a sermon there was homework to do that was required to be dun. I liked the approach ,conversation would go opposite way an then it would come around staring u down when u least expected seems really dedicated an down to earth More...

I contacted Deborah for help in communicating in my marriage. The homework she had us do was helpful and eye opening for both my husband and myself. It takes baby steps and a lot of work to not slip back into old habits but I feel like we are getting there. I would highly recommend Deborah for couples coaching. More...

Bring a mom can be tough on my social life. I needed help reconnecting with others professionally and personally. With my mom recently passing I felt stuck. Deborah help me discover easy comfortable paths to becoming more social at work and home. There were even things I wanted to do like get my master degree or take a cruise, that felt like I'll get there someday. Deborah helped me see how I could achieve these longer term goals sooner. We also had a premarital session with my fiance. She help us see the value of prioritizing our date night on the regular. I appreciate the road of success I'm on now thanks to Deborah. I highly recommend her for any situation life brings up. More...

I haven’t completed all sessions yet however, I am loving the approach of how things are going, and look forward to more sessions

My gf and I were having trouble with communication. Could not figure out how to properly communicate with one another without arguing. After 4 sessions with Deborah, we understand one another much better. I am communicating most of my thoughts and emotions which helps my gf not have crazy reactions toward me. The approach that was given worked well for the both of us. Deborah was great with how quick her responses were to our problems. It was like she knew what to say midway through our sentences. Thank you again Deborah! More...

Deborah has been great. She is very helpful in getting to the root cause of a problem. She always makes sure to check in with both partners about how they feel/view the problem. Her way of thinking and real life scenarios really help to give another perspective. She has really helped us get back on track! 10/10 recommend More...

Deborah is very understanding, compassionate and helpful. She always made sure both my own and my girlfriend's avoided were heard and constantly gave beneficial advice that has helped move our relationship in the right direction. She breaks down small issues and big and gives you tools to better yourself and your relationship at every step of the way. Cannot recommend more, go with Deborah! More...

I rate Deborah Brown an 11 on a scale of 1- 10. She is easy to talk with and excellent at asking the right questions to help one look at himself to discover what has always been there hiding in plain sight. My marriage wasn't saved but my insight and attitude for my next marriage is spot on for great success and I am thankful for the sessions I had with Deborah. She was a priceless instrument on my journey to healing and I thank God for her daily. Sincere, positive, caring and very professional tool to have in this workshop called life and relationship! More...

She’s a very good therapist. She seems very personable, really gets to know us and feels like she really cares. Quick and easy appointment setup. Very helpful towards my relationship therapy. More...

I have had a great experience working with Ms Deborah in my professional and personal life. Ms Deborah takes the time to listen and study your individual situation, she handled my case as if it was her very own problem. I would highly recommend Ms Deborah to my closest friends and relatives. If you lost a needle in a hay stack SHE is the one to find it for you. !!! More...

This was the first time I have used this type of service, and I was initially apprehensive. After the first meeting, I felt at ease. I did not feel I was being judged and felt that the counseling was objective and genuine. I highly recommend this service as I have grown mentally. More...

Deborah is a wonderful counselor. She's helped my girlfriend and I better understand each other and has allowed for much better communication and understanding.

If you are looking for the best in a relationship look no farther Deborah is the one she understands and how to bring out the best in our relationship and the ability to understand where an how to fix it I can’t say enough she is the very best Thank you for helping to heal my relationship

Deborah helped my husband and I find trust again. We were able to finally be honest with each other and ourselves. Our marriage of 36 years was unraveling. With Deborah’s help, not only were we able to start trusting each other again, but we were able to rekindle romance and intimacy. The “homework” she assigned us was super insightful and practical! I highly recommend her! More...

My partner and I started working with Deborah during an extremely rough period in our relationship. Through our work with Deborah, we have improved our communication, relearned to trust, and be vulnerable with one another.
As a therapist, Deborah is great at addressing issues, giving constructive criticism, and playing fair. She gives appropriate handouts/homework to help continue work in between sessions and she makes sure to pick up right where we left off.
I am happy to say my partner and I are stronger and closer than ever. More...

Deborah is amazing! She doesn't take sides and really helps us get to the root of our issues. She's very skilled in opening us up to see the other person's perspective. We're having a great experience and have grown so much since starting counseling with her. More...

Deborah has been amazing and extremely open to my difficult schedule. She is helping me and my significant other work through a lot of couples difficulties. She has been patient kind but fair throughout the whole entire process. Thanks to her assistance we have been able to progress into a way healthier and by far more stable relationship than when we started More...

Deborah helped my husband and me with ways to improve communication. She was patient and fair, encouraging us to both express ourselves. Deborah gave us tools to better communicate and understand each other better. She also encouraged us to understand each other’s love languages, which up until then, I had not realized were different for each of us. We are still a work in progress but have greatly improved our relationship since meeting with Deborah.

Prior to meeting with Deborah, our relationship was rocky and we simply could not get on the same page to effectively communicate. This inability to effectively communicate has us very derailed and literally in the danger zone. I had talked with another counselor prior to Deborah and it seemed to be a colossal waste of time for both the counselor and myself.

Upon my initial call with Deborah, I had such a good feeling that she was indeed the person for my wife and I. I excitedly shared my optimism with my wife later that evening when she returned from the gym. Following our first joint call with Deborah, my wife agreed that we were going to be in great hands. Deborah has the unique ability to make all parties feel relaxed, comfortable and willing to be vulnerable as part of her highly effective sessions. Honestly, we were both amazed at how her effectiveness coupled with her professionalism enabled us to calmly communicate with each other.

If you're looking for a true professional, put your trust in Deborah and start sharing positive experiences with your partner.

My nephew passed away a year ago. I’ve been struggling dealing with his death.
I needed help. My therapist Deborah was so easy to talk to. She encouraged me to open up and see things more clearly.
I’m so thankful to have found her. More...

Deborah is AMAZING!! I would not have a husband today if it wasn’t for her. My husband and I were on the edge of separation when we were engaged. Deborah’s approach was extremely helpful into opening up our relationship and allowing us to become closer. If you really want to know your partner at a deeper level and open the lines of communication, Deborah is the right fit for you! More...

Working with Deborah allowed me to see things in a better perspective. The homework she gave us helped us realize the things we love about each other, that there’s a lot of things we can do for date ideas and most importantly, how to make each other feel loved, appreciated and respected. I recommend Deborah to any couple seeking help whether it be communication or even those who are out of touch. Thank you so much for helping and making every response a genuine one and not one most therapists just say or do. More...

Deborah is phenomenal! I felt very comfortable and understood with her during my sessions. She helped my boyfriend and I talk out a lot of our issues and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a relationship therapist. She’s really the best!

Working with Deborah Brown was an amazing experience, she really came through for my wife and I during a tough time. I highly recommend her and her expertise you won't regret it.

Very helpful website found many professionals within hours.

Gives amazing advice and talks to you as though you’re a friend more than a “patient”. Very warm voice and non judgmental. I highly recommend going to her!

Working with Deborah has been a game changing. When we first started our sessions together, I was at a low place in my life. My self esteem and confidence were at an all time low. Through my sessions with Deborah, I was able to find my self worth again. I would even say that it has grown a lot more from what it used to be, even before hitting my low point. More...

Deborah has helped my marriage tremendously by giving my wife and I the tools we needed that allow us to communicate better. In just a few sessions, she helped me realize how my failure to communicate well with my spouse led to bigger issues. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to strengthen their communicating and understanding of their partner. She also was able to work around our hectic schedule. I'm very grateful for her help!! More...

So I began having phone consultations with Deborah when my marriage was coming to an end and my life seemed to be spiraling out of control. Deborah helped me come to find out a lot of truths about myself and about the situation. With her help I was able to come to terms with the divorce and began the work in making changes that would help me in the future. I found out a lot about myself, and I have come a long way. I owe a lot of my success to the helpful words and coaching from my counselor. More...

Deborah is very soft spoken and friendly atmosphere during therapy to make you feel comfortable opening up to her. I enjoyed her therapy sessions and feel it was a push in the right direction to unfold hidden communication issues and we never knew we had.

Married 10+ years and needed some help with communication and reconnecting. Once a week relationship coaching was just what we needed to help understand each others perspective and make small changes with big results. Deborah helps foster open communication with excercises and assignments that are very easy but also very eye opening. More...

Immediate response and professional

Working with Deborah help me a lot. She is professional and easy to talk to. I would highly recommend her.

Deborah has helped us immensely with her encouraging words, her belief in us, her mediation skills, and her nurturing nature. We thought our marriage was going to come to an end but her advice and her assignments gave us the chance to really work on ourselves both individually and as a couple. We have a chance after all. More...

Working with Deborah has been life-changing. Her no-nonsense, tough-love approach to life coaching was what I needed to overcome my toughest obstacles. Highly encourage anyone who needs a partner to help them change their behaviors and ways of thinking for the better to reach out to Deborah. I promise you won't regret it. More...

So incredibly thankful that I found Deborah through the bark platform. We have been working together on and off for over 18 months and I couldn't recommend a better coach.

I really enjoyed our time with Deborah. My partner and I were having trouble communicating and Deborah gave us some tools to use that we could use forever and they worked wonderfully. She was great mediating and very understanding. We were so close to breaking up but she made us realize how much we really cared about each other. More...

Working with 24/7 Optimal Coaching has been a great experience. Having a coach be available 24/7 was totally unbelievable! I sought out resources to help me as I tapered off of prescription meds for depression (pandemic, politics, etc.) and it is a great scaffold towards the drug-free life I deserve.

Deborah, is an incredible coach! She is prompt, courteous, empathetic, holds me accountable, and shows me how to do the work to find my authentic self. During each session with her, I see facets of myself "show up" that I had forgotten ever existed. She also leads me to envision my best life and helps me realize that I am worth it.
Warning: Be prepared to ask and answer some of the toughest questions you'll ever ask yourself though. Deborah Brown is the real deal and she will help you discover your real you! More...

Deborah did a really good job in getting my husband and I to open up to each other without judgement. It was the push we needed to get our marriage back on track.

Deborah called me within minutes if my search and I had my first seasons two days later. Super easy.

We came to Deborah with no specific relationship issues but instead looking for preventative measures for issues that may arise. She instantly exceeded our expectations with seasoned viewpoints and amazing exercises that helped my, now, wife and I build a solid foundation and our marriage. Through our counseling, my wife and I I’ve built a daily routine that allows us to communicate openly and resolve any minor or great issues before bed. We are truly grateful for our time spent with Deborah, she has helped us tremendously. I have, and will continue, to recommend her to family and friends. More...
