About Debra Hayton

I am licensed in Montana with more than 23 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, marital issues, relationship discord, depression, mood disorders, psychosis, coping with grief and loss, motivation, parenting, geriatrics, self esteem, confidence and sleep issues. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. I am here to support & empower you on that journey.
I am a Christian but I do not force my beliefs on anyone. I hope you will explore my background with an open mind and heart.
