Hi there — I’m so glad you’re here.

My name is Deborah (Debbie) and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with a heart for holding space where healing, self-discovery, and personal transformation can take place. I believe that therapy is not just about coping — it’s about becoming.

With over three years of experience as a therapist and a background in mental health leadership, I specialize in working with adults navigating anxiety, depression, identity issues, life transitions, self-worth, and trauma recovery. I am especially passionate about supporting those from culturally diverse backgrounds, providing care that honors your story, your voice, and your truth.

I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling and am currently pursuing my Doctorate in Organizational Leadership with an emphasis in Behavioral Health. I’ve worked across both agency and private practice settings, and now I’m honored to serve through my own practice, Guided Grace Behavioral Health — a virtual space created for people who are ready to do the inner work in a safe, intentional, and inclusively sensitive environment.

Whether this is your first time in therapy or you’re returning to continue your journey, I would be honored to walk alongside you. Let’s reclaim your peace, your purpose, and your power — one session at a time.

Wael Shadid

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Phoenix, AZ


To anyone watching from the outside, you have it together. You execute, you deliver, and you keep moving forward. But beneath the surface, the engine never actually idles.

You live in a state of high-functioning exhaustion, navigating an internal friction where past stress, unresolved experiences, and relentless self-imposed standards quietly dictate how you operate. You’ve likely tried out-thinking the pressure, relying on sheer discipline, or pushing through the static, only to find yourself feeling disconnected from the very life and goals you’ve worked so hard to build.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I hold a B.S. in Psychology from Arizona State University and a Master’s in Counseling from Ottawa University, with a concentration in the treatment of trauma, abuse, and deprivation. I have years of experience treating anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic pain, and addiction. I also have a focus in the support of medical professionals, lawyers, executives, and other high-performers. I'm fluent in English and Arabic, and provide a space where immigrant and first-generation clients feel deeply understood.

Welcome! I'm Erika Tweed, owner of See the Good Therapy.
