Director, Cognitive Behavioral Wellness Coaching Program
Deborah Beck Busis, LCSW, is Director of the Cognitive Behavioral Wellness Coaching Program at Beck Institute. She received her undergraduate and social work degrees from the University of Pennsylvania. Ms. Busis has treated clients with a wide variety of difficulties in community mental health but is now focused on coaching clients who need help reaching their personal health goals, including eating healthier, decreasing emotional eating, managing stress, coping with life transitions, and more. She teaches her clients cognitive and behavioral skills such as how to motivate themselves, how to use good habits even when they’re tempted not to, how to stay on track, and how to immediately get back on track after making a mistake.
In addition to coaching, she also supervises and trains professionals throughout the country in the cognitive behavioral program outlined in The Beck Diet Solution: Train Your Brain to Think Like a Thin Person. She co-wrote The Diet Trap Solution.
