Hi Debra,
I just wanted to tell you that I received a final payment from [redacted] last night. . .I also wanted to thank you one more time for all the help you gave me. It really helped me get results when I thought there was nothing more I could do. I couldn't have done it with out you!
Thank you so much!

"In the midst of a conflicted work situation with strong personalities at play, Debra was able to bring her calm and counsel. While none of us could have foretold the outcome, we all grew as persons and as an organization to remain true to our own sense of integrity. Debra anchored us to our truth with compassion and empathy in a turbulent time."
