Debra Nobles Psychologist Ph,D., LPC

Dr. Nobles is an extremely positive psychologist and is outstanding at helping a person understand the reasons for the "hiding" behind the excess weight. My surgeon did not require a psychologist be involved in the process of pre and post surgery evaluations. I recognized, however, that I had for most of my life, sabotoged myself on every "success" or "partial success" I had ever had in attempts at weight loss. I took it upon myself to search for a psychologist to help "round out" the team I would have in place for my post-surgery support group. I went to another psychologist (3 visits) before my surgery, but decided that I really didn't care for him - felt he really wasn't listening to me or even paying attention to me. So, following my surgery, I began the search again and found Dr. Nobles. She has proven to be an outstanding professional and I really respect her knowledge and compassion. She has served as a "coach" for me to come out of the depression following the surgery and the added baggage I was carrying because of my husband of 17 years leaving me for another woman about 6 weeks after my surgery. She has helped me see that I have not only lost 204 lbs of excess fat, but also 241 lbs of unwanted baggage (my ex). I highly recommend Dr. Nobles to anyone needing a psychological "coach" through this unbelievably large step in taking control of your life. Thank you Dr. Nobles.
