More about Ardean

  • 15 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

Hello, My name is Ardean. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 11 years of experience working as a chaplain and 15 years as a counselor. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, spiritual problems, life and career challenges, I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, short term brief, solution-focused, and person-centered counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

I want to support you in the best way possible. Good results are achieved with regular communication with your counselor. It's even better when those sessions are live--by chat, phone or video. The best results come with weekly video sessions with your counselor. My goal is to help you achieve your goals as quickly as possible.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and walk along side you.

I look forward to working with you!I

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Over the years Ardean has been such a kind, caring listening ear in my life. Her wisdom and ability to give a new perspective really saved me from a dark place. I'm grateful that she can be honest with me and help me to express what I'm feeling. She also gave me some work sheets that were admittedly hard to get through but really helped me show progress over a long term and it feels really good. I appreciate her work!

I've worked with Ardean for a good chunk of time now and I'm so grateful BetterHelp brought us together. She always knows what to say and has a good balance of professionalism and friendliness. The best listener! Always reads every word in my walls of text. I love being able to get things off my mind and being able to hear it put into perspective to help me grow.

I've really appreciated Ardean's help over our time together. She took things at a good pace, gave me a lot of time to open up and be reflective, yet challenging enough to help me grow. I really, really valued and remembered a lot of our conversations. It's been quite a bit of time but I'll always be grateful that BetterHelp brought us together.

Ardean is such a lovely person to work with and her kindness and wisdom really shine. She's exactly what I needed and has a good balance of listening and responding and is also able to challenge me in manageable ways to move me forward. Her technique lets me guide the conversation but doesn't let things get awkward when I don't know what to say. Very grateful for her.

Just so grateful to have a therapist that feels like they can relate and comfort as well as analyze and advise. It’s such a balance of ‘friend’ and ‘doctor’. I trust there is no judgement it is such an open safe space but also a professional space with an educated therapist who can accurately and effectively help me.
