She is absolutely fabulous. She listens so well and her feedback is straight forward and honest. You may not like it or agree -- but you can tell her that and she respects you view and your opinions. It's so wonderful to have real conversations about real issues -- and have tangible answers I can implement in my life. Lonetta has a packed schedule -- but if you spend any time with her you will understand why. She helps so many people in so many different situations. If you are lucky enough to get on her schedule, you will definitely be on your way to your best self.

More about Lonetta

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCPC

I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor in Maryland with over 13 years of experience working in the behavioral health field. I have worked with clients with a wide range of ages and concerns including trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, mood disorders, and ADHD.

My counseling style is collaborative and client-centered. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My biopsychosocial approach to counseling combines cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, psychodynamic and rational-emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

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 empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

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.

Lonetta Mason actually listens and responds. She's empathetic and sympathetic -- without judging. She has plenty of very real experiences in her young life to truly understand what's going on. If "homework" is your thing, she can definitely accommodate you. If not -- she fine with that too. If you get Lonetta as your therapist, you are on your way to finding answers. It won't be quick or cookie-cutter -- but it will involve some hard looks at your life, with lasting results. It's a big step -- but please know you are doing the right thing.

Lonetta has been great in helping me organize my thoughts and figure out what important steps I need to take for my personal growth and wellbeing. She gets straight to the point and doesn’t beat around the bush which I love.

I have only had one session with Lonetta so far but she has felt like the best fit for me as a therapist! It felt more like talking to a friend than a therapist really. I felt so comfortable after just one session. I like her therapy style - I felt that she was really listening to me and letting me air my concerns and then would give her opinion/provide solutions but in a way that felt more genuine rather than so clinical. Also she was very flexible with me and we've now set up a weekly session which I really appreciate. I look forward to continuing working with Lonetta!

Lonetta has been incredible at identifying the underlying issues among the tidal wave of emotions that I’ve been overwhelmed with. She helped me see the situation in more simple and logical terms with great kindness and empathy. She didn’t overstimulate or make judgments and rather was a very calming and open presence. I could speak in any terms and did not have to filter my scrambled thoughts and she somehow managed to see right through and completely understand what I was trying to say. It’s crucial for anyone who needs help that they feel heard and Lonetta really heard me. I got the help I desperately needed at the time and all the practical and effective self-care, stress management and change of perspective I could use for future situations. I’m in a much better place in a couple weeks with Lonetta at Better Help than I have been for several months. Thank you
