Hello and welcome!
First, I want to commend you for your willingness to grow and change by seeking out therapy. Next, I would like to introduce myself. My name is NaTanya Smith. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Texas. Together, with my 5 years experience as a counselling intern and another 5 years as a fully licensed counselor/therapist, I have a total of 10 years in the mental health arena. I've worked with clients dealing with grief and loss, substance abuse, self-esteem issues, communication, depression, and anger management. I've counseled in group settings as well as individual settings.
My approach to counseling is that of a guide and partner in the client's best self and positive well being. I use client centered therapy combined with solution focused and cognitive behavior therapy (CBT). Above all, my goals in counseling are to provide what is best for you the client.
I hope you are ready for the journey to becoming the best version of yourself!

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.
