More about Ross

  • 12 years' experience
  • Male
  • LMFT

I am a Person-Centered Therapist that focuses on creating a cooperative and respectful relationship to enhance the identification of your needs, goals, and progression towards them. I utilize a customized therapy style that fits your current state pulling from CBT, Collaborative, Narrative and Solution Focused models. I believe in a holistic approach of mind and body affecting the greater outcome, so I may also bring in techniques from Mindfulness, physical health and Biofeedback. These can allow you to find solutions for long lasting changes. My priority is not just to reach your current goal, but stability that will last beyond counseling, where you can recognize and enhance your strengths and adaptability to deal with any issues that may present themselves on your own.

I have an MA and Ph.D classes in Marriage and Family Therapy with over 10 years of working with those self-reporting a wide range of concerns, including but not limited to many forms of: Depression, Anxiety, Relationship Issues, Emotional Trauma, Co-Dependency, Adultery/Cheating, and Motivation.

I hope we can work together, I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Affordable.

Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.

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.

Great therapist, attentive, responsive, gives sound advice. Listens closely to everything and offers input. Empathetic and funny

Reviewed March 2022

Ross has been extremely helpful in providing not just support where I've been looking for it, but also in giving me some exercises to do in an effort to get a better grounding for further improvement. He listens and responds daily to all questions that have been asked, as well as giving advice outside of scheduled sessions that can be put into action as soon as possible, instead of needing to remember all the things I want to talk about each week.
