More about Hope
- 19 years' experience

- LPC
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and I believe that to have a successful outcome in therapy, the client and therapist must first build a strong rapport. Once that foundation is laid, We will use one of several therapeutic modalities, depending on the issue at hand. These modalities may include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. An Integrated approach can be utilized as well.
I am a good listener, and caring, sensitive, and energetic. Not only do I have the necessary credentials, experience, and hours to be licensed, but I have a lifetime of experience and wisdom to draw from, which is invaluable! I like to think I am funny :)!
I have wanted to be a therapist since the age of 16 and that was a loooong time ago!

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Hope is amazing! She was so supportive and encouraging, and I really appreciated her sense of humor. She made me feel very comfortable being myself and which allowed me to open up and a share such private moments.
I'm so glad that I had Hope as my therapist. She was always attentive, patient, and understood what I needed early on. I'm in a good place mentally because of her help and I am forever grateful!
Thank you so much for this service!
Hope is an AMAZING therapist. I was hesitant and nervous about signing up with Betterhelp but I am so glad I did. I look forward to my weekly sessions, we're only two months in and Hope has saved/changed my life countless times. I highly recommend her and her expertise 10/10.
Thankful and blessed!
I've had a short amount of time with Hope, but so far she has been helpful.
