More about Wilbur
- 3 years' experience
- Male
- LPC
Hi, my name is Wilbur and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have 3 years of experience working as a therapist and have worked with clients ranging from teens to late adulthood, concerning depression, anxiety, parenting stressors, relationship issues, family problems, career challenges/burnout, chronic pain/chronic illness, grief counseling, and transitioning life stages, as well abuse and trauma (sexual, verbal, physical, emotional).
My therapy style is eclectic and my approach combines cognitive-behavioral therapy and person-centered therapy tailored to understand the individual and working with them to meet unique and specific needs. I believe everyone deserves to be given a non-judgmental space where they are free to be their best and worst selves so they can discover how or who they want to be moving forward. I believe in the simultaneous drawback of labels: how they can help create new identity and completion as well as stigmatize and limit. Working together will necessitate a greater sense of self-awareness.
Whether you are seeking change for a healthier happier life, or just need a non judgmental ear to listen, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

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.

Never judgmental and always praising me for my accomplishments…love him
He listens and tries to break things down and put things in perspective for me . He guides me to reflection and help me start to place boundaries and figure out what boundaries look like to me.
Wilbur has been such a great help. With the past few sessions we have had, he has been able to get me to see things from a new perspective and to really help me get out of my head when I need to.
Wilbur is the most kindest therapist I’ve ever had. I have not had therapy before meeting Wilbur, and I’m so glad to have got a great therapist experience the first time around. Wilbur is kind, patient, knowledgeable.
