More about Aaron

  • 8 years' experience

  • LPC

Life can be hard work and I am here to help you through the inevitable struggles. Whether you are facing a major circumstantial stressor, or if there are continuing patterns that you need to process with a professional, I would be delighted to walk with you through your therapeutic needs as your therapist. I have extensive experience working with a wide spectrum of individuals with varying mental health, cultural, racial, religious, sexual, and gender backgrounds. My main goal as your therapist is to help you feel seen, valued, and empowered to be the best version of yourself.

After obtaining my Master's Degree in counseling over a decade ago, I completed a post-masters internship at a large, non-profit counseling center in the Houston metro area.  After obtaining my license, I continued to work in the non-profit sector and also continued in private practice. Over the years I have completed additional training in working with both married and dating couples through John Gottman method training, the premier researcher on marital success, satisfaction, and therapy. I also continued my education by becoming a certified sex therapist. Although I have an extensive background working with couples, therapy comes down each individual’s work in their own lives. All of my training and education has carried with it thoughtful integration of current mental health treatment into each individual’s specific therapeutic process.

I intentionally create a safe, open space to explore sensitive issues in order for my clients to be able to safely and openly process in a healing environment. What I'm most passionate about is you, the client, and what you need right now at this very moment in your life. I genuinely care about each individual that sits in front of me and I honor each of their stories, where they’ve come from, where they are currently, and the potential they have inside of them. It would be an honor to be your therapist. Feel free to message me to schedule an appointment so we can plan together how to help you have the life you long for.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.
