Hello, my name is Vincent Ballard. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 5 years of experience working with youth and adults in outpatient, inpatient, and community-based programs. I am clinically trained as a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist (CBT) and with additional professionally training in Solution Focused Brief Therapy as well as Trauma Informed Care. I work with adult men and women as well as teenagers. I believe that the body and mind need to be cared for dutifully and that when one aspect of our health suffers, it has a detrimental impact on the rest of our health.

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.
