I came into this type of therapy with so much disagreement but I am up keeping on this therapy because it actually touched my soul to know there's people out there that actually care about people like me ... anyways that's all I have to say about that lol
More about Aaron
- 8 years' experience
- Non-binary
- LPC
I enjoy working with adults from all walks of life, various faiths & belief systems, gender identities, & diverse minds. I help people feel heard, understood, & respected while working toward achieving their goals in an effective & efficient amount of time. I can help make sense of what you are going through while teaching skills & illuminating the steps to take toward healing, peace, and wellness. I enjoy helping others find out the "why(s)" of their behaviors & empowering them. Together, we can work towards fostering inner peace, self-acceptance, and meaningful growth on your journey towards healing and self-discovery.
I specialize in providing compassionate support to individuals facing anxiety, panic, depression, stress, OCD, gender dysphoria, or needing LGBTQ+ support. I believe that comfort with your therapist is the main indicator of success in treatment. Working with me you may notice I am laid-back, warm, & humorous. I help empower clients & cultivate resilience.
Your experiences, struggles, & emotions matter. Let's create a space where you feel validated, seen, & supported. Together, we'll explore effective coping strategies & work towards finding inner peace & resilience. You deserve support, & I'm here to help you navigate through these challenges. Counseling is for everyone.

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.

Absolutely amazing! Listens, understands, supports and helps me redirect.
I love that she listens and helps be figure out what I need for myself. We’ve only had two video sessions and I’m starting to feel more comfortable with our interaction.
