More about John

  • 11 years' experience
  • Male
  • LPC

PhD, LPC-S, LCDC. Licensed in both Arizona and Texas, I have over 10-years of clinical supervisor experience (LPC-S). My expertise is working with individuals experiencing life stressors, including determining values and finding meaning and purpose in life, work-life balance, stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, parenthood, family stress, and relationship endings. My goal is to help you understand new perspectives and gain control of your life. I work with individuals struggling with addiction, bipolar, relationship crises, trauma, depression, and grief.

As your therapist, I believe in fostering a sense of hope. My counseling style is always open, highly interactive, and positive. I believe that you are the expert on your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming challenges. In addition to providing feedback, I will pose challenges and make observations that you are encouraged to analyze, reject, or discuss in greater detail. Our collaboration will ensure that you achieve your therapy goals and are satisfied with the results.

Getting started in therapy takes courage, so congratulations on taking the first step!

About online counseling

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.
