More about Mitch

3 years' experience
Male
LPC

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Nationally Certified Counselor. I received my Bachelor's degree in Psychology from the University of Phoenix and my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Waynesburg University. I have been working in the field since 2015.

I previously worked at Christian Counseling Associates as a licensed professional counselor. I saw clients (Christian and non-Christian) dealing with a range of mental health, addiction, faith-based, and life concerns.

At the Washington City Mission, I also previously worked as a counselor and "house manager" wherein I counseled and aided the men and women of the newest program I helped design. I saw clients who dealt with a range of concerns, including mental health, addiction, life-adjustment, and faith-based concerns. I also taught classes and aided them in finding jobs and housing, including HUD and Section 8 locations.

I treat adolescents and adult patients with a variety of concerns such as mood

disorders, spiritual/faith-based issues, interpersonal problems, attention/concentration problems, history of trauma/abuse, and self-esteem. Each client receives person and heart-centered therapy

using several individualized, multi-modal techniques, including mindfulness-based, cognitive-behavioral, acceptance - commitment, gestalt, somatic, and faith-based approaches unique to the individual.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
