More about Barbara

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

I am licensed in Texas with 4 years of professional work experience as a Counselor, and 20 years as a licensed social worker. From all walks of life I've met people where they are, as they are. Listened, to learn what's happening, what hurts, what you are wanting to change.

Stress, anxiety, career difficulties, & depression can come into life sometimes. It can be hard.

As the expert of your story you can share and I can be a listening heart,a safe place to talk openly.

I'll remind you of your strengths you can use to face challenges. And new ways to consider things. If you are a person of faith, or spiritual beliefs I'm open to including them in our counseling process. It's always your choice though, and will honor your decisions.

It takes courage to take a step to change, to move toward a life of your own design. I am an ally to support you along the journey.

About online counseling

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
