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.

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.
