More about Lydia

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am licensed in Texas and am experienced and passionate about helping clients heal from trauma to better manage stress and anxiety, relationship issues, & eating disorders. I also have experience in and love to help those struggling with religious or spiritual beliefs, autism, ADHD, sexuality/intimacy, OCD/control issues, aging, motherhood, depression and self esteem. I believe that YOU are the expert of your story! The answers are within you. I've been trained in various modalities and this will not be "talk therapy," but a treatment that will help you excavate the gems of your strengths within and reroute thought processes to help you heal, achieve your goals, and create the beautiful life you deserve. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes courage. I am proud of you for getting started and would be honored to support you on your journey to health and healing.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
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.
