More about John
- 5 years' experience
- Male
- LMHC
I have been a licensed therapist in Indiana for 5 years. I am an eclectic therapist, mostly combining techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Person Centered (Humanistic) counseling. This means that I will work with you to develop skills that fit you. I have experience working with a variety of mental health issues including ADHD, PTSD, depression, anxiety, anger, grief, etc.
Each person is unique, and I will work with you to develop treatment goals that are meant to fit you personally. My goal is not to take the role of an expert who tells you why you are wrong, but to be a guide that can help you discover your own path to recovery. My core focus is to work honestly, openly, and respectfully. I know that the choice to begin seeking therapy can be a hard step. And if you are uncertain of whether you will feel comfortable in therapy, I would be happy to talk and offer you a chance to decide.

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.
