I am delighted to be your counselor. I am currently a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S in the State of Texas. I hold Master Degree in Professional Counseling from Amberton University in Garland, Texas, and a BA Degree in Christian/Pastoral Counseling from Criswell College in Dallas, Texas. I have over twenty-five years of experience in Christian Counseling, and I am a multicultural therapist. I help clients from diverse background and culture. My treatment approach includes cognitive behavior, rational emotive, solution-focus, behavior modification and evident-based theories to help clients achieve meaningful goals to live a productive life that they are seeking counseling for. It takes courage to seek help, you have taken the first step towards your goal.

My treatment focus includes relationship issues, family, depression, anxiety, parenting, religion, grief and trauma. Over the years, I have helped many clients overcome life's challenges and difficulties that seemed impossible. My counseling environment is full of trust and common sense approach. The value of each session is like the value of a postal stamp, we will stick to it till we get there.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online 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.

Wow! I started my journey of recovering from Depression and Anxiety of the loss of my father with Nathan first via phone call, he was empathic, allowed me to express myself in a way I hadn't been able to with anyone. Encouraged me and assured me what I felt was from a place that I wouldn't have figured out without his guidance, in from this take away of Week 1 of counseling, I have had a NIGHT and DAY experience, I am doing better at work, in the gym, in my family time, in my heart, mind and soul and spirit. I felt a massive shift and began sharing my testimony and fathers legacy in the form of Encouragement and Empowerment to my family, friends and church. I have had a milestone experience here and plan to stay to grow more and would encourage all to try! Thank you Nathan Kortu and BetterHelp
