I appreciate Dr. Fokas’ personable approach to counseling, which makes the therapy less like a treatment but more like a normal process of recalibrating myself with his support and guidance.

I have been practicing since 1999. I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist in California I have masters in counseling psychology and a doctorate in Marriage and Family therapy I believe childhood experience informs individuals on how to think and behave in adulthood. Gaining insight of how those experiences affected an individual, permits an individual to make changes in their belief system about self and others that is no longer adaptive.
Once issues have been identified it's important to process through past experiences. I use EMDR, letter writing, psychodynamic intervention to name a few to help my clients resolve past traumatic experiences.
I have a relatable approach to therapy in that I don't see therapy as a clinical interaction I see it more as a relational interaction.
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. Ranging from $60 to $90 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.
