More about JP

  • 16 years' experience
  • Male
  • LPCC, LPC

My primary objective is to create a safe and nurturing environment where individuals, couples, and families can explore and enhance their emotional and mental well-being. Utilizing a client-centered approach rooted in humanistic principles, I actively collaborate with my clients to deeply understand their unique needs and aspirations. From this understanding, I develop personalized interventions that foster growth and progress.

Rather than fixating solely on problems or pathology, I integrate the strengths and resources of my clients into my therapeutic approach. By doing so, I cultivate a sense of empowerment and resilience within them, enabling them to overcome obstacles and achieve their objectives.

With extensive experience as a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in California and Texas, I have had the privilege of working with diverse individuals, including children, older adults, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. My background in school counseling and non-profit agencies has given me a deep understanding of the psychological challenges that can arise within these populations. My therapeutic approach focuses on building positive communication and nurturing meaningful client relationships. I prioritize establishing healthy coping strategies and facilitating lasting interpersonal changes within a culturally sensitive framework. Through compassionate and respectful guidance, I work collaboratively with my clients to help them achieve their personalized goals.

Please note that I operate in the central standard time zone (GMT+6), and my working hours generally span from 10 AM to 5 PM. Kindly be aware that I am typically unavailable during weekends and evenings.

As an esteemed Saint Mary's College of California graduate, I am fully committed to providing tailored therapy services to individuals. I am delighted to offer online therapy sessions as a convenient and accessible support form.

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.

I've been in therapy before. It was one-sided, though. We never got past psychoanalysis. With JP, I get support in various ways. I understand better what happened to me and how it affects me. Understanding the past does not automatically change the present. JP helps me to adapt my behavior. Behavioral changes take time... and it is hard. It is worth the effort, though, and I feel JP is the right person to guide me through this journey. He is supportive, responsive, engaged and invested.

JP is one of the most compassionate and impactful therapists I've ever had the pleasure of working with. I came to him with a handful of issues and one by one we've been able to process them and remedy them. JP has developed a wonderful capacity to know when to be compassionate towards your emotions, and when to challenge your thoughts, this has what has enabled him to have such a great impact on me. That being said after working with him on a weekly basis for nearly a year now we have finally made enough progress that he has told me that I don't need him anymore. I could not be more elated. Please do yourself as favor and utilize JP. I hope you can also achieve the same amount of success I have had with him.

"JP" - Jean De Oliveira - is a great listener and an awesome human being. He makes it easy to share any insecurities, trauma, or shadows of ourselves with him. When we started working, I was in a stressful time and had many family issues - I was sad, depressed, frustrated, and out of touch with my genuine self. I didn't have any boundaries established and didn't feel like I was accomplishing anything with my life. As soon as I started my therapy with JP, I began to see why I was feeling that way, why I was reacting the way I was reacting, how past experiences were affecting my present and many other things. If you are searching for a psychologist that you can talk with openly, feel confident that he is listening, and hold you accountable, Jean is all these things. He truly cares, plus he is funny. For me, his sense of humor is an excellent quality because it makes me connect with him and makes me feel less alone. I feel that I'm back home to myself again and have new insights to keep going and create the life that I want. Thank you, JP!!!

Jean is a great therapist. I previously had a few therapists on BetterHelp that weren’t good and didn’t seem to fit in as mental health professionals, but Jean is great. He’s present at every session, very supportive, 10/10 much better experience than I had with others. Would definitely highly recommend to anyone.

Jean De Oliveira is truly a comfort and such a beacon understanding. He listens well and truly remembers the things you speak about and is very good at kindly keeping you accountable. He is always prompt with responding to messages and nothing is ever "too much". He has so many different kinds of tools to help his patients, from books, movies, articles, interactive websites.

Jean-Pierre helped me understand myself better after just a couple of weeks of therapy with him. He is a good listener and gave me many resources and suggestions to help me. The conversation feels warmer and more human with him, even though it's an online therapy. JP is also one of the few therapists on this app who speaks French, merci :)

Jean De Oliveira is very kind, warm natured, astute, has excellent insight which had proven to be incredibly beneficial for me with help with processing trauma. He offers practical advice, has sent me links to books, websites, even things on YouTube that he felt would be a help to me. I've learnt things about myself that I didn't know from Jean. It has been an interesting journey that he is helping me navigate. He has a lovely makeup. Very kind and empathetic; a sense of humour which helps lighten moments in a session. He did research about a certain topic I had been speaking about which surprised me that he would take the time and trouble and the initiative. He is very accommodating with session times. He is genuine and truly cares about his clients. He is an absolute blessing, non judgmental. I'm very thankful to Jean and highly recommend him.

JP has been a huge force in helping me understand myself and my issues better. I started therapy a half a year ago and ever since I swapped therapist to JP I feel like I have been making progress. Not only does he understand me but he also puts everything in a way that I can understand myself. Overall he is also a really funny and empathetic guy where it's very easy to just share all your thoughts and feelings. I can recommend JP if you are looking for someone who will actually care about making your life a better place.

Jean has been very helpful. Great listener and very willing to help me decide if I'd be a good betterhelp counselor. I have my LPCC like Jean and he was able to share his own experience working as an online therapist both for BetterHelp and other organizations. I'd highly recommend him to others and would certainly consider reaching out to him again if I had another need for my own personal counseling.
