Jack has a calming presence. I just started with him, so I don't know him well yet, but I feel comfortable with him. I feel like I am safe sharing things with him. He gives support and encouragement and unconditional acceptance. He is kind and gentle. I believe he is a very good therapist.

More about me
Years in Practice: 31 State: California
Hi!
I'm Jack.
I am a licensed Psychotherapist in California with more than thirty-one years of clinical experience. I have been working as a licensed counselor since 1989. I have experience conducting individual, couples and group therapy, both in the office, in a medical setting, in the field, and hospital settings. I have been an instructor working at the Masters level at three Universities in the area. I work well with depression, anxiety, relationships, parenting issues, grief/loss, insomnia, addiction, trauma, physical/sexual/emotional abuse, OCD, bipolar, as well as personal growth, adjustment issues, and crisis.
I utilize techniques from person-centered, solution/goal focused, and cognitive-behavioral approaches. I provide a judgment free, safe and supportive experience. This means that I attempt to join with you "where you are at". I believe that every behavior has a purpose and is an attempt to meet a need. It isn't until we discover what that need is and find a "healthier" or more "productive" way of meeting that need that the behavior no longer is necessary.
I look forward to working with you...

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.
