More about Jean
- 8 years' experience
- Female
- LMHC
I am licensed in New York with 7 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with LGBTQIA+ related issues, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, & anger management. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I have a laid back, genuine approach to counseling that usually makes people more comfortable. Counseling is not rocket science, it is a discussion and the building of options to create change. Together we can address the issues and create the needed changes. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

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.
