More about Belinda

- LPC
I am a licensed professional counselor. I have extensive experience treating stress related issues, anxiety and depression. I have advanced training and experience in trauma treatment and resolution and I am a certified EMDR therapist and EMDR Consultant. Throughout my career I have worked in community settings, corrections settings and military settings. My early experience includes the establishment of a family counseling program in an inpatient substance abuse treatment facility. In addition, I have run an outpatient clinic for mental health and substance abuse issues. I am a Christian counselor and happy to work with you on topics of faith and your Christian walk through life. The past seven years I have worked with military families and services members regarding issues of military service and combat deployments. I am passionate about my work and consider it a calling for my life. I look forward to meeting you soon. SCHEDULING NOTE: If your schedule does not fit my availability shown, please let me know and I will do my best to accommodate your time preferences.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
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.

Overall rating:
She is amazing! Highly recommend!
I feel overall my sessions were good, however I felt I gain more awareness and knowledge from outside sources.
It’s only been a month but I take comfort in knowing I have someone to talk to that won’t judge me and understands my circumstances
Good listener, hears me. She validates me, but gets to the heart of the issue, which sometimes stings. Good advice.
