More about Ryan
- 8 years' experience
- Male
- LCSW
I am a licensed clinical social worker with over eight years of experience working as a therapist. I am licensed in the state of California and Pennslyvania. I have experience in working with depression, anxiety, and trauma. My approach to therapy is to be warm, understanding, and an active listener. I do not believe that there is one universal therapeutic intervention for every mental health issue. I believe in finding the best evidence-based intervention that best meets the needs of the client. I believe that therapy can be for anyone and I want to work on breaking the stigma that therapy is only for the weak or sick. We all go through tough times and I want to let you know that you are not alone. I look forward to working with you.

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.
