More about Joseph
- 6 years' experience
- Male
- LPC
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 6 years of experience helping clients through difficult life changes, grief, depression, and anxiety.
I center my care within openness and compassion so that we may work together as you learn to care for yourself, and explore what brings meaning into your life.
I primarily rely on the theory of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, but also incorporate Narrative Therapy, and other creative outlets such as writing prompts, and inner-child work in collaboration with my clients. I have experience working with persons who identify as queer or a part of the LGBTQIA+ community.
I specialize in providing care to clients who need support for bereavement, as well as non-death related losses such as the loss of job, relationship, and other personal losses.

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.
