More about Justin
- 9 years' experience
- Male
- LPC
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, living and working in Virginia as an outpatient counselor. I have masters degrees in counseling and theology. Prior to working in the counseling field, I worked for nearly seven years as a hospice medical social worker. I am experienced in working with victims of trauma, people who have depression, and those with anxiety. My approach to counseling is person-centered, meaning that it is my goal to unconditionally accept you where you are in life before beginning to work with you on what you would like to change. I also use cognitive-behavioral therapy to help you cope with your symptoms and learn new thoughts and behaviors.

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.
