More about Evette

  • 6 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I believe that seeking therapy is an important step toward understanding yourself, navigating life’s challenges, and creating meaningful change. My goal is to provide a supportive, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, respected, and empowered.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in both California and Texas, with experience working with individuals facing a wide range of mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, mood disorders, emotional dysregulation, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and complex psychiatric conditions.

My professional background includes working with individuals experiencing significant emotional distress and complex mental health needs. These experiences have strengthened my ability to approach each person with empathy, patience, and an understanding that healing is not always a linear process.

My therapeutic approach is collaborative, person-centered, and tailored to your individual needs. I believe in helping clients identify patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, strengthen emotional awareness, and build the confidence needed to make positive changes.

Whether you are navigating a difficult transition, struggling with relationships, managing mental health symptoms, or simply seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I am committed to meeting you where you are and supporting you as you move forward.

You do not have to have everything figured out before beginning therapy. Sometimes, the first step is simply having a safe space to talk.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
