Hello there! I am licensed in California with 15 years of professional work experience with teens, adults and couples. I have experience in helping clients with stress, life transitions, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. My therapeutic approach is built on trust within the relationship we create along with a little humor. I mostly utilize the modalities of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with family systems, communication skills work, and mindfulness practices. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for John Aaron Foster. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
John has helped me to find that the antidote to anxiety is not to overthink and analyze myself out of it, but rather to remove myself from my mind and thoughts and engage in the present using my senses - enjoying the beauty of the world and those I love around me - in order to relax and enter the flow of my life.
