Hi! My name is Jamie and I've been a counselor for about a decade now. I specialize in toxic and abusive relationships. That could be with parents, a romantic partner, or friendships. I’m trained in quite a few therapies (cognitive behavioral therapy or CBT is one of them) but the most important thing is finding something that works for you. You’re an individual, so counseling will be tailored to what your specific needs are-and maybe you don't know what you want/need right now because you've never been to counseling! That's fine, too! The relationship between counselor and individual is key. It’s so important to have a trusting bond so I will spend time getting to know you, as well as help. I believe everyone has the power to promote change within themselves but sometimes we all need a little guidance. What an awesome step you’ve made. I know it took courage! I offer a non-judgmental atmosphere, because we're all people and we all have pasts. A little about me: I practice yoga and Reiki healing. I like spending my days with my partner and our two boys, reading, and crocheting (very therapeutic!). I also enjoy hiking and traveling. I can't wait to get to know more about you and help you where you are in your journey.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. I view counseling as a collaborative relationship in which the client and I work together to explore the current problematic issues and develop goals to address these issues. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, behavioral issues and communication and relationships. I work with children, adults, teens, couples, and families of all backgrounds.

My name is Catherine Job and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas and Alabama. I have a Master’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Business Administration. I work with clients who are experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, grief and loss, relationship issues, and family conflict. I have experience working with LGBTQ+ clients, clients with AIDS/HIV, Veterans and First responders. My approach to therapy is client centered which means that I believe therapy is a collaboration between the client and the therapist. I ask clients to identify what their goals are for therapy. I use cognitive behavioral approaches in sessions to help clients understand how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are all connected. Once a client understands these, they can move towards making changes and living an emotionally healthier and happier life. My clients have described me as very approachable, nonjudgmental and empathetic. I am available to my clients Monday through Friday for either 30- minute or 45-minute video sessions. I will send you the consent forms after you sign up for a session and these can be completed and returned through the portal. I ask my clients to take what they learn in sessions and practice it outside of sessions. My contact with my clients outside of session is primarily for scheduling and the sending of handouts and worksheets. I will respond to client emails within a 24-hour time frame during the week and on Monday for messages left on weekends. I believe in helping my client establish a good work/life balance and practice this myself by using weekends to “re-energize” so I can give 100% to my clients during sessions. In the event of a mental health emergency or crisis situation, clients should call 911 or go to their nearest emergency room. You have taken a courageous first step for your mental health by seeking therapy services and I look forward to working with you.

My name is Noraliz Nagarsheth, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida. I am glad you have decided to reach out for help, and I hope that BetterHelp finds the best fit to meet your unique needs. I have been a social worker since 2012. I have worked as an outpatient mental health therapist, social worker case manager, and home health care social worker before venturing into private practice as a telehealth mental health therapist. I specialize in working with individuals with a history of trauma experiencing symptoms of anxiety & depression. My preferred therapy modalities are Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral, and Solution Focused Therapy. I also received training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and often find it helpful when working with clients. My passion is to help clients find meaning in life and understand life events by searching for awareness and unraveling patterns in their emotions, thoughts, and belief systems, gaining insight into their current selves and what led them to be in the present moment. Once we unraveled the thoughts and identified the limiting beliefs, I like to find and implement strategies and techniques that would challenge those beliefs to promote new behaviors that will empower clients to live fulfilling lives. Although I have my preferences in therapy, I believe that everyone is unique in their way. My goal is to utilize a therapy technique that will best fit your personality and help you accomplish your treatment goals. Let's determine if we are a good fit for each other so we can embark on this journey of self-reflection, empowerment, and behavior modification. If we embark on this journey together, I want you to be confident that if you are going through a tough time of uncertainty in your life, I am here to support you. In addition, I want us to work together to find ways to enhance your life experience and accomplish your goal of feeling better and working on other areas of interest. I aim to create a therapeutic relationship where I will listen and help you process along the journey. I will meet you where you are at all times and when you are ready to work, I will provide you with tips and strategies that we will sort out to figure out which ones will be the most effective for you to implement in your life. It may take a few tries, but I am confident that we will find the one that will help you accomplish your goals and feel empowered. I look forward to working with you.
