HELLO! My name is Juan Ortiz and I am a licensed professional counselor. As we all know too well, life can be completely unpredictable! I say control the controllables and by that I mean your well-being and mental health. At times you just want to be heard and that is exactly what I provide. I am along for the ride, but keep in mind you are in the driver's seat and ultimately only you can pick your final destination. I truly believe in the power of the 'here and now' and believe that you can consciously make efforts to reach happiness, whatever that happiness may look like for you.
I have been a counselor for a little over 3 years now. My experience varies from community mental health agencies, psychiatric hospitals, and private practice working with families, couples, and adults. I have worked with individuals experiencing: depression, anxiety, stress management, trauma, relationship issues, and gender identity. I meet you where you are in your life at present time. Together, we identify what you want to change in your life and work on your conscious mind to condition new positive, capable thoughts followed by purposeful decisions to achieve the change you desire.
My therapeutic style and approach are influenced by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Reality Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness. My promise: to hear you, take your needs into account, and navigate with you through this thing we call life! My strength lies in helping you find your voice when you are at that pivotal point and are ready for a breakthrough. You deserve to live life on your terms!

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.

Juan is a great listener, picking up on things I couldn't see even though they are right in front of me. He asks great questions and has helped me reframe many things through his easy-going approach. He always created a safe space to talk about even the most personal topics. His support has been hugely valuable.
Juan is great!!! He really helps me better understand and talk through my issues
Juan has been an amazing help for me. Even after the first couple sessions I really felt like I had started to get a grasp of some of my problems that I haven’t even thought about. Within two short months I’ve made a lot of progress with his help. He really seems to care and can relate to my issues so he doesn’t feel cold or clinical at all.
