More about Dolores
- 20 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
I have worked for 20+ years in the field of counseling. My experience is mainly focused on substance abuse issues, related trauma, and the mental health problems that often co-exist. I am a holistic provider, which means that I see the person wholly, mind, body, spirit, and seek to help clients experience themselves wholly. Problems do not occur in a vacuum. Without this holistic perspective, it is easy to focus on one thing, but neglect the core issue driving that "one thing." My approach is one of "partnering" with the client. Not leading, not following, but walking with you as you rediscover your true self, and then seek to find internal balance which leads to a more productive and fulfilled lifestyle. I consider it a great privilege when someone trusts me enough to share at the level necessary to effect life changes, and I believe that confidentiality is the bedrock of therapy.

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.

Dolores is the best. Truly. Direct, honest and pragmatic.
I love the messages of what we talked about in our session. I get help from going back and referring to them. Dolores helps me stay focused on what I need at this time in my life as well
She’s been my therapist for I believe two years now. She helped me get through my toughest times. I appreciate her patience and insight very much. I love her book recommendations as well :)
DJ is awesome therapist. She has helped me tremendously and I enjoy our sessions.
Dolores has been a great counselor. It was hard for me to accept that telehealth was my best option for getting immediate access to mental health but she has made it east to talk to and challenges my thoughts and helps me to advocate for myself.
Dolores is very insightful and listens thoughtfully to my concerns. I like how she gives me suggestions I can implement immediately to improve my life.
she's been amazing on all levels helping me with the hardest thing I've ever done
Dolores is really an amazing listener and her feedback and thoughtfulness are always spot on. I appreciate so much how much she's helped me.
Very helpful to be able to talk to someone about my frustration fears and depression. DJ has helped me focus on what is right now and not so much on things that I really can’t change.
She does a fantastic job and I am happy with her services!
DJ is patient, thoughtful, and professional in her approach to finding the root issues I’ve been struggling with. I’m able to be vulnerable with her without feeling judgement which has been key so far. Looking forward to what our future sessions hold.
I really love and appreciate my therapist. She’s a wonderful person and though I do not check in as much as I need to, she finds the time to check in with me to make sure I am not alone in this.
Dolores offers different perspectives and keeps teaching or showing me that the world is vast. Also, she would recognize problems I didn't know existed. I love that she would also offer multiple approaches to a problem.
Working with DJ has helped me so much. I can’t say enough good things.
DJ is a great and wonderful therapist. I'm so grateful that BetterHelp matched us. She listens intently, and gives great and practical advices. She'd always check in and shows genuine care and concern. Thank you for everything, DJ!
As always, she’s very sweet and thoughtful. I’ve been practicing her recommendations and it has brought such joy and fruitfulness in my life.
I have been working with DJ over the last 7 months, and can say she has done a brilliant job at helping me work through mental struggles over this time, and guiding me on coping with external pressures that previously led to situational depression. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced, friendly, knowledgeable and nurturing therapist!
I love how fast she responds to me. She also shows that she cares about me as a friend, person, and client. She’s very flexible and I appreciate that.
She’s wonderful
Very helpful and kind.
My sessions with DJ have been so helpful. I feel cared about and she has given me wonderful advice to help me work through some tough times. This has app has been extremely valuable to me because it connected me to a therapist who has experience and gives me tools to better myself. I very much appreciate DJ, the time she puts into our sessions. She is extremely thoughtful and caring, it really shows in her work. I never feel judged and I feel safe talking to her. Thank you for everything DJ!
She’s amazing! I usually tend to not be open alot or talk about my feelings and she really makes me feel so comfortable and has helped me open up and get the therapy i need. Im truly grateful for her!
