There are times in life where you may feel lost and struggle to understand, change, or accept life and the circumstances that surround you. Sometimes you need someone in your corner when times are tough where it seems like there is no way out of a negative situation. My passion is to be in your corner and help support you in your time of need through psychotherapy.
My therapeutic approach focuses on a client- center approach such as Cognitive behavior Therapy (CBT) and Reality therapy. I want to encourage you to focus on your mental health and life issues such as depression, anxiety, past trauma, loss of a loved one, relationship issues, or any other life change you may be going through.
I Believe that your mind is a powerful tool that can affect your emotions which then can change your behaviors. My goal is to help guide you to focus on your negative thought processes and overcome them together for a positive outcome. I aim to help you understand how to focus on your needs, set goals, problem solve, and create more meaningful connections with others.

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.

She is absolutely wonderful! I have enjoyed working with her very much and feel that I am making progress! After each session, a weight has been lifted from my shoulders
Larissa is a wonderfully supportive therapist! She is amazingly gentle, while still holding you accountable for taking care of your mental health.
I absolutely love my therapist! She is super understanding and supportive.
Larissa is great at what she does. It’s nice having an unbiased ear to vent to
Ms. Dovalina has already been a huge help that I appreciate as more and more things change in my life. I would prefer quicker response times when the messages are more important than just a normal reply but I also understand she is a busy person so for what she does, she does it great.
