More about Easter

  • 20 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

Hello, my name is Easter Spates. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Supervisor with over 20 years of experience providing counseling and supportive services to individuals, families, children and adolescents. I am a graduate of Prairie View A&M University where I received a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and earned my Master’s in Counseling and Guidance. My goal in the therapeutic process is to engage and guide individuals to evoke the specific "change" you need to experience. My focus is to ensure that the counseling experience is ordered and set up for you to feel pleased and invigorated throughout the process.

I see myself as a vehicle for the client’s change. Assisting you to make sense of your experiences and seeing better patterns. I would describe my therapeutic style as warm and engaging. I consider myself as leveled headed, balanced, and non-judgmental.

I do understand that making the decision to seek counseling can be overwhelming but by doing so you have begun the journey. Know that I am here to be a guiding light with you through each step of the way.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Wonderful therapist. She has helped me so much and I would highly recommend Easter as a therapist

Reviewed May 2023

I have been genuinely and consistently surprised by her knowledge, expertise, and engagement throughout my therapy so far. I wasn’t sure how effective it would be since I’m doing it online, and have never really believed that therapy could be very helpful in general, but I was completely wrong. Even in the short period of time that I’ve been undergoing therapy with Easter Spates, she has helped me identify and begin to overcome a number of lifelong issues that I was never able to understand on my own. She provides a lot of clear and direct support and a really comfortable environment that makes it easy to open up, which has also been helpful to me. My thoughts about therapy have changed significantly during the short time that she’s been helping me, and I will recommend she and BetterHelp to others whenever the opportunity presents itself.

Beginning in this stage of therapy I’m thankful that I was connected to Easter. She is easy to talk to and I don’t feel pressured into talking about uncomfortable situation until I’m ready. That’s exactly what I needed.
