More about Larisa

  • 10 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC



I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with an extensive background in psychological counseling, specializing in crisis intervention, anger management, family systems, parent coaching, tween and teen issues, and relationship challenges, including those involving narcissistic individuals. My work centers on supporting individuals through life transitions while guiding them on their journey of self-healing and self-discovery.

I help clients learn to assert healthy boundaries, build resilience, and foster stronger relationships with themselves and others. My therapeutic approach is integrative, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, motivational therapy, and choice theory.

I create a supportive, compassionate, and goal-focused environment to empower clients to navigate challenges, gain clarity, and move toward meaningful change.

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.
