More about Theofanis
- 3 years' experience
- Male
- LMHC
As a licensed therapist in Rhode Island, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My clinical focus centers on addressing depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and life transitions. I offer compassionate guidance for those experiencing social isolation, exploring life purpose, managing social anxiety, and working through feelings of guilt and shame.
My approach is deeply empathetic and tailored to each individual's unique journey. I understand the nuanced challenges faced by the LGBTQ+ community and provide a welcoming, affirming therapeutic space. Through evidence-based practices, I help clients develop resilient coping strategies and cultivate meaningful personal growth.
I am committed to walking alongside you as you explore your inner world, build emotional strength, and create pathways toward healing and self-understanding. Together, we can work to transform challenges into opportunities for personal transformation and renewed hope.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
