Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Welcome to BetterHelp . I commend you in reaching out to our platform for assistance. We are established professional counselors working with people with a variety of issues. Our mission is to make counseling affordable , accessible, and convenient. My name is John A. Llauget. I hold a Masters degree in Clinical Psychology from Stephen F. Austin State University and a Educational Specialist degree from University of South Florida. I also am licensed as Mental Health Counselor in Florida and licensed as Licensed Professional Counselor in Alabama. My career in mental health began in 1977 working in a psychiatric hospital ; and later as outpatient therapist in a community health center working with children, adolescents, families, and adults. I also worked as an employee assistance counselor (EAP), school counselor, associate professor at international university, and court evaluator for guardianship cases. For the last 20 years , I worked as cancer counselor with population of oncology clients helping them cope with illness, stress, and emotional issues. I’ve maintained an interest in martial arts, using traditional Okinawan karate to help clients develop self esteem and self control. Later as I worked with the elderly, I taught Qigong ( body/mind exercise ) and meditation classes to improve the health of my clients. My therapeutic style centers around getting to know a person better and talk more explicitly about issues before making any therapeutic recommendations. I also am a strong advocate for teaching ‘ tools’ for coping with stress and emotional difficulties. I’ve also gained training in trauma treatment because we know now that it is prevalent in our life experiences. I value compassion, persistence, and patience in working towards change. Please call or text if you have any questions. I check my messages twice daily; once in am and once in pm. But I am unavailable on Sundays. I look forward to working with you. Research suggests that you will know if you are with the ‘right’ counselor after two sessions. I value your time and want to use it productively.
Sincerely, John

Many people want to know whether meeting with a therapist remotely can really help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, research has shown that virtual therapy is comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person care.
One major benefit is flexibility – clients can choose the format that fits their routine and comfort level, whether that means video sessions, phone conversations, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options can make it easier to keep appointments and maintain continuity of care.
Licensed professionals provide online therapy, and clients may switch therapists at any time if they want a different fit. For many people seeking support with everyday mental health challenges, online therapy can be a practical and effective way to access professional help.
