About
Orion Block is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who practices in both Rhode Island and Nevada and brings eight years of clinical therapy experience alongside more than 15 years of community organizing and public education work. His background includes an intersectional focus on race, women’s issues, and LGBTQIA+ topics, which informs his approach to clinical practice.
He works from a client-centered perspective, viewing each person as the expert on their own life and supporting clients toward greater independence. Orion emphasizes respect, sensitivity, compassion, and honesty, and he draws on clients’ existing strengths, values, and abilities to guide the work and promote self-directed healing.
Orion sees a wide range of concerns in therapy, including PTSD and trauma, anxiety, borderline issues, disability-related challenges, depression, abandonment, suicidality, self-harm, hoarding, and family conflicts. He also specializes in gender and sexuality, working with transgender and gender non-conforming folx as well as people navigating questions of sexual identity and relationship configurations, including asexuality, kink, and polyamory.
He enjoys collaborating with individuals across diverse identities and life circumstances and understands that people seek therapy for their own reasons. Orion looks forward to working with those who are ready to explore change and healing.

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?
Many people wonder whether meeting with a therapist online truly helps. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, research has shown that online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person sessions for many individuals.
One major benefit of online therapy is flexibility. Clients can choose the format that best fits their comfort and schedule - video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging - which can make it easier to maintain consistent care amid busy lives.
Sessions are provided by licensed professionals and, if a client feels a different match would be better, it is usually possible to switch therapists. For many people, the combination of demonstrated effectiveness and adaptable options makes online therapy a practical way to pursue mental health support.
