Is my internet good enough for video sessions?

Most connections that can handle a video call will work. If your signal is spotty in a rural area, sitting near the router or using a phone with good reception can help. A quick video call with a friend beforehand is an easy way to test your setup.

I live in a small town outside Lubbock. Can I still work with you?

Yes. Anyone physically located in Texas can work with me by secure video. The size of your town does not matter, only that you have a private space and a steady connection during sessions.

Can Texas Tech students from out of state work with you?

Yes, while you are in Texas. If you go home to another state for a break, sessions pause until you return. Planning ahead around the academic calendar keeps that from becoming a surprise.

Online Therapy for Lubbock

Lubbock sits on the wide-open South Plains, a long way down the highway from the next big city. Online counseling means no drive at all, for people in Lubbock and in the small towns around it.

Wide Open Spaces, Long Drives

If you live on the South Plains, you think about distance differently. In the small towns around Lubbock, a counselor might be a long drive away, and even in town, an appointment can mean rearranging a whole afternoon. That kind of distance turns getting help into a project, and projects get postponed.

Telehealth changes that. Anyone physically in Texas can meet with me by secure video, whether you are in Lubbock itself or out in a town where everyone knows your truck.

Students at Texas Tech and LCU

For students at Texas Tech, Lubbock Christian University or South Plains College, college life can be exciting and overwhelming at once: big lectures, Saturdays at Jones AT&T Stadium, new freedom and new pressure. If you came from a small town, the jump can feel even bigger.

Video sessions can slot in between lectures and shifts, joined from your residence hall or your car. My page on therapy for college students covers how that works, including what happens over breaks.

Working Out What You Believe

If you are a student sorting out what you believe, or a family whose faith is woven through everyday life, those questions can come into counseling too. Christian counseling is available when you ask for it. My page on Christian counseling for teens and young adults speaks to doubt, calling and faith on campus. If you would rather leave faith out, it stays out completely.

Out here, help has always meant a long drive. It does not have to anymore.

Farm and Ranch Families

The South Plains is cotton country, and farm and ranch work comes with its own pressures: weather you cannot control, markets that swing, long days and the weight of a family operation. If you do this work, you may be used to handling everything yourself, which can make asking for help feel unfamiliar.

Counseling can be a practical, private place to sort out the stress, without anyone at the co-op or the coffee shop knowing you went. Sessions happen from your own home or truck.

A Regional Medical Hub

Lubbock's hospitals and the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center serve a huge stretch of West Texas and eastern New Mexico. That means long shifts for the people who work there, and long drives for families who come into town for care.

If you work in health care, the stress of caring for others all day can leave little room to take care of yourself. If you are supporting a loved one through treatment, caregiver strain is real. Either way, a fifty-minute video session from home can be easier to fit in than one more trip across town.

Starting From the South Plains

We can work on depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, relationships, grief, life changes and burnout. My approach is practical: cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused steps and honest feedback.

There is no office to drive to in Lubbock or anywhere else. All you need is a private space and a steady connection while you are in Texas. See online therapy anywhere in Texas for the statewide details, or El Paso for another West Texas page.
