INTERNET ADDICTION IS TREATABLE!
THERE IS HOPE FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY
I PROVIDE TELETHERAPY IN TEXAS FOR CHILDREN, ADOLESCENTS, AND ADULTS
THERAPY CAN HELP TRANSFORM YOUR FAMILY’S FUTURE!
Electronics addiction is the fastest and one of the most damaging addictions, due to the ease of access and lack of stigma. It is common for most people to spend 8+ hours a day online. The question is, how much is too much? Do you spend most of your free time online, to the extent you neglect work, school, or spending time with friends and family? Have you lost a job, or a relationship, due to spending too much time online? Have you tried to cut back, but failed? If so, you may have an addiction to electronics, which you need to take seriously. Electronics addiction is widespread and is challenging to manage, as it can affect children, teens, and even adults. If this sounds like you or your family, therapy can help you manage this addiction and improve your life.
MY TREATMENT APPROACH
As a therapist and former Internet Addict, I help the Client and confront the addiction and find alternatives for it. I begin by forming a therapeutic alliance between me and the Client while working to improve communication skills. I then work to find what the Client gains from the addiction and work to find alternatives. I also work on any other problems that also may be present, such as Anxiety, Depression, or Autism. I have over 15 years of experience treating Internet Addiction and have assisted hospitals, treatment centers, and even the FBI. Below is a list of what I work with during therapy:
Addiction Assessment
Determine the Needs of the Addiction
Building a Electronics Usage Contract
Build Healthy Routines
Anger Management
Improve Sleep
Career Concerns + Indepedence
Teach Healthy Coping Skills
Manage Stress & Anxiety
Social Skills Training
Improve Communication Skills

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How Does Therapy Work?
A therapy session lasts 45 minutes, where you work on goals set during previous sessions. During this time, I may teach specific skills or discuss problems that have occurred recently. While working with children, I will talk to the parent alone at the beginning or end of the session and speak to the child individually. Therapy sessions are highly flexible and can be what you determine is needed.
How Long Does Therapy Last?
That depends on you, as therapy is individualized. It depends on the problems you are experiencing and how long you wish to see the therapist. However, therapy often lasts months to treat Internet addiction, as this is a severe addiction. It is common for me to see Clients for six months or longer. However, depending on your need, I provide sessions weekly, twice a month, or monthly.
How Much Does Therapy Cost?
Therapy is an investment and does not come cheap. Due to my over 14 years of experience, I charge $200.00 a session. I have treated hundreds of people for Internet Addiction and know from personal experience how damaging this addiction can be. I provide a Sliding Scale upon request based on household income. While the cost is high, therapy can be life-changing for you and your family.
Do You Provide In-Person Sessions?
No, I provide teletherapy sessions only for residents of Texas.
Is Teletherapy Secure?
Yes. The program I use for Teletherapy encrypts the connection between me and the Client, ensuring no one can spy on the session. It is HIPAA Compliant and requires no software download for the Client. It also works on Tablets, Smartphones, and Computers. Unlike most therapists who use Skype, I take your privacy and confidentiality seriously.
What Is Your Therapeutic Style? You Don’t Just Sit and Take Notes All Session, Do You?
No! Many therapists have the bad habit of taking notes all session and asking questions, such as, “How does that make you feel?”. In my sessions, I focus on creating a calm environment where we work to solve problems. I am goal-oriented and work to teach skills. I am hands-on, direct, but compassionate.
