Ascend into your real potential

Take the first step on your journey of self discovery and personalized care

Our Services

Perhaps you are going through a lot right now. The situation(s) are complicated and you just want to make some sense of it all. Maybe you know what you need to do, but some support can help. Our work together can be aimed at whatever we think is going to help get you to the next step or phase of wellness. If you want to feel better, you have already taken a great first step.

Treatment is going to be designed to set you up for success.
You will be educated and equipped firstly with coping skills in place. While competency builds in them, focused sessions will center around presenting issues. A specific and structured treatment plan will be created with your help to help you see symptom reduction and maintained success thereafter.

Individual Therapy Services

We offer both virtual and in office meeting space for your comfort and convenience. Ages served can range from as young as 4 and above.

Couples Counseling

We offer therapy services directed at relationship dynamics between you and your partner. We get it... sometimes, things get complicated and lost in translation over time. Things didn't start out this way, but it doesn't mean it has to stay this way. These services are also offered virtually or in person at your comfort and convenience.

EAP Services

Betancourt Counseling LLC recognizes that mental health services tend to be one of the most underutilized benefits available to employees. These allow you to access therapy for a finite amount of therapy sessions completely free to you as an employee. There are several contracts in place with various companies. Feel empowered to speak to your HR company and determine if you are entitled to receive free counseling services and mention our company to learn if we are in network with what your work place offers. Active contracts include Spring Health, Lyra, Workplace Options, Curalinc, Aetna EAP, Life Solutions (UPMC insurance holders); and Optum.

Counselor, MSCP, LAPC

I enjoy working with individuals from all walks of life. My focus is to build a relationship before anything else. I provide a non-judgmental environment filled with compassion for individuals to grow into their authentic selves. There can be many barriers for us to reach the healing we have been seeking, both past and present. Some of these barriers can include current stressful situations you may be currently enduring or past unresolved trauma. Let us walk together through your healing journey, you no longer have to walk alone. You have already made the first step toward a brighter future by seeking support. My specialties include Christian counseling, grief/loss, general mental health, drug and alcohol, family therapy/dynamics, and complex trauma. Millions of people face the struggles of a mental health issue(s) from stressful events yearly. Whether this is a new experience for you, or you have been struggling with this for a while, I invite you into making this first step toward a new beginning together.

Counselor, MSCP, LAPC (she, her)

I offer a safe, supportive, and peaceful environment that fosters open dialogue, psychoeducation, and personal exploration. My therapeutic approach is eclectic, drawing from a variety of evidence-based modalities to best meet each client’s unique needs. I view healing as a collaborative journey, working alongside clients to support meaningful growth and lasting change. My approach incorporates techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, Sexual Health Counseling, Person-Centered Therapy, Feminist Therapy, Couples Counseling, and Postmodern and Eclectic frameworks. I provide accessible, low-cost therapy services tailored to both insured and uninsured clients. I work virtually with adults, couples, support groups, and individuals who are seeking personal development. My experience includes treating anxiety disorders, mood and depressive disorders, sexual health concerns, relationship issues, and interpersonal issues. About Me: I am a first-generation Mexican-American, fully bilingual in Spanish and English, and deeply committed to supporting diverse communities through accessible, culturally informed mental health care. As an INFJ-A (according to the MBTI), I’m naturally intuitive, empathetic, and purpose-driven — traits that guide my work as a therapist.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, MSW, LCSW

As a therapist, I consider myself a guide who's purpose is to provide a nonjudgmental, listening ear, help broaden my client's perspective, and assist them with seeing their potential for growth. We would work collaboratively to help you get to the next step towards your goals. We will process difficult feelings, find power from experiences, heal from traumatic events, evaluate relationships and their impact, or make changes in your life. There are times in life where we feel powerless, and here we can help you rediscover yours as well as increase the power you have over your own life. My specialties are in Depression and Anxiety, general mental health, suicidal thoughts, and Faith based counseling. I offer therapy in Spanish as well.
