About Me
I provide psychotherapy for individuals (children, adolescents, and adults.), working from a client-centered perspective that is integrative, collaborative, and recovery-based (i.e., incorporates client's strengths as opposed to solely focusing on negatives or pathology). This provides a safe space for clients to feel heard, understood, and respected. I am also an expert in working with gay, lesbian, bisexual, and same sex attracted clients, and the unique psychological issues present in the community.
I have been in practice since 2008 and I have worked with individuals in ages ranging from 5 to 85 years old. I have a credential in School Counseling K-12 and have worked in schools and non-profit agencies. I support clients in building positive communication, fostering meaningful relationships, practicing appropriate social skills, utilizing healthy coping strategies, and to establish and maintain healthy boundaries within a culturally sensitive approach in order to generate lasting interpersonal change.
I treat everyone with respect and warmth. I work to ensure that our sessions will be tailored to your needs and goals. I’m available for online therapy sessions with individuals anywhere in the state of California. I graduated from Saint Mary's College of California. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, #8570 in the State of California.

Reviews
JP has been a huge force in helping me understand myself and my issues better. I started therapy a half a year ago and ever since I swapped therapist to JP I feel like I have been making progress.
Not only does he understand me but he also puts everything in a way that I can understand myself. Overall he is also a really funny and empathetic guy where it's very easy to just share all your thoughts and feelings.
I can recommend JP if you are looking for someone who will actually care about making your life a better place.
I am grateful to find a good counselor that listens to me, and offers healthy suggestions.
First therapist I’ve found in YEARS who makes me feel heard, and respected as a fellow human being. 22 years of therapy and I finally found one who I work well with. I would recommend him to anyone for sure XD
Jean has been very helpful. Great listener and very willing to help me decide if I'd be a good betterhelp counselor. I have my LPCC like Jean and he was able to share his own experience working as an online therapist both for BetterHelp and other organizations. I'd highly recommend him to others and would certainly consider reaching out to him again if I had another need for my own personal counseling.
It’s good to be listened and talked to by him.
Jean has been an amazing help, quickly recognizing my challenges. I feel I have made great progress, as his guidance has provided me with the clarity I was missing.
Jean De Oliveira , has helped me quite a lot in learning to set proper boundaries and have the confidence to enforce them. I would recommend him to anyone struggling with family , friends, work colleagues.
Jean De Oliveira has been a rock that grounds me in a really troubling time. He is attentive, honest and helpful. I would recommend his counsel to anyone struggling.
