I am a licensed clinical psychologist with more than 11 years of professional work experience, including 8 years treating military service members and first responders.
I have experience in helping clients with trauma and abuse, depression, bi-polar disorder, LGBTQ, gender dysphoria, and relationship issues. I am also available to assist you with your motivational, self-esteem, and confidence concerns.
I approach therapy from a holistic perspective and strive to provide you with a caring, supportive therapy program.
I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. My goal is to be here to support and empower you in that journey.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. John Williams. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Dr. Williams is a very supportive therapist. He listens, communicates, provides resources I can use when my schedule gets busy as a Petty Officer in the Navy, and this helps me grow mentally and emotionally and physically, which has been an intention and purpose of mine for the past 5 years when I decided to put myself and health first.
I will definitely recommend Dr. Williams.

This is my first time on BetterHelp. Dr Williams is kind and caring. He listens and provides feedback to text messages in a timely manner. He has helped me through a tough time in my life, and I am grateful for him.

Oddly enough I've had therapists that seemed biased from the very beginning. My sessions currently don't make me feel that way.
