About me

Hello, thank you for considering me to assist you in whatever journey life has brought you. Yes, a journey. Challenges are experiences that get us to the next stage of our personal development. However we should never feel like we have to go there alone.

I completed the Master's in Social Work program with a minor in Alcohol and Other Drugs. Within about two years of graduating, I became clinically licensed in New Mexico and the next year in Texas. I have 15 years of experience in individual, marital, family, and group therapy. Much of my work time has been with military personnel and their families. This clinical experience exposed me to working with many people from all over the world and with a variety of cultural backgrounds. Approaches in treatment are a combination of strengths-based, cognitive behavioral therapy, relationship dynamic approaches, motivational interviewing, solution focused therapy, addiction issues, and more. Applying a variety of approaches in treatment are necessary because no therapy is suitable for how dynamic we are as human beings.
I apply a holistic approach with cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and person in environment approaches.

The goal of treatment is to show clients they had the skills and internal resources to meet their personal goals. It is just at times we need to do it in a non-judgmental environment.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Ona Ramsey. 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.

I've had the pleasure of receiving therapy services from Ona Ramsey, and I can confidently say that it's an extremely beneficial and enlightening experience. Before the first session, Ona created a calm and welcoming environment that allowed me to open up and express myself freely.

Ona is a highly experienced and knowledgeable therapist who truly cares about helping her clients overcome their challenges and achieve their goals. She listens actively, offers insightful feedback, and provides practical strategies that are tailored to each individual's unique needs and circumstances.

Under Ona's guidance, I am gaining a deeper understanding of myself and the issues holding me back. She's teaching me valuable tools and techniques that will allow me to manage my emotions and communicate more effectively with others. Most importantly, she's helping me develop a more positive and confident outlook.

Overall, I highly recommend Ona Ramsey to anyone seeking therapy services. She is a compassionate and skilled therapist with a real gift for helping people transform their lives. Thank you, Ona, for your invaluable support and guidance!
