Professional Counseling Anywhere in Washington State

While New Direction Counseling is physically located in the heart of Vancouver, Washington, distance counseling allows us to bridge the gap for clients across the region. We understand that busy schedules, mobility challenges, or the need for a specific clinical approach—like Christ-centered therapy or EMDR—can make in-person visits difficult. By utilizing secure, HIPAA-compliant technology, we bring high-quality mental health support directly to you, ensuring that location is never a barrier to your well-being.

Why Choose New Direction for Remote Counseling?

Choosing a remote therapist is a significant decision. At New Direction Counseling, we combine academic excellence with a faith-based perspective to provide a unique therapeutic experience.

  • Clinical Expertise: Ronda Gallawa-Foyt holds a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from Lewis and Clark College and over 25 years of experience in the field.
  • Christ-Centered Approach: We offer a specialized biblical counseling perspective for those seeking to integrate their faith into their healing journey.
  • Specialized Trauma Care: We are equipped to provide online EMDR therapy, a proven method for processing major trauma and PTSD remotely.

Local Familiarity: Unlike massive national platforms, we are a local Vancouver practice. We understand the community, regional stressors, and local resources.

Our Distance Counseling Services

We provide a comprehensive range of virtual therapeutic interventions tailored to your specific needs:

Individual Counseling Online
