About June
June OConnor is a licensed counselor with more than 25 years of experience. She speaks plainly about the hard feelings people bring to therapy and draws on life experience as well as clinical work. June emphasizes practical change and patience while guiding people through difficult moments.
She began her counseling career after returning to school later in life. That background shaped a down-to-earth style and a belief that many behaviors started with a good intention.
Background and approach
She listens first, then offers ideas that fit a person's values and goals. Her approach is collaborative and steady. June may gently challenge a client when that will help, and she adapts techniques to match comfort levels.
Clients can expect explanations of why certain habits persist and hands-on suggestions for small changes. June uses a mix of approaches including client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, emotionally-focused ideas, and EMDR when appropriate. She focuses on everyday concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, sleep problems, parenting, relationship issues, addictions, and coping with life changes.
Based in Arizona and licensed there as an LPC and also holding an LCPC, she works with adults who want practical skills and honest conversation. Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different needs and schedules.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
June often blends client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral approaches. Client-centered work means the conversation centers on a person's experience and values, helping them feel heard and understood. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to improve daily functioning.She also uses emotionally-focused ideas to help people notice and process feelings more clearly. That work supports stronger emotional awareness and can reduce reactivity in relationships and parenting challenges. Together these approaches offer both insight and practical steps to change patterns that no longer serve a person.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and offer options that fit the situation. Clients and the therapist check in over time and adjust methods as progress and needs evolve.
Online therapy makes these approaches accessible through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversation and exercises that benefit from seeing facial cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let someone share thoughts in the moment or follow up between sessions. These formats offer flexibility to fit therapy into a busy life while pursuing steady therapeutic work.
