Are you just getting by, saying "I'm okay" when asked how you are? It's okay to be okay, but there's so much more to well-being. Do you wake up excited for the day ahead? Are you moving towards your goals? Are you confident in your next steps or at least curious about your options? Are you organized and prepared for what's coming? If these things don't ring true for you, let me help you be the best version of yourself: focused, connected, thoughtful, and thriving.

Somehow, you’ve taken on more than your fair share again. How does this always seem to happen? It’s like they don’t notice- or care. It would be really nice to feel appreciated for a change, but you can’t remember the last time you even got so much as a thank you. Maybe things would be different if you could just communicate better… but how? Last time you tried that it turned into an argument and you walked away feeling frustrated, guilty and selfish for even saying anything. After all, aren’t you just being overly sensitive? “Just get over it”, you tell yourself for the hundredth time…

I specialize in helping individuals & couples cope with anxiety, relationship disconnection, self worth issues, people pleasing behaviors, &/or unresolved past pain. A common reason individuals come to me is because they want help being more authentic or addressing something unresolved from their past. Maybe your story is one of being caught between 2 worlds - what the world or family wants from you and who you want to be? Possibly you are used to supporting others and want someone who will listen to you for a change? Or this strategy of pushing aside issues from your past is leaving you exhausted and breaking down at times.

It can cause difficulties in relationships, friendships, and work. It can cause us to feel disconnected and unable to enjoy the positive moments in life.

Online Therapists

Is online therapy as effective as in-person?

Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?

One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialized therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.

Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?

Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.

Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?

The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
