My journey of over 25 years as a mentor, counselor, and coach—alongside personal roles as a military spouse and mother—have deeply informed my understanding of you who have forgetten to have empathy for yourself.
End of school year obligations are over, phew! Before summer activities fill up your spare time, book some therapy time to focus on you. Taking responsibility for everyone else’s stuff has left you depleted. Sometimes you don’t even want to leave the house because the empathy you feel for other people makes you feel so tired and overwhelmed. In our demanding world, it is easy to extend your caregiving and empathy so far and freely that you lose sight of your needs. A skillful, compassionate therapist can help you cultivate a healthier approach to empathy by helping you to establish balanced emotional and physical boundaries.

I value the relationship you and I have as therapist and client.
If you’re navigating a difficult chapter of life, the idea of going to therapy might feel both promising and daunting. I want you to know that you don’t have to have it “all together” when you show up here. Maybe you’re in the middle of a big life change such as a divorce or breakup, grief, or transitioning to college and find yourself stressing about the unknown and wondering what’s next. You might be noticing the way that experiences from your past are impacting your life or relationships in the present. Or, you might not even know how to describe what’s brought you here. You just know you need some support.

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.
