Consider this - You are not required to set yourself on fire to keep other people warm. Have you been keeping others warm for far too long at the expense of yourself? Is it finally time to put YOU first? Whether you are struggling with things that have happened in your past, seek to have more fulfilling and lasting relationships, or simply just want to feel better than you did yesterday, I would be honored to walk beside you. I like to think of going to therapy as a scheduled time in your week to invest in yourself – it doesn’t mean that something is wrong with you. Rather, coming to therapy means something is RIGHT with you.

Are you struggling with intense emotions or past trauma that affects your ability to enjoy life and have meaningful connections? Do you feel alone and misunderstood by those around you? Do you wonder if the emptiness you feel could change into a life that feels worth living? Now more than ever people are feeling disconnected and uncertain about how to find their place in life or move beyond the hurts they have experienced. Anxiety and depression don’t have to be your constant companions. It shouldn’t be so hard to live your best life. I believe there is hope.

Imagine the moment when you are able to make that decision that you no longer needed therapy. The moment where all those anxieties or depressed states were no longer powerful enough to ruin your day. Ask yourself this, what would be the story that would need to take place between then and now that would allow you to have the confidence to fire your therapist (In a good way)? Would the story need to be of one letting go of a demoralizing addiction? Or, about finding the courage to confront your childhood traumas? Maybe, it would need to be a story about overcoming your fears reinforcing your anxiety or depression?

I believe all people have the internal strength to process and work through their struggles. The body knows what to do when we are hurt both physically and with our emotions, but it can be hard to understand. I work to help clients understand our pain and learn to process it into moving forward. I work from a DBT perspective. I have worked with teens, adults and couples of many different cultures and helped them to reach their goals in community and private practice settings. My passion is to help you learn to build the tomorrow you envisioned. Whether those goals be personal, professional, or familial.

Hello - my name is Trey Manor. I help couples and individuals understand and express themselves and their experiences. Our culture doesn't really teach us how to verbalize what we want, need, or fear. Often times, we seek out ways to avoid or numb out those difficult, painful, confusing, or overwhelming emotions and memories. I get to help couples, individuals, military and first responders figure out and verbalize their inner turmoil. I work with individuals seeking to understand and express their emotions or recover from traumatic event(s). I also specialize in couples who are seeking greater communication and connection skills.

Anxiety and worry have become overwhelming, while depression drains the energy and joy from your days. It feels like you’re caught in a relentless storm where every attempt to escape just pulls you deeper. “Is this really all there is?” It’s exhausting trying to keep up appearances, especially when no one seems to understand your struggle. Relationships suffer, and emotions become uncontrollable—anger and tears take over, sleep is restless, and negativity feels relentless and all-consuming. Nothing you’ve tried has helped and nothing is working out. It’s frightening, leaving you feeling helpless and alone.

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.
