Therapy is the process of moving closer to yourself, of building and strengthening your role as your own healer. It is a collaborative process rooted in a trusting, supportive relationship that involves play and celebration as much as it involves discomfort and struggle. I work from a trauma informed, sex positive, and LGBTQ+ affirmative perspective to support the development of a sense of safety in sessions. I am in a frequent state of growth in confronting my own internalized racism and dismantling structures of oppression. My approach is informed by Spiritual Psychology, IFS, and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy.

Do you feel there’s something more for you in the world, but don’t know what it is or how to get to it?

My mission as a therapist is to build an authentic, trusting relationship where you’ll feel safe to explore who you are and what you want.

You’d been doing so good. Enjoying life, being productive, connecting with family and friends. Then, out of nowhere, it crept back in—that familiar feeling of emptiness. You can feel your worldview narrowing and your emotions shutting down, and it scares you. You’ve worked so hard to move past this. Eating well, exercising, meditating, and sleeping more. And then here comes this reminder that all the self-care in the world isn’t quite enough to help you move past this disconnection. Hopelessness is setting in.

You're a highly sensitive person who cares for everyone around you. You have a narcissistic parent and it has been challenging to navigate their expectations. You find yourself giving more time to them while feeling drained by their emotional ups and downs. Sometimes your efforts to support them go unrecognized and you feel taken for granted. But if you ever set a boundary, you are accused of being selfish. They have a hard time seeing your point of view so you leave confrontations feeling guilty. Sometimes you're even worried that you're crazy. You end up binging Dr. Ramani YouTube videos to try to make sense of your relationship.

It feels like you and your partner are speaking different languages. You say something, and they misunderstand. They reply, and you misinterpret that. There's a language barrier, and something is getting lost in translation. You feel unheard, alone, and unsure of what to do. You want so badly to explain to your partner how you feel and have them truly understand where you’re coming from. This cycle of misinterpretation has become so predictable that you’ve stopped talking about anything real in your relationship. You avoid each other and behave more like roommates than partners. You’d like to get back to feeling seen and connected.

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.
