“I primarily work with the queer community, offering support to those who are seeking to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and to provide a safe space for exploration related to gender, sexuality, life transitions, and more. I also specialize in supporting those struggling with anxiety, depression, and other relationship concerns. I currently work only with the adult population. I feel strongly about empowering individuals to live the most authentic life that they can and operate from a client centered focus.”
“I work with adolescents & adults through the lifespan.”
“I work with adults (18+), especially women navigating trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I also support veterans coping with the lasting impact of stress and trauma, and individuals experiencing complicated grief—especially when loss feels unresolved. In couples counseling, I help partners break patterns of conflict, improve communication, and rebuild connection. If you’re going through a life transition—whether expected or sudden—you might feel uncertain, overwhelmed, or like you’ve lost your sense of direction. Together, we can work to help you regain clarity and a stronger sense of self. My approach is supportive, collaborative, and real. I aim to create a space where you feel safe to be honest, understood without judgment, and empowered to make meaningful, lasting changes. You don’t have to keep carrying this alone.”
“I provide therapy to adults, couples and adolescents who are facing difficult life challenges/conflicts. I support clients who desire to improve their overall well-being, mental health and self-confidence so they can find more ease and peace and happiness in their lives and relationships. Even when change doesn't seem possible, seeking support is a sign of strength and we can start with small steps in the right direction. Many clients express feelings and experiences with anxiety, depression, irritability, grief, past trauma and/or overwhelm. Emotional distress and complicated relationship dynamics can be exhausting. So can feeling numb, agitated or feeling like you have to put on a "happy" face or can't take care of daily tasks. Therapy is a place to explore all of these thoughts/emotions and learn positive coping tools - so that you can feel better in your everyday life.”
“I have studied and worked with people who have experienced significant losses/grief (particularly early parental loss) in great depth. I have also had considerable experience with people who are struggling with issues around relationships, anxiety, overfunctioning, infidelity, early adulthood/mid life crises/aging, peri/menopause, fertility, cross cultural issues, perfectionism and existential questions.”
“I work with adolescents, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, perinatal, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, emotional overwhelm, and attachment-related difficulties. I especially enjoy supporting clients who feel stuck in patterns of people-pleasing, perfectionism, emotional invalidation, or fear of abandonment. My approach is warm, collaborative, and supportive while also helping clients build insight, coping skills, boundaries, and confidence. I work with individuals experiencing stress related to school, parenting, family dynamics, burnout, and identity development. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel understood, empowered, and able to heal at their own pace.”
“If you feel uncomfortable in your life, as though you're not moving forward the way you want to, this is your sign to try therapy. I work with people who are feeling anxious, who overthink, who have had bad experiences in relationships. I treat Anxiety, OCD, Hoarding Disorder, hair-pulling, skin-picking, and relationship and self-esteem issues.”
“I provided effective psychotherapy for a wide range of mental health concerns, offering a supportive and neutral space for children, adolescents, individuals, families, and couples.”
“Most commonly I work with women, LGBTQ+ folks, BIPOC clients, Latinx, immigrants and first generation Americans, veterans, neurodivergent individuals, teens, college students, couples, and high-achieving professionals. My clients are often struggling with not feeling good enough about themselves and comparing themselves to others. They might struggle with body image, feel frustrated with their own patterns of behavior, or experience ongoing difficulties in their relationships. They often find themselves stuck in the same cycles. They might have insight but can’t seem to change their behavior.”
“I work with adults who are navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. Many of my clients have experienced psychological abuse, religious trauma, complex trauma (C-PTSD), or difficult relationship patterns and are looking for clarity, healing, and healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. I also support individuals struggling with boundaries, attachment concerns, stress, feeling stuck, disconnected, or simply ready for growth.”
“I’m a marriage and family therapist who works through a systemic and attachment-based lens, exploring how past and present relationships shape how we experience ourselves and others. Early emotional environments teach us ways to cope and connect, but those strategies aren’t always sustainable. Therapy offers a space to explore and reshape those patterns. I specialize in working with couples and new parents navigating disconnection, communication challenges, and identity shifts. I also support individuals, adolescents, children, and families in learning to move through emotions rather than around them, building confidence, resilience, and secure connections.”
Finding support for Life Transitions
Life changes can bring stress, uncertainty, grief, pressure, or a sense that you are no longer sure what comes next. This page helps you find licensed mental health providers who offer online care for life transitions. Telehealth can widen your search beyond the nearest zip code, which may give you more options for fit, scheduling, and approach. Because online therapy depends on where a provider is licensed and where you are physically located during sessions, start by selecting the state or states where you will be during appointments. Then narrow your results using filters like service type, therapy modality, language, age group, and insurance.
Before you book
- Ask about the provider’s experience with your concerns and goals.
- Confirm availability, session fees, and your insurance coverage directly.
- Check that the provider can work with you in each state where you will attend sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions About Online Therapy for Life Transitions
How do I use this page to find an online provider for life transitions?
Start by choosing the state where you will be physically located during sessions, since telehealth availability depends on provider licensure. Then compare profiles based on concerns like divorce, career change, becoming a parent, retirement, caregiving, relocation, or grief. Use filters to narrow by service type, therapy modality, language, age group, insurance, and availability so you can find a provider whose style and logistics fit your needs.
What should I ask before booking?
Ask whether the provider has experience with the kind of transition you are facing and how they usually help clients through change. You can also ask about session format, cost, insurance, availability, goals for treatment, and what a first session is like. If your situation involves a partner, family, or child, ask whether they offer the type of support that fits your needs.
Does my online therapist have to live in my state, and what happens if I travel out of state?
Your therapist does not have to live in your state, but they usually must be licensed for the state where you are physically located during the session. If you travel, even temporarily, that can affect whether they can meet with you. It is smart to ask about this before booking, especially if you split time between states. You can also browse providers licensed in multiple states.
Does insurance cover online therapy for life transitions, and how does payment usually work?
Coverage varies by plan and provider, so check whether the provider is in network, what your copay may be, and whether prior authorization is required. Some providers offer private pay rates if they do not take your insurance. Before booking, ask about fees, cancellation policies, superbills, and how payment is collected so you know exactly what to expect.
What technology or privacy setup do I need for virtual sessions?
Most online therapy appointments work best in a private location with a reliable internet connection. A computer or laptop is often ideal, though a phone or tablet may also work depending on the provider and platform. Many sessions happen by video, but phone calls, secure messaging, texting, or email may also be used depending on the provider and service. Providers may also have policies about where sessions can take place, so check ahead if privacy or location may be an issue.
When is online therapy for life transitions not the right choice?
Online therapy may not be the best fit during an immediate crisis, when emergency support is needed, when a higher level of care is required, or when you do not have a private space or reliable internet connection. It may also be a poor match if your home environment makes it hard to speak freely. If you are in immediate danger or need urgent help, contact local emergency services or call or text 988 right away.
Can online therapy help with major life changes even if I am not sure what is wrong?
Yes. Many people seek support during a life transition because they feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unlike themselves without having a clear diagnosis or label. A provider can help you sort through what has changed, identify what is hardest right now, and build a plan for coping, decision-making, and support. You do not need to have the “right words” before reaching out.
Should I look for individual therapy, couples counseling, or family support during a life transition?
That depends on who is most affected and where the strain is showing up. Individual therapy may help if you want space to process your own emotions and decisions. Couples or family-focused care may be useful if a transition is creating conflict, communication problems, or role changes at home. Reading profiles carefully can help you find someone whose format matches your situation.
Need urgent support? Therapy Expanded is not a crisis service. If you are in immediate danger, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. If you need urgent mental health, suicide, domestic violence, substance use, or LGBTQIA+ support, visit our crisis and mental health resources page.
