I understand how important it is for us to feel connected to others, to be understood, and have a non-judgmental space in which to express ourselves. Together, we will work to identify your unique goals and develop strategies to help you achieve them. My commitment is to empower you to become a version of yourself you love and are proud of.

LMHC, LSW

Licensed In:
Massachusetts
“I serve individuals (14+) and couples navigating challenges such as trauma, ADHD, depression, anxiety, childhood trauma, relationship difficulties, and general feelings of dissatisfaction. In my work with couples, I recognize that communication is often a major barrier to connection. Many partners are also managing their own mental health needs, which can complicate interactions and contribute to misunderstandings. I provide a safe, supportive environment where both individuals can openly express their thoughts and emotions. Together, we explore the underlying dynamics affecting connection and work collaboratively on strategies to enhance mutual understanding and empathy. With individuals, I focus on self-discovery and skill-building. I support clients in developing personalized coping strategies that align with their unique experiences and mental health needs.”

Cody Gauthier

Cody Gauthier

LCSW, SEP

Licensed In:
California
“You might look like you’re functioning on the outside—career, relationships, responsibilities—but inside you feel stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break. Maybe trauma, addiction, or relational wounds and anxious patterns keep showing up in subtle (or not-so-subtle) ways. You might struggle with shame, numbness, control, perfectionism, or feeling disconnected from your body. Many of my clients want deeper connection—with themselves, their partners, their families—but don’t know how to access it without old defenses taking over. You don't have to do it alone. Healing often begins in the places we feel most stuck.”

Grow Heal Love

LCSW

Licensed In:
North Carolina
“Clients I work with frequently come to therapy feeling isolated, overwhelmed, and emotionally distressed by anxiety, depression, or stressful life transitions. They often feel disconnected from their true selves and seek to regain a sense of stability and grounding. Taking the first step to address emotional challenges is an act of tremendous courage and there is comfort in knowing it does not need to be faced alone. Through our work together, the strong therapeutic relationship we build provides essential support for growth and meaningful change. Clients frequently describe feeling genuinely listened to, understood, and met with warmth and authenticity during our sessions. Through our work together, clients uncover underlying barriers and unhelpful patterns contributing to their distress, while also identifying and strengthening their personal resources to foster growth.”

Finding support for Trauma & PTSD

This page helps you find licensed mental health providers who offer online care for trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Telehealth can widen your search beyond the nearest zip code, making it easier to compare providers who match your needs, schedule, language, and insurance. Because online therapy depends on where a provider is licensed and where you are physically located during each session, start by selecting the state or states where you expect to be during appointments. Then use filters like service type, therapy modality, language, age group, and insurance to narrow your results and find care that fits.

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 Trauma and PTSD

How do I use this page to find an online provider for trauma or PTSD?

Start by choosing the state where you will be during sessions, since telehealth care depends on licensure. Then use filters to narrow your results by service type, therapy modality, language, age group, insurance, and other preferences. The providers listed on this page have identified trauma and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as areas they work with, but it is still a good idea to speak with a provider directly to see whether their experience, approach, and availability feel like the right fit for you.

What should I ask before booking?

Ask whether the provider regularly works with trauma or PTSD, what online session formats they offer, and how they handle pacing if difficult emotions, memories, or triggers come up. It also helps to ask about fees, insurance, cancellation policies, availability, and what support looks like between sessions.

Does my online therapist have to live in my state, and what happens if I travel out of state?

No. Your therapist usually does not need to live in your state, but they typically need to be licensed in the state where you are physically located during the session. If you travel, move, or spend time in more than one state, ask about that before booking. You can also browse therapists licensed in multiple states. Rules and provider policies can vary, so confirm directly.

Does insurance cover online therapy for trauma and PTSD, and how does payment usually work?

Often, yes, but coverage depends on your plan and the provider. Check whether the provider is in network, what your copay or deductible may be, and whether telehealth sessions are covered the same way as in-person visits. Some providers are self-pay and may offer a superbill for possible out-of-network reimbursement. Insurance filters on this page can help you find options that may fit your budget.

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 trauma or PTSD 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. Some people also do better with in-person care when symptoms feel too intense to manage safely at home. If you are in immediate danger or need urgent help, contact local emergency services or call or text 988 right away.

What types of telehealth services are available for trauma and PTSD?

Depending on the provider, trauma and PTSD care may be available through individual therapy, child or teen therapy, couples counseling, family therapy, or group therapy. Some providers may also offer medication management. Use the service type filter to find the format that best matches your needs.

Can online therapy help with PTSD symptoms like flashbacks, nightmares, or triggers?

It can for many people. Some online providers help clients work on flashbacks, nightmares, avoidance, and trigger responses in a structured, gradual way that fits telehealth. When comparing profiles, look for experience with PTSD and ask how the provider approaches symptom management between sessions. Early appointments may focus on stability, coping skills, and helping you feel safe enough to continue.

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.
