“I work with children ages 6+, teens, adults, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, grief, identity development, life transitions, attachment concerns, and family stress. I also specialize in supporting individuals and families impacted by adoption, kinship care, foster care, and out-of-home placement experiences. My approach is compassionate, trauma-responsive, and developmentally appropriate. With children and teens, I often use play-based, expressive, and skills-based interventions to support emotional regulation, coping, and confidence. With adults and families, I provide space to process experiences, strengthen communication, and move toward healing, connection, and growth.”
“I specialize in treating Perinatal and Postpartum Mood and Anxiety Disorders as well as in trauma. I have extensive experience in the areas of depression, anxiety, trauma, and OCD. Through my years of experience I have been able to effectively build therapeutic rapport with individuals and am able to help adults gain a better understanding of their experiences in order to achieve their goals.”
“I work with children, teens, young adults, and adults, as well as couples seeking to strengthen their connection. Whether you are navigating the hurdles of growing up, the pressures of adulthood, or the complexities of partnership, I provide a steady, non-judgmental space to heal. My practice focuses on helping clients break free from the grip of depression, anxiety, and chronic stress. I also have a deep commitment to those processing trauma, helping you move from a state of survival toward lasting stability. No matter the stage of life or the dynamic of your relationship, we will work together to dismantle the obstacles in your way and reclaim your peace.”
“I'm passionate about supporting queer and neurodivergent teens and adults who have experienced relational or religious trauma find peace on the inside so they can live boldly on the outside. If you fit that description, you’re probably exhausted from constantly fighting with yourself. You might wonder why you’re always drained even though you feel like you’re never doing enough. To someone looking from the outside, it might look like you’re just sitting on the couch. But inside feels like all-out war between different parts of you that are fighting over what you should or shouldn’t be doing. Your body may not be moving, but your mind is racing. No wonder you don’t have any energy left.”
“I help clients by creating a supportive and honest space where they can feel heard, understood, and gently challenged when needed. My work focuses on relationships, family systems, trauma, grief, women’s issues, caregiving stress, and helping couples and intimate partners rebuild communication, trust, and emotional connection.”
“I work with adolescents and adults 13 years or older. For in person sessions, I see children, teens, and adults over 11 years old. I see people for a variety of issues including depression, anxiety, ADHD, emotional disturbances/anger issues, and family conflict. I work with individuals and couples. Depending on circumstance, I may also see families. A majority of my clients have been impacted by the criminal justice system in some way (i.e. have been in prison, family members or friends of people in or previously in prison, etc.).”
“The majority of my clients are women navigating everything that comes with adulthood including the journey of motherhood (natural, IVF, and/or adoption).”
“I work with teens and adults who feel emotionally overwhelmed, unseen, or disconnected from themselves. Many of my clients have been told they’re “too sensitive,” feel pressure to please others, or are exhausted from carrying others’ expectations. I support individuals who replay past experiences, struggle with guilt or people-pleasing, or want to feel like themselves again. I offer an affirming space to explore childhood experiences, religious influences, ADHD, chronic stress, identity, and new ways of relating to emotions and relationships.”
“I work with adults in Oregon and New Mexico, with a special focus on women navigating trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, chronic stress, chronic pain (including fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome), relationship concerns, the emotional impact of chronic illness and feeling dismissed or unheard within the healthcare system, and major life transitions. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, disconnected from themselves, or struggling to move beyond painful experiences. I also have extensive experience supporting refugees and immigrants who are navigating the emotional impact of displacement, loss, trauma, and cultural transition. Whether adjusting to life in a new environment, coping with grief, or struggling with questions of identity, belonging, and safety, I strive to provide a compassionate, culturally responsive space where clients feel understood, respected, and supported.”
“My ideal clients are couples and families who genuinely care about one another but feel stuck in painful patterns they don’t know how to break. They may be rebuilding trust after betrayal, navigating the stress of parenthood or major life transitions, or struggling to reconnect with a teen who feels distant. They aren’t looking for someone to take sides—they want clarity, tools, and a path forward. They’re ready to move beyond blame and toward healing, stronger communication, and lasting change.”
“I work with adolescents and adults navigating a wide range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, postpartum mental health conditions, eating disorders, burnout, stress, and life transitions. Whether you’re seeking support for the first time or looking for a fresh approach, I provide personalized, evidence-based psychiatric care in a compassionate, judgment-free environment. Together, we’ll develop a treatment plan tailored to your goals, lifestyle, and long-term well-being.”
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.
