ANCHOR POINT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH

LCSW, PMH-C

Licensed In:
Connecticut, New Jersey
“I work with thoughtful, high-functioning adults who are navigating seasons of transition, overwhelm, or emotional exhaustion. Many of my clients are professionals, caregivers, or parents who are used to holding a great deal for others while quietly struggling themselves. I have particular expertise supporting women during the perinatal and postpartum period, individuals processing complex trauma or grief, and adults navigating anxiety, ADHD, and identity shifts that often accompany major life changes. My clients are often insightful and self-aware, yet feel stuck in patterns of perfectionism, people-pleasing, chronic stress, or burnout. They may appear “put together” on the outside while internally feeling unanchored, depleted, or unsure of their direction. Together, we create a thoughtful, grounded space to slow down, deepen self-understanding, and reconnect with a steadier sense of s”

LMFT

Licensed In:
California, Florida, Idaho, Virginia
“We work with adults who are high-achieving on the outside and quietly unraveling on the inside. Many are navigating complex or intergenerational trauma, grief, identity shifts, and the kind of anxiety that looks like ambition until it doesn't anymore. Our clients tend to be self-aware, driven, and a little tired of surface-level answers. They've often tried therapy before and left feeling like something was missing. They want depth, not just coping skills. We specialize in adults carrying old wounds into new chapters, including immigrants, first and second-generation Americans, Jewish individuals, and women navigating high-pressure lives. If you've ever felt like you're holding too much and can't quite name why, you're probably our people.”

LMFT-S

Licensed In:
Colorado, Montana, Texas
“I work with adults, teens, couples, and helping professionals who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, burnout, relationship stress, life transitions, and the pressure of holding everything together. Many of my clients are overthinkers, people pleasers, high achievers, cycle-breakers, or the “strong one” in their family who’s exhausted from carrying everyone else emotionally. You may look successful on the outside while privately struggling with self-doubt, emotional exhaustion, boundaries, communication, trauma, or feeling disconnected from yourself and others. I also work with clients navigating identity exploration, attachment wounds, grief, ADHD-related challenges, and difficult relationship dynamics. If you’re self-aware but still stuck in the same patterns, craving healthier relationships, or simply tired of surviving instead of living, you’re in the right place.”

About Family Therapy

Online family therapy helps family members work on communication, conflict, transitions, parenting stress, sibling concerns, grief, divorce or separation, behavioral concerns, or patterns that keep repeating at home. Sessions may include the whole family, parents or caregivers only, siblings, adult family members, or different combinations over time.

Therapy Expanded helps you compare licensed online family therapists by state, family concerns, age groups served, therapy approach, insurance, language, and availability. If you are looking for therapy for one child or adolescent directly, browse child therapy or teen therapy. If the focus is parent guidance, co-parenting support, or your role as a caregiver, parenting therapy may be a better fit.

What To Know About Online Family Therapy

Online family therapy is a form of counseling that helps families work through challenges together using secure telehealth platforms, usually by video and sometimes by phone. Instead of focusing on just one person, family therapy looks at patterns within the family system: how people communicate, respond to conflict, support one another, and navigate stress as a group.

For many families, online therapy can make support more accessible. It may be easier to schedule sessions around school, work, childcare, or shared custody arrangements. It can also open up access to providers outside your immediate area, which may be especially helpful if you are looking for a therapist with experience in parenting concerns, child and teen mental health, blended family dynamics, grief, trauma, or major life transitions.

Online family therapy can support a wide range of concerns, including communication breakdowns, frequent conflict, parenting stress, sibling tension, behavioral concerns, divorce or separation, grief, illness, trauma, and adjustment to major changes at home. Some families seek therapy during a difficult season. Others use it to build stronger communication, healthier boundaries, and more supportive relationships over time.

It is also important to know that family therapy does not always mean every family member will be in every session. Depending on the provider and the goals of therapy, sessions may include the whole family, parents or caregivers only, siblings together, or different combinations over time. The therapist’s role is to help the family better understand what is happening beneath the surface and create healthier ways of relating.

That said, online family therapy is not the right fit for every situation. If there are serious safety concerns, ongoing abuse, coercion, or a family member cannot participate openly, a different type of support may be more appropriate. A qualified provider can help determine whether telehealth family therapy makes sense for your situation.

How Does Online Family Therapy Work?

Online family therapy usually begins by finding a provider who offers telehealth and has experience working with families. Many provider profiles list the age groups they work with, the types of family concerns they treat, their therapy style, fees, and scheduling details. Some also offer a consultation so you can ask questions before getting started.

After booking, you will typically complete intake forms and receive instructions for joining your session online. Depending on the family’s needs and the therapist’s approach, sessions may take place with everyone joining from one home, from separate devices in different rooms, or from different households altogether. A private setting, working technology, and clear expectations about who will attend can help sessions run more smoothly.

In the first few sessions, the therapist will usually learn about your family structure, the current challenges, and what everyone hopes will improve. You may talk about communication issues, emotional outbursts, discipline concerns, family stress, transitions, unresolved conflict, or patterns that keep repeating at home. The goal is not to assign blame to one person, but to understand how the family system is functioning and where change may be possible.

As therapy continues, sessions may focus on communication tools, emotional regulation, boundary-setting, conflict repair, parenting support, or helping family members better understand one another’s perspectives. Some therapists take a structured, skills-based approach, while others focus more on insight, family roles, and deeper relational patterns. Like in-person family therapy, online therapy works best when the people involved are willing to participate honestly and stay engaged in the process.

How to Find the Right Online Therapist for Family Therapy.

Finding the right online provider for family therapy starts with the practical basics. Make sure the therapist offers telehealth, works with families, and is licensed to provide care where participants will be located during sessions. If family members live in different households or states, that is especially important to confirm early.

Next, look for a provider whose experience matches your family’s needs. Some family therapists specialize in parenting and behavior concerns. Others focus on teens, blended families, divorce and co-parenting, grief, trauma, sibling conflict, or communication issues. A therapist with relevant experience is more likely to understand the dynamics you are navigating and offer support that feels useful.

It also helps to pay attention to the therapist’s style. Some family therapists are practical and structured, offering communication strategies, parenting tools, and clear steps to work on between sessions. Others take a more reflective approach, helping family members understand roles, emotional patterns, and long-standing dynamics. Reading provider bios can give you a sense of whether their approach feels like a good fit for your family.

Logistics matter too. Look at session cost, insurance information, scheduling options, cancellation policies, and whether the therapist allows family members to join from different locations. With family therapy, convenience can make a real difference in whether the process feels sustainable for everyone involved.

When available, a consultation can be a helpful next step. Ask what online family therapy with them usually looks like, who typically attends sessions, how they work with children or teens if relevant, and what kinds of family concerns they most often treat. The right provider should feel experienced, balanced, and able to create a space where different family members can be heard. Our directory makes that search easier by helping you compare providers and connect with care that fits your needs.

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.

Online Family Therapy FAQs

What is online family therapy?

Online family therapy is counseling for families delivered through telehealth. Sessions are usually held by video and may include parents, children, caregivers, siblings, or other family members, depending on the goals of therapy and the therapist’s approach.

How is online family therapy different from individual therapy?

Individual therapy focuses on one person’s thoughts, emotions, and goals. Family therapy looks at how people interact as a system. The goal is often to improve communication, reduce conflict, strengthen relationships, and help the family function more effectively together.

What issues can online family therapy help with?

Online family therapy may help with communication problems, parenting stress, sibling conflict, behavioral concerns, divorce or separation, blended family adjustment, grief, trauma, major life transitions, and ongoing tension at home. Some families also use therapy to strengthen already caring relationships and build healthier patterns.

Do all family members have to attend every session?

Not always. Some sessions may include the whole family, while others may involve only parents or caregivers, siblings, or selected family members. The structure usually depends on the therapist’s approach and what will be most helpful for the family’s goals.

Can children and teens participate in online family therapy?

Yes, many family therapists work with children and teens as part of online family therapy. The therapist may adjust the format based on age, attention span, developmental needs, and the specific concerns being addressed.

Can family members join from different locations?

Often, yes. Many online family therapists can work with family members joining from different homes or separate devices. However, licensing rules may still apply based on where each participant is physically located during the session, so it is important to confirm this with the provider in advance.

Is online family therapy as effective as in-person therapy?

For many families, yes. Research suggests online family therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy, especially in structured family-based treatments. A 2021 systematic review and meta-analysis found telehealth family therapy produced outcomes comparable to face-to-face care across many parent, child, and family measures, and reported no studies in which telehealth outcomes were worse than in-person treatment.

Will I still feel a real connection with my therapist online?

Yes, many families do. A strong therapeutic connection comes from feeling understood, respected, and supported, not only from being in the same room. Online family therapy can still feel personal, engaging, and collaborative when the provider is a good fit and the family is comfortable with the format.

How much does online family therapy cost?

The cost of online family therapy varies by provider, location, session length, and specialty. Some therapists are private pay only, while others may offer sliding-scale options. Provider profiles often include fee information or make it easy to ask about pricing before scheduling.

Can we use insurance for online family therapy?

Sometimes. Insurance coverage for family therapy and telehealth can vary by plan and provider. It is a good idea to check with both the provider and your insurance company to understand what may be covered and what your out-of-pocket costs could be.

When is online family therapy not the right choice?

Online family therapy may not be the best fit when there are immediate safety concerns, ongoing abuse, coercion, severe instability, or situations where someone cannot participate openly. In those cases, in-person care, individual support, or local crisis services may be more appropriate. If anyone is in immediate danger, contact local emergency services or call the National Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 9-8-8 right away.

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.
