Online EMDR & CBT-I Counseling for Adults in Kentucky, North Carolina & Florida
Therapy for high-functioning adults who are tired of holding it all together.
If you look successful and capable on the outside, but feel anxious, self-critical, or exhausted on the inside, you’re not alone and you don’t have to keep white-knuckling your way through life.
You look like you’re holding it together. Inside, it feels like you’re always bracing.
You're successful, capable, and high-functioning on the outside, yet constantly anxious, self-critical, or exhausted on the inside. You've probably done a lot of thinking, talking, and "working on yourself," but something still isn't shifting in the way you need it to.
Therapy isn't about trying harder or coping better. It's about helping your nervous system finally stand down. 
You don’t need to be falling apart to deserve support.
Many of my clients are people who:
Function well at work but feel overwhelmed or on edge internally
Overthink, people-please, or hold themselves to impossible standards
Struggle to rest, sleep, or feel “off duty,” even when things are going well
Understand why they feel this way they do but can’t seem to change it
Are tired of managing symptoms and want something deeper to actually work
How Therapy Here Is Different:
This work goes beyond insight, coping skills, or endless processing.
I specialize in trauma-informed therapy, including EMDR to help your nervous system resolve patterns that talking alone often can’t reach. Instead of repeatedly analyzing your anxiety or perfectionism, we work with what’s happening underneath it, so your system no longer feels like it has to stay on high alert.
Clients often notice:
Less mental noise and self-criticism
A greater sense of internal steadiness and confidence
Improved sleep & ability to rest
Feeling more present, flexible, and grounded in daily life.
The pace is intentional. The work is focused. The goal is real, long-term change not just better coping.
What Getting Started Looks Like:
I offer online therapy for clients in Kentucky, Florida, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
The first step is scheduling a free consultation. From there, we’ll talk about what’s been going on and see if working together feels like the right fit.
