My approach blends understanding, compassion, and evidence-based methods to help you release tension, regain focus, and restore a sense of calm.

Types of stress I work with
Whether it comes from work, relationships, or daily responsibilities, stress can show up in many forms. Here are some of the most common types I help clients work through.
Acute Stress
This is the body’s immediate reaction to a short-term challenge — like a work deadline, conflict, or unexpected event. It usually fades once the situation is resolved, but frequent episodes can still take a toll.
Episodic Acute Stress
When short-term stress becomes a pattern: constant urgency, overcommitment, or perfectionism — it can lead to irritability, exhaustion, and difficulty relaxing.
Chronic Stress
Long-term, ongoing pressure that never fully goes away — often related to work, finances, caregiving, or major life changes. Chronic stress can impact sleep, health, and emotional balance over time.
Work-Related Stress
Stress linked to workload, long hours, difficult work environments, or feeling undervalued. Online therapy for stress can help you set boundaries and manage workplace demands.
Relationship or Family Stress
Emotional tension caused by conflict, communication issues, or caregiving responsibilities. Therapy helps you find calm, empathy, and healthier ways to respond.
Perfectionism-Related Stress
When high expectations and self-criticism create constant pressure. Working with a therapist helps you set realistic goals and cultivate self-compassion.
Other Stress
Some stress doesn’t fit into a clear category. I will help you understand where it comes from and find healthy ways to manage it.
How do I know if I have Anxiety or Stress?
Stress and anxiety often feel similar, racing thoughts, tension, and difficulty relaxing, but they come from slightly different places.
Stress is usually a response to something happening right now, like a deadline, conflict, or major life change. It tends to fade once the situation is over.
Anxiety, on the other hand, often continues even after the stressor has passed. It involves ongoing worry, fear, or physical symptoms like restlessness and rapid heartbeat.
In other words, stress is your body’s short-term reaction to pressure, while anxiety can become a long-term pattern that affects your daily life and sense of peace.

What to Expect from my Online Sessions
Each session is designed to meet you where you are: with understanding, compassion, and collaboration at the center of our work. I strive to create an affirming, judgment-free space where you can explore your identity, emotions, and experiences at your own pace.
My online gender therapy approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with mindfulness and self-compassion practices. Together, we’ll identify the roots of stress or self-doubt, build coping strategies, and reframe unhelpful thoughts so you can move toward self-acceptance and confidence.
Online sessions are flexible and confidential, allowing you to connect from wherever you feel most comfortable. Whether you’re exploring gender identity, managing daily challenges, or seeking clarity, you’ll find a space of warmth, validation, and respect — one that honors your voice and your journey.
