Therapy for Adults in Vermont and Utah
Compassionate, evidence-based online counseling for anxiety, trauma, stress, and life transitions.
Many adults reach a point where life feels heavier than it used to. Stress builds, old patterns resurface, responsibilities increase, and difficult experiences from the past can show up in new ways. If you have been feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, you are not alone. Therapy for adults is a safe and supportive way to understand what you are going through and find a path toward lasting healing and change.
I offer online therapy to adults in Vermont and Utah. My style is warm, grounded, non-judgmental, and collaborative. Together we can explore what is creating distress in your life, make sense of the patterns that keep you stuck, and help you build emotional tools that support long-term wellbeing.
What Is Therapy for Adults?
Therapy for adults is a space that is entirely focused on you. It is a time where you can slow down, reflect, and have support while you work through emotional challenges, stress, or experiences that feel too difficult to navigate alone. Adult counseling gives you a place to connect with your thoughts and feelings, understand where they come from, and learn how to relate to them in a healthier and more compassionate way.
Many people enter adult therapy because they want to understand themselves better, break old patterns, or create meaningful changes in their relationships, their emotions, or their daily life. Others begin therapy during a major life transition or after something challenging has happened. There is no wrong reason to begin therapy. If something is weighing on you or keeping you from living the life you want, therapy can help.
A Human and Compassionate Approach to Therapy
My approach to therapy for adults is grounded, relational, and guided by your needs. Therapy is not about telling you what to do. It is a collaborative process where you and I work together to understand what you are experiencing and what needs to shift so that you can feel more in control of your life. Here’s what you can expect in our sessions:
A calm and supportive environment
This is your space to talk about what is on your mind, process difficult emotions, and feel seen and understood. You deserve a therapist who listens with care and presence.
Exploration of root causes
Instead of only treating the surface symptoms, we look at the deeper patterns that shape your reactions, your relationships, and the way you experience stress or pain. Understanding where these patterns come from can help you create meaningful and lasting change.
Evidence-based therapy
Your care is grounded in approaches that are supported by research and clinical effectiveness, including trauma-informed therapy, EMDR, mindfulness-based approaches, and practical skills for emotional regulation.
Tools you can use in daily life
Therapy should not only feel helpful in the moment. You will gain tools that support you outside of sessions such as grounding skills, boundary setting, nervous system regulation techniques, communication skills, and ways to respond to difficult emotions with more clarity and compassion.
A pace that feels comfortable
You set the pace of our work. Some people want to move slowly and gently. Others feel ready to dive deeper. Therapy is shaped around your comfort, your goals, and your readiness.
A chance to feel renewed
Therapy can help you move out of survival mode and back into a place where you feel more alive, more present, and more yourself. It’s a process of clearing what has been weighing you down so you can reconnect with hope, energy, and a sense of possibility again.

How Therapy Helps Adults Create Change
Therapy is more than a place to talk. It can help you:
Feel more grounded and steady
Develop healthier coping skills
Understand your emotional patterns
Heal from trauma and old wounds
Improve communication and relationships
Reduce anxiety, stress, and emotional overwhelm
Strengthen self-worth and confidence
Build a life that feels meaningful and aligned
Healing isn’t instant, but it is possible. Therapy gives you the support, insight, and tools to move toward the version of yourself that feels calmer, clearer, and more connected.
Common Reasons Adults Seek Therapy
Anxiety and chronic worry
Therapy helps you understand what triggers your anxiety and how to interrupt patterns of overthinking. You will learn how to calm your nervous system, create soothing routines, and respond to anxious thoughts with more clarity.
Trauma and difficult past experiences
Trauma can show up in adulthood in ways that are confusing or surprising. You might feel reactive, easily overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself. Therapy provides a steady and compassionate place to process what happened, regain a sense of control, and feel safer in your daily life.
Depression and emotional heaviness
Depression can make everything feel harder, from getting out of bed to connecting with the people you love. Therapy helps you explore the root causes of your depression and build the internal support you need to feel more present, engaged, and hopeful.
Burnout and chronic stress
Many adults carry far more stress than they realize. Therapy can help you understand what is draining you, set boundaries that protect your energy, and rebuild your sense of balance and wellbeing.
Relationship struggles
Therapy is a place to explore communication patterns, attachment wounds, conflict loops, and the emotional blocks that make relationships challenging. When you understand your patterns, it becomes easier to create healthier connections.
Life transitions
Life can shift quickly: career changes, moves, grief, breakups, identity changes, or becoming a parent. Therapy helps you ground yourself during times of transition so that you can navigate change with more clarity and resilience.
