Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Since the pandemic shook our world and the experience of how we connect with others, I have been practicing remotely. I have found that teletherapy has been as effective as meeting in person in terms of relationship building, creating a safe space, and communicating openly, honestly, and directly. For many clients with busy lives, online therapy reduces the obstacles of travel, traffic, and parking, and provides a simple way of managing billing/payment.

Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
You may be the person everyone depends on. The one who performs, leads, manages, and keeps going no matter what. From the outside, you look capable and composed. But inside, you feel exhausted, anxious, disconnected, overwhelmed, or unable to sleep. What used to feel manageable now feels impossible. You are tired of white-knuckling your way through a life that looks successful on paper, but feels unsustainable in reality.
I’m Dr. Gayle MacBride, a licensed psychologist with more than 20 years of clinical experience. I work with high-achieving adults navigating burnout, insomnia, relationship strain, trauma, and relentless internal pressure. Many of my clients have already tried pushing through on their own. They are not looking for generic advice or passive therapy. They want experienced, evidence-based care that is practical, strategic, and built for meaningful change.
My approach is direct, compassionate, and active. We identify what is driving the distress, define clear goals, and use a structured plan to help you move forward. Depending on your needs, I draw from CBT for anxiety and depression, CBT-I for insomnia, Prolonged Exposure and CPT for trauma, and Gottman-informed skills for relationship concerns. For couples who feel unsure whether to stay together, separate, or recommit, I also offer Discernment Counseling. This is therapy designed to help you sleep better, think more clearly, feel more grounded, and function in a way that is effective and sustainable.
I offer telehealth for clients in 40+ states, and in-person visits for people in the Southern Metro of Minneapolis. If you are ready to stop performing wellness and start making real changes, I’m here to help.

Paula Kirsch
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST
Online therapy isn't a compromise. For the kind of work I do, it's often the better choice. When you're talking about the most personal parts of your life, desire, intimacy, identity, relationship dynamics, being in your own space matters. You're more comfortable, more yourself, and often more open than you'd be in a waiting room and an unfamiliar office. That's not a small thing. It's actually the whole thing.
I work with individuals and couples navigating sexual concerns, intimacy issues, desire mismatches, and relational disconnection across New York, Connecticut, and Michigan. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Sex Therapist, and I bring genuine curiosity and deep clinical training to every session. Nothing you bring here will shock me or get pathologized.
Sessions are secure, HIPAA-compliant, and available within about a week of reaching out.

Carter Doyle
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC, EMT-P
Online therapy with me is warm, practical, and collaborative. I work from the belief that people do well when they have safety, clarity, and tools—so that’s what we build together. Sessions are held via secure video, so you can join from home, work, or even your car on a lunch break, as long as it’s private. This is especially helpful for folks with busy schedules, parents, caregivers, or those who just don’t want to sit in a waiting room.
I specialize in helping people untangle anxiety, trauma/attachment wounds, identity- and spirituality-related stress, ADHD-related overwhelm, and the emotional aftereffects of harmful or shaming messages. I often integrate parts work/Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR-informed approaches, and evidence-based psychiatric care to help you understand why you feel the way you do and what will actually help your nervous system settle. We go at your pace—nothing is forced.
Online sessions are structured but human. Some weeks we problem-solve; other weeks we process deeper experiences. My style is affirming of LGBTQ+ clients and people deconstructing or healing from rigid faith contexts. I welcome all of your identities in the (virtual) room.
If you’re looking for an online provider who can blend psychotherapy with thoughtful, trauma-informed psychiatric care, we may be a good fit. Send a message and we can see if what I offer matches what you need.

Tonya Wells
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW - Clinical
I center online therapy around you and your needs for greater well-being. You will be seen, heard, and respected. I will listen for not only what you say in session, but also for what you don’t say. I will encourage discussion about how your lived experiences and your identities (race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, etc) have shaped your life. We will identify realistic therapy goals and work toward achieving them. Building upon your strengths, we will practice self-compassion and learn to regulate emotions to improve well-being. We will test out different coping skills to see what works for you. Our sessions will be guided by your needs, and we'll pivot as necessary to ensure results. My client describe me as own words, “Tonya gets me, and I leave sessions feeling relieved and motivated. She helps me see my humanity.” They describe feeling safe and accepted in therapy. My clients express gratitude for newfound self-understanding and self-compassion. They report increased awareness of their capabilities and the ability to see more possibility.
