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.

Sally Roesch
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Some people struggle with impulsivity. Others struggle with too much control. Overthinking every decision, following rigid internal rules, and feeling like they have to perform a certain way in social situations. If you relate to the latter, therapy with me might be a good fit. You might be highly competent in many areas of life but find that when it comes to emotions and relationships, things feel frustratingly more complicated.
I also work with people navigating narcissistic personality dynamics. Whether you’ve been labeled "a narcissist" yourself or have spent years struggling in a relationship with someone who fits the description, we can sort through reality, break unhelpful patterns, and find a path to healthier relationships without losing yourself.
I am experienced in working with those who may be struggling with relationship issues, Narcissistic tendencies, mood disorders, impulse behavior, and anxiety. I help clients improve communication, assertiveness, and self-worth. My goal is to help you clarify desires, address obstacles, and achieve your goals. I am committed to providing direct, effective support; no tiptoeing around.
I am intensively trained in Radically-Open DBT (RO-DBT), a specialized treatment for Chronic Depression, Anorexia-Nervosa, and disorders of Over-Control (OC). Radically-Open DBT promotes openness, flexibility, and direct communication as well as other practical, evidence-based therapies. You’ll get clear feedback, collaboration, and usable skills - not endless past analysis or forced positivity. My goal is to identify the patterns that keep you stuck, learn new ways of approaching emotions and relationships, and move toward something different without losing who you are.

Group focuses on practicing emotional honesty, authentic relating, and processing life stressors and mental health struggles with a therapeutic community of fellow travelers.

Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
I offer online therapy for people who are thoughtful, sensitive, and self-aware, but still find themselves stuck in the same painful patterns—especially in relationships, identity, and life direction.

Joseph W. LaFleur
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW, DWTF, SEP, C-PATP
Online therapy offers the same quality care as in-person sessions with added flexibility and accessibility. For many clients, the comfort of their own space makes it easier to open up about difficult topics—things that might feel harder to say face-to-face can sometimes flow more freely from the privacy of home. Whether you're managing a demanding schedule, living in an area without nearby providers, or simply prefer the convenience of teletherapy, our secure video sessions allow you to engage in meaningful therapeutic work from wherever you are. We serve clients throughout DC, Maryland, Virginia, New Jersey, and New York, bringing experienced, affirming care directly to you.

Staci Des Rault
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC. M.Div
Insight alone does not create change, but without it, we're just bumping around in the dark. If you choose to work with me, we will work on both developing insight and self-awareness, as well as behavioral and emotional change. My style is warm and supportive, but I won't shy away from offering constructive feedback if you are open to it. My areas of expertise include helping people recover from alcohol/substance use issues, trauma, family of origin issues, spiritual abuse and religious trauma/deconstruction, grief, anxiety, relationship issues, ADHD management, and stages of life transitions.
