Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
You’re busy. You’re thoughtful. You’re holding it together—but inside, you might feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or just tired of managing so much on your own. Whether you’re working from home, on the go, or simply craving support that fits into your life, online therapy can help you reconnect—with yourself, your goals, and your sense of ease.
I’m Dr. Megan Marks, a licensed psychologist and owner of The Momentum Practice. I specialize in working with high-achieving adults, neurodivergent folks (especially those with ADHD), and anyone navigating stress, life transitions, or relationship challenges. In our virtual sessions, you’ll find a space that’s affirming, practical, and tailored to you—not just your problems.
Therapy with me is collaborative and grounded in real-world tools, cultural responsiveness, and a good dose of insight (and yes, sometimes humor). Whether you're unpacking old patterns, building new habits, or learning how to rest without guilt, you don’t have to do it alone.
Virtual therapy at The Momentum Practice is just as affirming, collaborative, and effective as in-person work. Whether you're navigating anxiety, burnout, relationship stress, ADHD, or major life transitions, online therapy offers the flexibility to get support without sacrificing connection or privacy.
You deserve a space that helps you feel more like yourself—not just functioning, but fulfilled. Let’s build some momentum. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!

Cassandre Charnel
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Are you depressed? Sad? Anxious? Or have you experienced trauma, abuse, relationship challenges or loss? Do you struggle with codependency? Do you have difficulty setting healthy boundaries? Do you want to build self-esteem and confidence? Have your attempts to create meaningful changes in your life been met, repeatedly with short term-success? Are you losing hope with the prospect of a prosperous meaningful future?
Hi! My name is Cassie, and I'm a Christian, faith-based therapist licensed and located in the sunny (and sometimes rainy!) state of Florida. The questions posed above speak to challenges many of us are regularly faced with, but may find it difficult to speak about. Instead, we may find ourselves harboring feelings of shame and guilt which blocks us from pursuing and receiving the help we need.
Well, here’s the good news! Therapy with me is conducted within a safe, judgment-free space, where I provide opportunities for you to face those challenges and express those feelings. . I believe in the power of faith to guide healing, and I am honored to walk alongside individuals who desire therapy that aligns with their beliefs. At each stage of treatment, we’ll collaborate to assess and engage in a way which best fits you.
Ultimately, my desire is to help you reach a place of freedom and peace, where you can begin experiencing incremental yet impactful improvements to your overall wellbeing so your life and relationships can bear the fruit they were always meant to.
In simplest terms, I work best with people who are overwhelmed with life's challenges, don't know where to turn or what to do next, but are searching for answers and are willing to put in the work to find them.
I believe there’s hope for everyone, even those feeling utterly defeated in this season of their lives. If you’re here, then take it as evidence; the time for healing is now.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
Philadelphia Couples Therapy (PCT) is a doctoral-level couples group practice offering a treatment team approach to supporting couples of every persuasion. Couples work is not for the faint of heart; many times couples come into therapy on the verge of separation. The work is emergent and vital, often bringing each partner to a new space in life that feels transformative to them. The clinicians at PCT work together to provide couples, individual, and group treatment in order to bolster the couple system in the way it might need. Today, couples are expected to be everything to one another, all the while navigating children, mortgages, layoffs, or illnesses. Such pressure can unravel even the strongest of partnerships. PCT offers just the support couples need to get back on their feet and face the world again.

Alignment Psychotherapy, PLLC
Psychologist, LP, PhD
Pain often shows up when there’s a gap between who we are right now and who we hope to become. This disconnect can be shaped by internal challenges like anxiety, depression, ADHD, physical health issues, or unresolved trauma, as well as external pressures such as difficult relationships, job demands, or broader systems of inequality and injustice. All of these factors can make it harder to recognize what truly matters to us and take steps in that direction. As therapists, our aim is to support your mental well-being, help you reconnect with your values, and empower you to build a life that feels more fulfilling, purposeful, and aligned with who you want to be.

As an adolescent or young adult, you might spend most of your day in school with a variety of feelings to manage. If you have trouble in school, you might hate where you are most of your day. The anxiety and depression make it all feel unmanageable. Maybe you are just realizing that you don’t have to live each day hating your life. Together, we can work on skills you need to take control of your feelings and improve your daily life.
