Online Therapy for High-Achieving Women in North Carolina
I Know Where You Are Right Now
You've lost an afternoon deciding what a short reply meant
You reread a message you already knew was fine before sending it
You hold yourself to a standard you'd never expect from anyone else
An A- feels like the part of the week that actually went wrong
You've reread a text from a partner more than twice before responding
"Are we okay?" is a question you ask often, and feel better for about ten minutes after

How Therapy Works
↪ Book a consult or start by contacting me here. It’s a 15-minute call to see if we’re a fit.
↪Wondering about cost or insurance? The Fees & Insurance page walks through session fees, in-network plans, and how to check your out-of-network benefits..
↪ Tell me what's going on and what you're hoping to work on.
↪ Start with a 60-minute online session from anywhere private in North Carolina, South Carolina or Florida. All you need is a phone, tablet or laptop, a decent internet connection, and headphones if anyone else is home.
↪ We’ll meet weekly for the first three months, building a connection, trust, and getting into the patterns underneath your feelings.
↪Leave with something concrete, the actual words for a conversation you've been avoiding, or a way to catch the spiral earlier.
Meet Your Therapist
Hey, I’m Kylie! I’m a licensed therapist and fellow millennial who helps high-achieving women stop overthinking and start trusting themselves.
As a kid, I was ambitious, perfectionistic, and convinced I could always be doing more. I walked into my first therapy session when I was 16, and I know how powerful it is to have someone in your corner. Someone who lets you be honest, messy, emotional, and never asks you to explain your worth.
That’s what I offer now: space to feel your feelings (in your body, not just your brain), practical tools to use in your everyday life, and honest support that doesn’t treat you like a project to fix.
My approach with clients is to name the pattern, make room for the feeling instead of managing it away, and help you build your self-trust back one boundary at a time.
I’m not here to give you all the answers. You’re in the driver’s seat! I’m just riding shotgun, helping you figure out what direction feels right and what might need to shift along the way.
What Makes This Different from Every Other Therapy Session I’ve Been to Before?
In session, I tell you what I actually see, instead of nodding along and waiting for you to get there yourself. You can show up mid-spiral, still in whatever state you're actually in, and that's a great place to start…exactly where you are. We focus on what actually matters to you, trusting your own judgment and getting your time back from the second-guessing.
I use a blend of evidence-based approaches: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindful self-compassion, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP). In practice, that means we start by naming the pattern that's actually running the show, usually the people-pleasing or the second-guessing. We make room for what you're feeling instead of judging it. We build the boundary or the self-trust piece that's been missing and practice it in sessions so you leave with something you can actually use.
By the End of Our Work Together, You Might…
Know how to calm your body when stress or anxiety show up
Notice the spiral starting and know what to do with it
Speak up for yourself without guilt or over-explaining
Say no to something and not draft a long-winded explanation for it
Keep the standards you have for yourself while dropping the punishment for missing them
Trust your own read on a situation without needing it confirmed from other people
Questions About Online Therapy
-
I work with high-achieving women on four specific patterns: the harsh inner critic, checking and reassurance-seeking in relationships, anxiety that shows up at work and with friends, and the pressure of living child-free by choice. If you want the details on how I approach any one of those, they're broken out on their own pages: Perfectionism Therapy, Anxious Attachment Therapy, Anxiety Therapy for High-Achieving Women, and Child-Free by Choice Therapy.

For anxiety, the research says yes. Studies comparing online and in-person therapy keep finding similar results. And a lot of women find it easier to say the hard thing from their own couch than from a stranger’s office. You also skip the drive, the waiting room, and the ten minutes in your car afterward fixing your mascara before you go back to work. If you want the longer answer, I wrote a whole post about it here
-
A private space where nobody’s going to walk in halfway through, a phone, tablet or laptop, and a decent internet connection. Headphones help if anyone else is home. Some clients take sessions from their car on a lunch break, which works too, as long as you’re parked! Sessions happen over Therapy Notes, which is secure and HIPAA-compliant
-
In our first session, we'll get right into what's actually been going on. I ask specific questions, not just “how does that make you feel,” so we can figure out what's really driving things. There's no pressure to share everything all at once…we go at your speed.
-
Nope! We’ll build trust together, and you decide what feels safe to share and when.
-
It depends! Some clients work with me for a few months, others choose to stay longer. We’ll check in along the way to make sure it still feels helpful and aligned.
-
The clearest shift most clients notice is catching the spiral earlier, recognizing the second-guessing as it starts instead of an hour into it, and having something to actually do instead of riding it out.
