Being a successful and happy person hinges on one’s ability to respond to and navigate through experiences and changes in our lives, whether these are predictable life stages or more unexpected events or obstacles. My role as your therapist is to help you identify your own unique path and to learn how to accept, cope with and heal from whatever difficulties that path brings. My clients experience me as a “real” person- open and approachable, genuinely interested in their stories, and able to lau...

I am currently an online psychotherapist with over 21 years of clinical experience. I draw from various evidence-based approaches to provide personalized therapy that meets your unique needs. While we cannot always avoid the challenges that arise in our life, we do have a choice how to address them. I believe that there is much to learn from the...

College and grad school can be a roller coaster—exciting, overwhelming, and everything in between. If you’re feeling stressed about classes, navigating relationships, building confidence, or working through tough experiences like grief, trauma, or a loved one’s mental health, you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to help. Our sessions are a space where you can be yourself—whether that means venting, problem-solving, or just taking a breath. My practice is inclusive and affirming, and centered ...

I provide individual therapy to those experiencing a wide range of life challenges including relationship difficulties, work-life balance, life transitions, identity loss, anxiety, depression, and stress management. No matter where you are in your life, if you are looking for a change, you are in the right place. Psychotherapy with me is a collaborative process, and I value authenticity, openness and humor. I strive to crea...
*While I am not in-network with the Dartmouth Student Health Plan, I do bill that plan directly as an out-of-network provider, and students only pay a $30 copay each session.* I have been working with college-age students and young professionals throughout my career, and have previously been employed at both The University of Vermont and Dartmouth College. My goal is to understand my clients' concerns through their lens while reflecting back what seems to be getting in the way of achieving the...
No two people are the same. Therefore, I strive to provide treatment that fits each person’s unique needs and goals. I work to foster a partnership with each individual that respects their own problem-solving style while providing additional tools to address unmet needs. I believe that everyone has strengths and challenges. Our work together can fortify those strengths while mitigating challenges to reduce stress and suffering in daily life....
We know that searching for a therapist can be one of the most difficult parts of coping, healing, and self-empowerment, because it's the first thing you must do. You must force yourself out of your comfort zone and out of whatever routine you've had before, to take the initiative and embark on a new path. When we're at our best, stepping out of our comfort zones can be daunting; when we're feeling vulnerable, it can seem nearly impossible. No matter what prompted you to take this first step, we'...
Hi, I’m Amy, a licensed clinical social worker dedicated to supporting my clients on their journey toward authenticity. I work with adults of all ages as they navigate challenges and transitions, perhaps dealing with anxiety, depression, loss, confusion, self-doubt, or overwhelm. Most of my clients are neurodivergent, and/or queer-identifying (as am I). My warm approach is focused on you as the expert of your own life, experience, and story. I seek to create a safe, compassionate space where...
My goal as a therapist is to provide my clients with a safe, comforting, and nonjudgmental space where they can be their authentic selves. This environment is essential for effective therapeutic work. I encourage my clients to use our time together in a way that best meets their needs, so I tailor sessions to those individual requirements. Whether you need someone to vent to, someone to challenge your thinking, or someone to provide you with skills for change, we will align your treatment accord...
Hi, I’m glad you’re here! I want therapy to be what you need it to be. Your therapy session is time dedicated solely to you. My hope is that we are able to spend our time being present; focusing on any challenges, changes, or celebrations you’d like to discuss. I do my best to provide my clients with a safe, non-judgmental, and empathetic space where they can openly express their thoughts and feelings. I specialize in working with girls and women in their adolescence and young adulthood. My coun...
Hi there! My name is Cory Bedtke, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I received a Master of Social Work degree from Loyola University Chicago in 2015, and started my career as a school social worker prior to switching over to clinical work with adults. While this may seem like a big transition, it's funny how similar our problems are at the different stages of life. Currently, I enjoy working with clients in young and middle adulthood who would like to feel less stressed and anxi...
I love helping people who are new to therapy and wanting to learn about how to change the way they've had to struggle through life. I'm here to help you manage anxiety, depression, stress, relationships, family issues, gender, sexuality, and anything else on your journey into independent adulthood. Let's talk about it and find some strategies to soothe it now, and stop problems from reoccurring. If you're reluctant about therapy, I can reassure you that I'm not here to judge, and want to make it...

From Broken Therapy As my practice’s name implies, we can all feel broken at times. And to compound matters, we might face discrimination through no fault of our own—on the basis of race, sexual orientation, gender, finances, age, health or ability status, or neurocognitive differences. In my years of practice with the chronically ill and under-housed, I’ve seen and addressed the fallout from stigma and institutional barriers all day every day. So that’s the bad news, which you probably...
Welcome! If you're seeking a down-to-earth and relaxed therapist, you're in the right place! I specialize in creating a safe, affirming space for individuals within the LGBTQ+ communities, where I have lived experience, and individuals navigating chronic illness and caregiving. I understand how important it is to feel heard and validated, especially when dealing with sensitive topics such as gender identity, transgender health, trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, boundary setting, and more. M...
I welcome the individual that is curious to understand the myriad of feelings, patterns and issues in one's life. I create space to be known and understand the self. Young adulthood is a time of discovery, to figure out how you want to be. Old defenses and coping skills may not be working as well. My professional interests are broad when it comes to the human condition including grief and loss, relationships and transitions. I work through a relational psychodynamic strength-based attachmen...

Hate therapy? I get it. If you’d rather spend your time and money not sifting through your problems, I don’t blame you. But, if you are missing out on a sense of peace or feel like you'll burst if something doesn't change soon, then it’s worth it to invest in yourself through therapy. I'm committed to not pathologizing people (you are not broken), but some of the concerns I work with the most are: men’s issues (i.e. intimacy) , life transitions (i.e. college, divorce), anxiety, substance use di...
