Online Therapy for Professional Women In California and New York
You deserve a stellar therapist.
When we’re hurting inside, we just can’t show up as our best selves at home or at work — even if we’ve gotten very good at hiding it. Maybe we’ve even given up hope that things can be different.
But it doesn’t have to be that way. Therapy can help you figure out what’s getting in the way of the things you care about most, and plan your next steps for moving forward.
If you’re stuck right now, we can help.
Stella Nova therapists specialize in helping professional women navigate all of life’s ups and downs with greater ease and confidence.
Whether you’re looking to improve your mood, get out from underneath out-of-control stress, address trauma or loss, or work on building healthier relationships, we can pair you with a therapist who is a great match for your goals.
Common Issues Professional Women Bring Into Therapy:
- Stress, overwhelm, and burnout
- Anxiety and depression
- Confidence, self-esteem and perfectionism
- Managing chronic pain or illness as a professional
- Challenging professional relationships
- Balancing work with parenting, relationships, and personal goals
- Experiences of gender bias, racial discrimination, or systemic oppression
- Career decisions and transitions
- Healing from a workplace trauma
Therapy should be tailored to you.
When you first meet your Stella Nova therapist, we’ll spend some time getting to know each other. Your therapist will ask about your goals, your story, your strengths and challenges. Together, we’ll develop a plan for how we can work together.
Great therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all. At Stella Nova, we know how important it is to connect with a therapist who is a stellar fit for your needs and preferences.
Our therapists can work in a variety of different ways. For example, at times we might be more active and directive. At other times, we might step back and let you lead the way. And we’re always open to feedback about what works and doesn’t work for you.

We know, therapy feels kind of weird at first.
Talking to a stranger about private or painful parts of your life seems somewhere between awkward and impossible. It’s totally normal to have mixed feelings about meeting with a new therapist.
But we think you’ll find it’s worth pushing through some discomfort to get to the other side.
So consider this an invitation to get out of your comfort zone. At Stella Nova, we promise to do our best to take great care of you as you’re getting started.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is online therapy effective?
Yes! Research has found online therapy to be as effective as in-person therapy for most people and issues. It can offer greater flexibility and options to work with a therapist based on fit, rather than location.
Why should I work with a therapist who specializes in professional women's issues?
If your career, professional identity, or work experiences are impacting your mental health, working with a therapist who specializes in professional women’s issues can help. Some reasons of our clients are experiencing gender related bias or discrimination in the workplace. Others are considering a change in their job or profession, and want support in the process. Many are navigating the balance between their personal roles as parents, caregivers, friends and family members. And some are seeking support for dealing with a toxic workplace or a workplace trauma. A therapist who specializes in professional women’s issues can help with all these issues and more.
What areas do you serve with online therapy?
We are currently offering online therapy for adults throughout California and New York. We also offer couples therapy (California only).
How much does therapy cost?
Our sessions start at $160+, with prices varying based on your specific needs, as well as your therapist’s license and years of experience.
What are you, some kind of feminist?
Thanks for noticing! At Stella Nova, feminism is one of our core values. We believe that any any conversation about our mental and emotional health is incomplete without recognizing the impact that oppressive systems have on our lives. Women and gender non-conforming folks face unique challenges in their personal and professional lives, like bias and discrimination, gendered role expectations, or lack of professional support and mentorship—that can profoundly impact our well-being.
As feminist therapists, we strive to recognize how inequitable systems impact our mental health. We work to honor the ways we’re coping and surviving today, while also creating space to grow towards the lives we want (and the worlds we want to build).
