Well, hello there. Welcome to Modern Therapy.

A modern take on the therapy and coaching experience.

Book A Session

I wanted to build a place that felt like it was made for people like me. So Modern Therapy was born for high functioning professionals navigating this thing we call life. And we do it via therapy and coaching because the mix of healing and intention is so life giving in every way.

We hear things like, “I’ve had this anxiety knocking underneath the surface and I haven’t been able to shake it. I want to feel differently and I’m tired of trying to figure it out on my own.”

Fill in the blank with whatever you’ve got. But that was me too (Hi - Dr. B here). I knew first hand what it was like to seem fine on the surface, even “successful” by many measures, but be struggling underneath. Sometimes it was due to old protective responses like people pleasing and over-functioning. Sometimes it was due to life handing my ass to me the way life does sometimes. Sometimes it was from starting to default to less-than-intentional living. I had read the books and listened to the podcasts, but that only got me so far. My mind and body needed something deeper and more transformative. I needed to reconnect with myself, my life, and my relationships with new clarity and I needed the right kind of company to help me do that.

We have a diverse team of therapists and coaches that cover a wide range of human ails and aspirations. From more broad experiences like anxiety, depression, trauma, faulty (but well intentioned) coping mechanisms, you name it, to more nuanced and specialized experiences like executive mental health and leadership, life coaching, maternal health, OCD, and traumas from being marginalized. We also offer psychedelic therapy because we’re not afraid to bring the big muscle when we need it.

  • "The location is great, the offices are beautiful and calming, but it's my therapist that steals the show. She is compassionate, funny, insightful, and is really impressive in her ability to draw things out of me that have been historically hard to share or hard to look at. She's done so in a way that feels productive, non-judgmental, and has helped move forward toward my goals."

  • "I didn't know that through coaching I would be able to work on how I show up for everyone - family, friends and clients. I think it has built my confidence and helped me to become more efficient. My coach has given me simple tools like journaling and breath work when I feel anxious and parenting ideas for my son."

  • "I am so grateful to have been assigned to my therapist. She is comforting, calm, eager to listen, and has so much insight without being pushy. Her memory surprises me often and her willingness to get to know me and how I “learn” has been priceless. My entire experience has been beautiful and I look forward to our sessions every week!"

  • "I had never had a life coach, I was only used to having a therapist. I didn't realize a life coach was more so what I needed given the actionable items to relate and transform the circumstances of real life."

  • "My therapist is AMAZING!! She really understands me and has gotten to the point where she knows I’m hiding something and she knows the right questions to ask to get it out of me. I’ve been able to better my communication with my loved ones and I’ve been able to talk myself down from an anxiety attack, thanks to the strategies and tips my therapist has provided. "

  • "My therapy experience at Modern Therapy has been great. My therapist has helped me get through a tough time and help give me tools to see life in different lenses. She is great and I couldn’t be more happy with the decision to go to Modern Therapy. "

  • "It’s been the single greatest thing I’ve ever decided to do for myself. My life is drastically different than it was when I started coming to MT 9 years ago and I have my therapist and the skills and behaviors she taught me to thank for it. I’ve learned how to identify toxic environments, set boundaries, cope with my anxiety. "

  • "My therapist's guidance has profoundly impacted my life. Her brilliance, charisma, and deep understanding make her one of the most exceptional individuals I've had the privilege of meeting. The insights she offers are both thought-provoking and eye-opening. I've felt an unparalleled level of comfort that has allowed me to be candid and open. "

  • "I'm blessed beyond measure that my therapist's approach has made it easier for me to open up and share my thoughts and feelings. Her empathetic and non-judgmental ways enable me to feel understood and supported throughout our sessions. What truly sets Lisa apart is her ability to share her knowledge in a compassionate way while demonstrating she "gets" me."

  • "The truth is, I do so much. I think constantly, consume constantly. My mind is a nonstop engine. Coaching has become the space where someone—who’s literally designed for this—can help organize my brain. Help clear the clutter, pull out the mental junk, and make sure I don’t drown in my own thoughts. It’s like having someone clean out the internal filing cabinet I didn’t even realize was overflowing."

  • "When you’re an entrepreneur it is amazing to have someone who can deal with the whole of your person rather than one part or the other. Coaching is like a chat with a good friend who is as interested in who you are-as you are. The ability to recognize my parts, check in with them, and see how they are doing, has enabled me to be present and throw off the shackles of unhealthy responses."

  • "My therapist is AMAZING! I have been in therapy since I was 12 and have had various therapists. There are only two that had an approach that helped me start to make significant changes. I feel understood, cared about and heard. I also feel like she gives me things to think about and a different perspective. Light bulbs have been going off that are helping turn some corners. Love her! "

  • "I feel better each time I meet with my coach. I feel like I knew these things, but they were so clouded behind fear and doubt that I could not find them. Jess cleared out the haze and helped me see what I knew was there. I have taken steps to be more active and more culinary than before. I have talked with partner to set boundaries and discussed fears and spaces I have and need."

  • "My therapist at Modern Therapy is absolutely wonderful. As a married couple, we have heard several stories from others about their therapist and feel so lucky to have gotten Margot on our first try in couples therapy. She's helped us really learn effective ways to communicate and we're so grateful."

  • "My coach's guidance has been both practical and empowering. As an executive, I often ignored the signals my body was sending me—something I didn’t fully recognize. I also came to understand that I wasn’t as harsh as I had feared, as long as I was speaking up intentionally and appropriately."

  • "I'm feeling more empowered to feel that I can feel the pain and still love and grow. There are levels of energy and experiencing and noticing where I am at that moment. My coach also helped me to breathe, slow down and notice what I feel. She is one of a kind. I have referred her and adore her."

  • "My therapist was truly exceptional. She helped me reconnect with myself, recognize patterns I had been ignoring, and create space to reflect before reacting. Her guidance gave me clarity and emotional tools that I now use daily—in both my personal and professional life. Working with her was transformative, and I’m incredibly grateful for her support."

  • "Overall, it’s been really great working with my coach. She is very relatable and understanding, while providing a new perspective for me to sit with. My coach and I really work on habit stacking and looking back on our time together, I’m so happy with progress I’ve made with my nutritional and movement habits. One other shift has been my mental shift on how I go about treating myself and when to listen or quiet my inner voices."

  • "I've learned that coaching can help with a lot of different issues and/or goals that one may have. That coaching has both breadth and depth when it comes to what it can help with. Whatever I bring to Jess, whether it's a concern/worry, or it's something I want to change or build, she's able to calm me down, and or give me steps to begin to work on something. It feels like a very collaborative process, and I always feel supported by my coach.".

  • "I’ve previously had a coach before but my MT coach could zero in on my concerns and helpMe to identify the issues to be addressed. she helped me identify why I had certain negative feelings at work and how to address the issue or set boundaries with others. I had been having difficulty sleeping and my sleep has greatly improved."

  • "Since I've been working with my coach for some time, I've come to appreciate that coaching is truly a journey. I've learned that it's not just about receiving guidance but also about embracing the process as my coach explores new tools and perspectives with me, helping me navigate through life's challenges and discoveries."

  • "You’ll never regret learning more about yourself in coaching. My coach is my safe space. Working with her hasn’t been work at all. She’s invited me into this space where I can reflect and grow at my own pace. She’s truly so much more to me than just my coach. "

  • "Coaching isn’t just about fixing problems—it’s about unlocking your potential. If you're ready to dig deeper into your goals, gain clarity, and develop practical habits for growth, it’s 100% worth it."
