Compassionate mental healthcare with a whole body focus

Online therapy for overwhelmed women experiencing anxiety, OCD, burnout, and pregnancy and women’s issues in Maryland and Pennsylvania.

Has your life become about anxiety?

Overwhelm, overdrive, over it.

Despite all your effort, pushes, and thoughtful use of “wellness tips” to move forward, you may be feeling stuck. You’re used to checking off all the boxes, but feeling happy and whole remains unchecked. You might be telling yourself “I just have to get through this one deadline/phase/event/season” and then things will be okay. And yet, the rest doesn’t seem to come. It’s a rigged game- society tells us to keep working, but the finish line always seems to be moving.

You deserve for all of your hard work to go towards a better return on investment: you.

Our clients often find themselves left wondering when all their effort will lead to a break. We promise you, a life without constant worry, burnout, exhaustion, and triple-checking “just to be sure” is possible. Despite its prevalence, living in a cycle of anxiety and burnout is not normal. You deserve to feel better. And we know we can get there. Using evidence-based tools for the mind and the body, together we can create lasting, sustainable change. If you are feeling ready for a shift, but unsure where to start, that’s where we come in.

Let’s take back your life from being about anxiety to be being about the things that matter.

McNulty Wellness Collective is a boutique psychotherapy practice with a whole-body approach.

We are tailored to the unique needs of women, and envision a world where therapy is driven by what helps clients feel seen and heard, rather than what helps and upholds structural institutions that are harmful to women. Our team provides evidence-based, high-quality therapy that doesn’t compromise on value or warmth. We hope to empower our clients to make choices that benefit their wellbeing from a place of power and embodiment, not fear.

We’re not trying harder at a rigged game-

we’re trying different.

If you’re feeling ready to take up space, let’s chat.

It starts with a space to take a break, even if for just an hour. A relationship where you don’t have to perform, impress, or please. A moment of respite. Together, we will take a look at what’s going on and find your path to a better, more fulfilling life. But we’re not just talking about those coping skills you see online- we don’t stop there. Getting to the root of how you got here means tackling this problem from all angles. We look at your psychological patterns, experiences, sleep, movement, nutrition, menstrual cycle, and of course, your environment. Everything that makes you, you- I want to hear all of it. And I promise you deserve to feel better. So, we aren’t taking any short cuts.

In working with me and my team, you will find an accountability partner with compassionate investment in your health and wellness.

Our practice is focused on wellness, not just the absence of illness. You are not a problem to be fixed. You are a person more than deserving of a fulfilling life with meaning, purpose, enjoyment, and (…dare I say it, relaxation).

My name is Alex, and I work with overwhelmed women experiencing anxiety disorders, burnout, stress, perfectionism, and OCD. I provide online individual mental health therapy with consideration of a whole-body, nutritional approach.

I have recently expanded my practice to serve additional areas where I see women struggling - pregnancy and postpartum, infertility, reproductive health and PCOS, and body image/disordered eating.

Women deserve better, and we are passionate about helping you reclaim trust in yourself.

I’m so glad you’re here!

Our Approach & What Sets Us Apart:

Our approach to mental health is integrative and tailored to the unique needs of women.

Lifestyle & Biological Factors | “Laying the Foundation”

We can’t out-think our biology (believe us, we’ve tried). Therefore, we cannot ignore the impact of what we call “the foundations”:

  • sleep

  • nutrition

  • movement

  • your menstrual cycle

  • environmental factors including socialization, activity, technology, systemic issues, our culture, etc.

We make a point to address these factors in our intake because of how impactful they are to our mental health.

Therapy Tools, Technique, & Skills | “The Work”

This is the typical therapy part. While we are each unique in our experiences and challenges, there are some fundamental elements to our work:

  • cognitive and acceptance work to help you navigate and change your relationship to your thoughts and emotions (hint: when we pay attention to our emotions, we don’t give them power, we give US power)

  • practical tools that aren’t a band-aid, but lead to sustainable, lasting change

  • strategies for signaling safety to your body and actually helping your anxiety

  • a compassionate (and sometimes fun!) space for healing and growth with an emphasis on living a happy, fulfilling life

Evidence-based treatments don’t have to be cold and clinical. Holistic treatments don’t have to be mysterious and murky.

Yes, your roots matter.

But the grass is green where you water it…
