Grounded, thoughtful online therapy for women & teen girls across Texas, Arizona, & Montana
For those who look like they’re coping on the outside but feel chronically tense, overwhelmed, or worn down inside.
About Madilynn Szoboszlay, LCSW
Hi, I’m Madilynn Szoboszlay, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and the founder of Storied Souls Therapy, PLLC. I help teen girls and women who appear capable on the outside but live with chronic internal tension, emotional overload, or emotional shutdown begin to feel steadier and more at ease in themselves again.
Parents often reach out when their daughter is withdrawing, melting down, or overwhelmed by everyday demands, especially when she looks “fine” to others.
Women often come in feeling numb, irritable, or constantly on edge after years of pushing themselves too hard. Therapy focuses on interrupting long-standing patterns of perfectionism, over-responsibility, and survival-based coping so clients can move out of constant self-pressure and into a more grounded, sustainable way of living.
My Work and Why I Do This
I bring clinical experience across the developmental spectrum, with my primary focus centered on high-achieving and highly sensitive women and teen girls navigating anxiety, burnout, and perfectionism. Many of the clients I work with have learned how to function well under sustained pressure.
On the outside, life appears handled and capable. But internally, there is often a constant sense of bracing, pushing through, or holding everything together.
Over time, living this way can lead to chronic anxiety, irritability, emotional shutdown, or difficulty resting without guilt. Many clients seek therapy not because of a single crisis, but because the pace and pressure of daily life have quietly become unsustainable.
This work is slower and more intentional than surface-level therapy. Lasting change requires internal safety rather than more effort.
My role is to help you understand the patterns keeping your nervous system under strain and support you in building steadiness, clarity, and trust in yourself again.
This therapy may be a good fit if you or your daughter are:
• A teen girl who feels tense, overwhelmed, or shut down despite doing well on the outside
• A parent noticing emotional meltdowns, withdrawal, or exhaustion in a daughter who used to seem “fine”
• A woman who feels constantly on edge, numb, or emotionally worn down
• Someone who struggles to slow down or rest without guilt
For Those Seeking Depth, Not Quick Fixes.
Looking for grounded, thoughtful therapy rather than quick fixes often means you are tired of strategies that ask you to cope better without actually feeling better. You may want space to slow down, understand what is happening beneath the surface, and experience real steadiness rather than just pushing through the week.
This is therapy for those who are tired of living under constant internal pressure and want a more sustainable way of being.
My Approach to Therapy
My approach is grounded, intentional, and collaborative. Therapy is a space to slow things down and understand what your nervous system, emotions, and patterns have been carrying over time.
Rather than asking you to tolerate more, our work focuses on reducing the internal load so regulation and relief can emerge naturally.
Where and How We Meet
I believe therapy should fit your life, not the other way around. To make deep, intentional work as accessible as possible, I provide online therapy for women and teen girls throughout Texas, Arizona, and Montana. This allows you to prioritize your healing from the comfort and privacy of your own space. If you prefer meeting face-to-face, I also offer in-person sessions in Frisco and Dallas, TX.
Whether we connect through a screen or across a room, our work remains focused on reducing the internal load so you can begin to feel steadier. If desired, Christian faith integration can be woven into our sessions in a thoughtful, client-led way.

What Guides This Work
I use trauma-informed, evidence-based practices and tailor therapy to your goals and pace.
I believe therapy should feel steady, respectful, and deeply attuned to your nervous system. Sessions are not about fixing you or pushing for insight before your system is ready. They are about creating enough internal safety for real change to unfold, without pressure or performance.
How Therapy Helps You Feel Steadier
Navigating the Cost of Care
I believe that high-quality, depth-oriented therapy should be as accessible as possible. To support this, I provide several ways to manage the cost of your care:
In-Network Coverage: I partner with Headway to accept select insurance plans (including Aetna and Cigna in specific states), allowing you to utilize your benefits directly for our sessions. I am currently expanding my network to include additional providers soon.
Out-of-Network (OON) Support: For those with other insurance providers, I partner with Mentaya to help you get reimbursed. They handle the claims process for you so you can focus on your healing, not the paperwork.
Private-Pay: This remains a preferred option for many women and parents who value maximum privacy, consistency, and freedom from insurance-mandated diagnoses or session limits. This approach allows us to work at a pace that supports real, lasting change rather than rushing toward symptom reduction.
Whether you utilize insurance or choose to pay privately, my commitment is to provide an intentional space that honors your story and your nervous system.
Detailed information on specific fees and how to verify your coverage can be found on my Insurance & Fees page.
You do not have to keep holding it together alone.
If you or your daughter are ready to step out of constant internal pressure and begin feeling steadier and more supported, I invite you to schedule a free consultation. This brief conversation allows us to talk through what is happening and whether this approach feels like the right fit.
