Individual Therapy for Women experiencing Anxiety and Overwhelm

Anxiety can look like constant worry, irritability, perfectionism, people-pleasing, or feeling “on edge” all the time.

In therapy, we’ll explore:

  • The root cause of your anxiety

  • How your nervous system responds to stress

  • Patterns that keep you stuck

  • Tools that actually help you feel calmer and more grounded

This work goes beyond coping-it’s about helping your system feel safer long-term

EMDR Therapy

EMDR therapy helps the brain process experiences that haven’t fully resolved on their own.

EMDR may be helpful if:

  • You feel emotionally reactive or easily triggered

  • You know something from the past still affects you

  • You’ve talked about things but don’t feel much relief

  • Anxiety feels tied to specific memories or sensations

EMDR is always done at a pace that feels safe and collaborative.

Trauma-Informed Therapy

Trauma doesn’t have to mean one specific event. It can include chronic stress, emotional neglect, relationship wounds, or experiences that made you feel unsafe or unseen.

Trauma-informed therapy focuses on:

  • Safety and choice

  • Understanding your nervous system

  • Rebuilding trust with yourself

  • Moving forward without reliving the past

Faith-Based Therapy (Christian Counseling)

If your faith is an important part of your life, it makes sense that it would also be part of your healing.

Faith-based therapy offers a space where you don’t have to separate your spiritual life from your emotional and mental health. Instead, we can thoughtfully integrate both—helping you process what you’re going through while staying grounded in your values and beliefs.

This may include:

  • Exploring how your beliefs shape your thoughts, emotions, and relationships

  • Identifying areas where faith brings comfort or where it feels complicated or strained

  • Integrating spiritual practices such as prayer or scripture if and when you want to

  • Aligning your healing process with your values and sense of purpose

My approach is grounded in both clinical training and respect for your spiritual life.

Depending on your comfort level, we may:

  • Incorporate prayer into sessions

  • Reflect on scripture in a way that supports your healing

  • Explore how your relationship with God impacts your emotional experiences

  • Use therapeutic models (like CBT, ACT, or psychodynamic approaches) through a faith-informed lens

Postpartum Therapy

You may benefit from postpartum counseling if you are experiencing:

  • Postpartum anxiety or constant worry

  • Intrusive thoughts or postpartum OCD symptoms

  • Panic attacks or feeling emotionally overwhelmed

  • Postpartum depression or sadness

  • Guilt, shame, or feeling like you’re “not enough”

  • Difficulty bonding with your baby

  • Fear of something happening to your baby

  • Rage, irritability, or emotional numbness

  • Identity loss or difficulty adjusting to motherhood

  • Birth trauma or a difficult delivery experience

  • Relationship stress after having a baby

  • Sleep deprivation and emotional exhaustion

  • Difficulty asking for help or prioritizing yourself

  • Spiritual struggles or questioning your faith during motherhood

    You do not have to wait until things feel “bad enough” to seek support.
