Thoughtful Therapy for Women Navigating Stress, Transitions, and Emotional Overload
Many women who seek therapy are capable, educated, and responsible—yet feel persistently anxious, emotionally drained, or disconnected despite managing life well on the surface. You may be navigating a demanding career, complex relationships, caregiving roles, or a season of transition and find that your usual ways of coping are no longer enough.
I provide counseling for women who want a calm, professional, and evidence-based approach—therapy that respects intelligence, life experience, and emotional complexity.
Concerns Commonly Addressed in Women’s Counseling
Women seek therapy for many reasons, including:
- Anxiety, chronic stress, and emotional overwhelm
- Burnout, perfectionism, and high internal pressure
- Life transitions (career changes, divorce, caregiving, empty nest)
- Relationship challenges or patterns that feel difficult to change
- Grief, loss, or unresolved emotional pain
- Desire for greater clarity, balance, and self-trust
Therapy offers a space to slow down, understand what is happening beneath the surface, and develop healthier, more sustainable ways of relating—to yourself and to others.
An Experienced, Evidence-Based Approach
With over 30 years of clinical experience, my work with women is collaborative, thoughtful, and grounded in evidence-based practice. I draw from:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Attachment-based and relational approaches
- Somatic and neuroscience-informed methods
Therapy is paced intentionally, with attention to both symptom relief and deeper understanding. The goal is meaningful, lasting change—not quick fixes or one-size-fits-all solutions.
Faith-Informed Counseling (Available by Request)
Some women want therapy that is clinically strong and also consistent with their Christian faith; others prefer therapy that is fully faith-neutral. I offer faith-informed counseling when requested, always guided by your preferences and goals.
I bring extensive training and experience in faith-integrated care, including 17 years serving in the counseling ministry of Southeast Christian Church. During that time, I worked with individuals and couples and developed a strong foundation in integrating psychological care with Christian faith in a thoughtful, responsible, and clinically sound way.
Here is more information about my approach: Christian and Faith-Informed Counseling. and an article about how faith-informed therapy can be utilized to address anxiety: Faith-Informed Therapy for Anxiety.
Faith is never assumed, imposed, or required. If you want faith to be part of your therapy, it can be integrated respectfully. If you do not, therapy remains fully focused on your emotional, relational, and psychological goals.
What Women Often Appreciate About This Work
