Anxiety therapy for women in nc
ANXIETY
virtual therapy for women in nc experiencing anxiety
Anxiety doesn’t always look dramatic. Sometimes it’s the quiet hum under everything — the tight chest, the racing thoughts, the constant planning so nothing slips. It’s being the strong one all day and falling apart the moment you’re finally alone. It’s the humor, the perfectionism, the “I’m fine” that hides how overwhelmed you actually feel.
If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone — and you’re not “too much.” You’re a woman who’s been carrying more than anyone realizes.
How Anxiety Shows Up (Even When You Hide It Well)
Maybe you feel on edge for no clear reason. Maybe your mind goes straight to the worst-case scenario, or you struggle to relax even when nothing is wrong. You might feel shame about how anxious you are, or frustration that you can’t just “calm down.”
Or maybe you’re the high-functioning type; organized, capable, doing it all. All the while, you quietly feel like an emotional “organized mess” underneath.
As women we are conditioned from birth to be helpful, pleasant, strong, and emotionally responsible for others.
Your anxiety makes sense. It came from somewhere.
You might be experiencing:
Constant worry or overthinking
Racing thoughts that won’t slow down
Trouble sleeping or feeling rested
Panic or sudden waves of overwhelm
Guilt, shame, or feeling like you’re “too much”
A tight chest, knots in your stomach, or tension everywhere
Feeling like you’re carrying more than anyone realizes
Using humor or perfectionism to keep the anxiety invisible
Being “high-functioning” but internally burnt out
You’re not dramatic.
You’re not broken.
Your nervous system is asking for support.
How I Help Women Untangle Anxiety?
My approach is laid-back, warm, and deeply human-first. No pressure to be perfect, no judgment, and no forcing you to “just breathe.” We talk honestly and create space for the parts of you that have been holding it all together.
Together, we’ll understand what’s driving your anxiety, untangle the patterns that keep you stuck, and teach your nervous system how to feel safer and more grounded. You’ll learn to finally feel more like yourself again and say goodbye to the version of you running in survival mode.
This isn’t about coping your way through anxiety. It’s about healing the root.
How EMDR helps anxiety?
EMDR works by healing the stuck memories, beliefs, or experiences fueling your anxiety.
It helps your brain:
Release old emotional patterns
Decrease reactivity
Feel safer and more regulated
Stop looping the same negative thoughts
Find relief that actually lasts
If you’ve tried talk therapy or coping skills but still feel anxious, EMDR may be what gets you unstuck.
