Virtual emdr therapy for women in nc with phobias and specific fears

PHOBIAS

When fear takes over your life, it’s exhausting.

You’re smart. You’re capable. Even if your mind thinks it’s “irrational”… your body reacts like the danger is real. Your heart races. Your stomach drops. You avoid, overthink, cancel plans, or plan every detail to feel “safe.”

You’re not dramatic. You’re not “too much.”
Your nervous system is stuck in protection mode.

We can work on this together.

Women come to me for support with fears like:

  • Driving, especially highways or bridges

  • Flying (from mild panic to full-out avoidance)

  • Medical and dental procedures

  • Needles or blood

  • Elevators

  • Vomit phobia (emetophobia)

  • Animal fears (dogs, spiders, etc.)

  • Fears tied to past trauma

  • Panic attacks connected to specific situations

If your fear isn’t listed, it’s still welcome.

How I Help?

I specialize in supporting women whose fears have started to limit their freedom, confidence, and daily life. My approach is gentle and empowering. We design a plan together to help you feel safe being exactly who you are.

My therapeutic style includes:

  • EMDR therapy to process the root of fear and reduce the intensity of your reactions

  • Somatic work to help your body learn it is safe

  • Exposure-informed support (paced, never pushy) so you can build confidence step by step

  • A calm, nonjudgmental space where you don’t have to pretend you’re fine

  • A structured plan so you always know where we’re going and why

We work at your pace — not the pace of the fear.

  • We start with gently understanding the fear.

    We will explore when the fear started, when it shows up now and how your body responds.

    We will use EMDR Resourcing to increase your self confidence and ability to tackle the fear.

  • EMDR Work

    We process the stuck places that are keeping your fear activated. This helps your body stop reacting like danger is everywhere.

  • Rebuilding Confidence

    We introduce gentle, supportive exposure work when you’re ready so you can practice feeling capable and grounded in real life.

  • Living life with more freedom!

    You’ll learn how to feel safe in your body again, trust yourself, and move through situations that once felt impossible.
