Support to Help You Breathe Again

At Climbing Hills Counseling, I offer virtual therapy for ambitious women and overwhelmed moms in North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Idaho, and Vermont.

I support clients navigating anxiety, burnout, boundary fatigue, people pleasing, perfectionism, and the mental load that comes with managing so many roles.

Using a blend of talk therapy and EMDR, we go beyond managing symptoms and begin addressing what is driving these patterns at a deeper level. Therapy becomes a steady place to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with yourself.

My approach integrates Person Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and EMDR. We start by creating a space that feels grounded and supportive, where you can step out of the role of holding everything together and begin to focus on your own needs. From there, we look at how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected, especially the patterns shaped by self-doubt and the inner critic. As insight builds, EMDR helps process past experiences that continue to influence how you respond in the present, so triggers feel less intense, and you can move through life with more ease.

Along the way, we clarify what matters most to you and support you in making decisions that feel aligned. This work is not just about understanding yourself better, but about experiencing real shifts in how you feel, respond, and show up in your life.

All sessions are held virtually via a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform for women in North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Idaho, and Vermont. Sessions are $225 for 50 minutes. I am in-network with Aetna, and private pay with super bills are available.

Cancellations or rescheduling must be completed at least 72 hours in advance to avoid the full session fee.

Therapy with me is collaborative, steady, and focused on helping you feel more grounded, clear, and in control. Together, we strengthen boundaries, shift unhelpful patterns, regulate your nervous system, and process what has been keeping you stuck.

If you are ready to feel more supported and more like yourself again, you can schedule an intake appointment.
