Therapy for Women with Anxiety and Depression
In Asheville, Charlotte, Phoenix and virtually throughout North Carolina and Arizona
Go beyond surface-level fixes and find true lasting relief from depression and anxiety
You wear a brave face, and you’re the “we can do hard things” kind of person, but deep down, you’re exhausted from the energy it takes to just make it through the day
“Even when I get a good night’s sleep, I never feel rested—my mind never actually shuts off.”
“I constantly replay everything I’ve done wrong or said wrong, worrying about what might go wrong next, or questioning every decision I make.”
“Even little things, like replying to a text or making a phone call, feels so overwhelming that I just can’t. I feel like a failure”
“I always pull away from the people—not because I don’t want to spend time with them, I just don’t have the energy to explain or show up.”
“Even when I finally get a quiet moment, my mind won’t stop racing long enough for me to actually enjoy it.”
Hi, I’m Brooke
I help women struggling with anxiety and depression find lasting relief through holistic, evidence-based therapy designed to create real change and restore balance to your nervous system (and your life). I know real healing from chronic depression and anxiety is possible because I help people like you every day learn to quiet their racing minds and rediscover peace, using mind, body and spirit healing tools that offer actual relief, without adding to the overwhelm
How therapy for anxiety and depression can help
Go from waking up exhausted and defeated to starting your day with calm, confidence, and a sense of purpose.
Go from racing thoughts and constant overthinking to having a quiet mind and feeling at peace in the present moment.
Go from feeling disconnected from the people you love to enjoying deep, meaningful relationships, where you can truly show up as yourself.
Go from avoiding everyday tasks out of overwhelm to handling what needs to be done with ease and balance.
Go from feeling trapped in overwhelm and self-doubt to reconnecting with yourself and building a life that feels fulfilling and manageable.
Go from feeling like life is happening to you to feeling grounded, present, and capable of embracing the life you’ve always wanted.
Maybe you’ve tried therapy before but it didn’t really stick.
Or maybe, the thought of addressing the root caused of anxiety and depression feels overwhelming and you’re just not sure if it will work for you.
That is totally understandable.
It's completely understandable to feel hesitant about starting therapy, especially when you already feel overwhelmed. You might worry that revisiting painful memories will be too much, or perhaps you're uncertain if therapy can even truly make a difference for you.
Here’s how my approach is different:
We’ll partner together to go beyond surface-level coping to uncover and heal the root of your struggles and create meaningful, lasting change—not just temporary relief.
I integrate a blend of evidence-based approaches, using modalities that heal mind, body and spirit, to tailor therapy to your unique needs and goals.
Our work together will be a balance of challenge and support. I’ll encourage you to grow in ways that feel empowering, all while bringing warmth, kindness, and even humor into our sessions so you feel safe every step of the way.
And most importantly, this is a judgment-free space where you don’t have to “have it all figured out.” You can come exactly as you are, messy feelings and all.
Making the decision to begin therapy takes courage and strength, and the fact that you’re here speaks volumes.
Even if previous attempts didn’t bring the relief you hoped for, that doesn’t mean real, lasting change isn’t possible—we can get there together.

Feeling unsure? Let’s talk through your concerns
-
It's natural to fear that delving into past traumas might be too intense. In therapy, we will always move at a pace that feels safe for you. We won't rush into difficult topics or feelings until you're ready. The goal is to create a supportive environment where you feel in control of your healing journey.
-
It's common to doubt whether therapy can help, especially if you've tried it before without the desired results. Every therapeutic relationship is unique, and finding the right fit is crucial. Together, we'll explore approaches tailored to your specific needs, focusing on building trust and creating a space where you feel heard and understood.
-
Opening up about personal experiences can be daunting, especially if you're concerned about judgment. In therapy, you are met with empathy and without judgment. Your feelings and experiences are valid, and our work together is centered on understanding and supporting you.
-
It's a common misconception that therapy requires you to relive traumatic events. While understanding the impact of past experiences is part of the process, we focus on your current feelings and coping mechanisms. We work together to build resilience and find ways to move forward without dwelling on the past.
-
Therapy is a financial commitment, but it’s also an investment in your mental and emotional health. The patterns you’re working through-disconnection from yourself and others, overwhelm, numbing out the pain—cost you time, peace, and energy every single day. The healing and tools you’ll gain in therapy can transform not just your mental health but your relationships, work, and overall well-being.
