Calma Therapy
Thoughtful, research-informed care for women navigating anxiety, burnout, and life transitions.
At Calma, therapy is a collaborative process rooted in research and shaped by your lived experience. It’s a space to slow down, understand your patterns, and build tools that support you in daily life.
This work is steady. Intentional. Grounded in empathy and evidence.
How We Work
-
Virtual, one-on-one therapy for women seeking support with anxiety, burnout, boundaries, relationship challenges, and life transitions.
Sessions are tailored to your goals and paced intentionally. Together, we focus on insight, emotional regulation, and practical tools you can apply in everyday life.
-
Our work is informed by trauma-aware and relational frameworks that consider attachment patterns, nervous system responses, and early relational experiences.
Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, we explore the underlying patterns shaping how you relate to yourself and others. The goal is not just coping, but meaningful, sustainable change.

Beyond the Therapy Room
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Therapy can be supportive during periods of change, stress, or emotional overwhelm, even if nothing feels “wrong.” It offers a dedicated space to slow down, reflect, and gain insight as you navigate life.
People seek therapy for many reasons — life transitions, relationship changes, burnout, shifting roles, or simply wanting support during seasons that feel both meaningful and overwhelming.
You don’t have to wait for a breaking point to ask for support.
-
The first session is a time to get oriented, talk about what brings you to therapy, and begin co-creating goals together. There’s no pressure to have everything figured out. This is a supportive space to meet you where you are.
-
Just yourself. A private, quiet space for your session is helpful. If you’d like, you can bring questions or notes, but there’s no requirement to prepare ahead of time.
-
Therapy at Calma is integrative and individualized. Rather than using a one size fits all approach, sessions are tailored to your needs, goals, and lived experiences.
My work is informed by evidence based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), DBT informed skills, attachment based and relational work, mindfulness based practices, and trauma informed care. Therapy is also culturally responsive and attentive to the ways identity, background, and life context shape your experience.
The focus is always on meeting you where you are and adjusting the approach as you grow.
