If you feel like…

You’re caught in an endless tug-of-war. On one side, there’s a deep self-awareness—you see the patterns, recognize the triggers, and understand what’s holding you back. On the other side, following through feels impossible, as if an invisible force keeps pulling you off track. Perfectionism and procrastination seem to take turns running the show, leaving you feeling stuck and exhausted.

You pride yourself on being smart, maybe even an intellectual, yet it feels like you’re spinning your wheels. That lingering sense of shame and worthlessness reappears no matter how much progress you think you’ve made. Trauma from the past seems to have built a cage around your potential, keeping you from truly moving forward. It’s hard not to wonder—is this all there is to life?

Here’s how I can help…

The journey to healing is best traveled together, not alone. The pain you feel comes from deeply rooted beliefs, but here’s the truth—beliefs can change. Together, we’ll work to rewrite the narrative that has kept you trapped for so long.

Using approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Existential Psychology, and EMDR, we’ll uncover the patterns and experiences that have shaped your thinking. We’ll challenge the shame, address the trauma, and create space for you to feel genuinely good about yourself and your future.

You don’t have to keep fighting this battle alone. Let’s work together to break the cycle and help you step into the life you deserve. Your better self is waiting, and I’d be honored to walk this path with you.

If you feel like…

It’s like a never-ending treadmill, these racing thoughts. Every time I try to slow down, I’m right back at full speed, lost in memories I can’t escape. I don’t know if tonight will be any different, but I just wish I could sleep without my mind running through everything again.

Every day is harder than the last, flashback after flashback until I’m exhausted. I try not to think about it, but the questions are always there, pulling me under. Why doesn’t he love me? How could he do that? Am I ever enough for anyone? I feel like I’m sinking in an ocean of pain, trying to keep my head above water.

And tomorrow—tomorrow, I have to see people and pretend like it’s all okay. The thought alone makes me anxious. I wish I could just escape it all, even for a day. Maybe I’ll try going to the gym in the morning, though it’s hard to feel like it matters anymore. And then there’s my mom—why couldn’t I have been enough for her? Why didn’t she see me?

Most days, I feel invisible, even in a house full of people. I try to be proud of my daughter, to show her that she matters, but I feel like I’m failing her too. I just want to be the mother I never had. And yet here I am, still feeling so alone.

Here’s how I can help…

I want you to know: it doesn’t have to feel this way forever. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to go through it alone. I understand how overwhelming these feelings are, and together, we can work through them one step at a time.

My approach is centered on compassion and empathy, creating a safe space where you can unpack the weight you’ve been carrying. We’ll work on practical tools for managing anxiety and building self-worth and address the painful experiences that still hold you back. Change is possible, and with support, you can begin to see a path forward—to feel empowered, to find peace, and to reconnect with the parts of you that deserve healing.

You don’t have to carry this alone. Call today and let’s walk this path together

Therapist

Angela Fredrick MS, LPC

Angela is a licensed professional counselor who specializes in DBT and CBT for women, teens, and young adults struggling with relationships and anxiety, depression, and PTSD. Ages 16+ accepted

If you feel like…

No matter what you do, nothing ever feels quite right. You find yourself fixating on choices you’ve made or events that occurred, wondering why happiness seems just out of reach. Maybe you settled for a safe option, but now you feel stuck and frustrated, like life is passing you by. Self-doubt follows you everywhere, and even small decisions feel overwhelming. You feel stuck comparing yourself to others, but no matter how hard you try, it feels like you’ll never measure up. You want to break free from this cycle, but you’re not sure where to start.

And then there’s the weight of your expectations—the ones you place on yourself or the ones others expect of you. They pull you down, making it difficult to enjoy the present moment. You want to feel more confident, to finally quiet that critical voice in your head, but it all feels so hopeless.

Here’s how I can help…

I understand how challenging it can be to experience these feelings every day. Through a compassionate and practical approach, I can provide a supportive space where you can feel heard and understood. Using techniques from DBT and CBT, we’ll work together to help you build skills for managing overwhelming emotions, challenging unhelpful thought patterns, and finding balance in your life.

Whether it’s learning to live in the present moment, setting boundaries, or reconnecting with your strengths, I’ll guide you at a pace that feels right for you. My focus is on helping you feel empowered to make the changes you’ve been longing for, one step at a time. Together, we’ll explore what’s been holding you back and work toward creating the life you deserve.

You don’t have to face this alone. Let’s take this journey together and discover what’s possible for your future.
