It’s time to start actually liking your life.

Therapy for Anxiety, Trauma, and OCD in Little Rock, Arkansas

Now scheduling trauma intensives for summer

Your anxious overthinking is getting out of hand, and you’re tired of wondering if you’ll ever feel good enough.

By most standards, you’ve done everything you’re “supposed to”… the education, the career, the house & car, maybe a great partner and some kids or the cutest fur babies who ever lived.

You’re even pretty confident in the work you do, and maybe a little surprised you’ve made it this far in life.

But on the inside, you’ve been spinning out: obsessive overthinking, anxiety attacks, losing sleep, zero interest in sex. You’re either numbed out or have nervous energy practically coming out of your ears-

and you. are. over it.

If you’re like most of my clients, you…

  • are pretty sure you feel emotions more intensely than most people
  • have spent most of your life shoving down or ignoring unpleasant feelings
  • avoid feeling your feelings, worried you might drown if you do
  • lose precious time on mental disaster-planning or problem-solving unlikely ‘what-if’s
  • are an expert at making sure everyone else is okay, usually at the expense of your own wellbeing

You’re ready for things to change.

Hey! I’m Holly. I’m so glad you’re here.

I help high-achieving, overthinking neurodivergent millennials actually feel like they have their shit together. They make sense of their automatic responses, understand their emotions, and learn what to DO with them.

You’re the expert on you, and I’m the psychology nerd who geeks out on the ways emotions, thoughts, & brain/body stuff all work together to make people feel anxious, pissed, joyful- and all the feelings in between.

I bring to my work a unique combination of deep respect and a little irreverence that helps my clients feel at ease. This means you’re getting space to truly be yourself and bring up any topic weighing on your mind (Religion? Sex? Money? The latest run of Love is Blind that reminds you of tooo many exes? Bring it!).

We put our powers together, and in the comfort of my laid-back and cozy office, you can begin learning tools to drop the fight with your feelings & your busy mind, and start feeling more peace.

You can stop bouncing between “I’m not enough,” “I’m too much,” and “why can’t I just… {fill in the blank}??” Instead…

Start actually liking the life you’re living.

Manage Anxiety

It’s like your brain doesn’t have an “off” button. You can’t stop overthinking your biggest worries or replaying your cringiest memories. The anxiety spiral is REAL- let’s learn how to get you out of it.

Outsmart OCD

You’re obsessing over intrusive thoughts you didn’t even want to think, and losing precious time checking over & over and OVER or constantly seeking reassurance. Learn how to drop the fight with OCD, and get your life back.

Heal Old Trauma

At some point you realized that a lot of stuff that happened to you was actually really shitty, and not normal. You want to heal from your past and take control of defining yourself & your future.

After working with me, my clients begin to…

  • Recognize signs that an anxiety-panic spiral is coming on
  • Learn and use skills to help slow or even prevent spinning out
  • Spend more enjoyable time with friends and family
  • Take time for themselves without feeling guilty
  • Actually get a little quiet space in their brain
  • Revive their romantic and sexual interest with their partner
  • Feel more confident in social, family, and dating relationships

I have helped my clients with

Panic Attacks

You sometimes have episodes of difficulty breathing and think they might be panic attacks.

Perfectionism

You might take weeks making a decision for fear of making the wrong choice.  You worry excessively about getting a bad grade or letting someone down.

Low Self-Esteem

Your confidence in classes, at work, and in your relationships is quickly failing.

Imposter Syndrome

You work really hard in your classes or job but can never shake that feeling that you aren’t good enough.

Anxiety

Your stress levels are so high you worry that if one more thing happens, you may not be able to handle it all.

Codependency

Your relationships can be intense and lonely at the same time.

ERP and ICBT for OCD: what’s the difference?

Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP or ExRP) has long been considered the ‘gold standard’ of treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). However, Inference-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (ICBT) has a growing amount of research supporting its effectiveness for treating OCD as well. But what’s the difference? Here’s a somewhat simplified explanation. First, let’s clarify OCD. This is […]

Recipes

“Recipes” – or, “Food ideas for when your brain isn’t braining good.” I wanted to compile a list of easy food recipes for when you’re not feeling well, or your ADHD/sensory overload is going ham, etc. Please keep in mind, I’m not a nutritionist ~at all~ but it doesn’t take specific training to know that […]

the grief of leaving

Deciding to leave a faith community can really feel like you’re pulling the rug out from under yourself.    It can cause grief, a sense of loss – of the community, and also part of your identity.  Here are some things that have helped other people: Be patient with the process, and patient with yourself […]
