Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Women’s Counseling at Rising Calm Center
Women today carry more than ever before—career, family, relationships, faith, expectations. You show up for everyone else, but when the house gets quiet, you feel the exhaustion settle in. Somewhere between responsibility and love, you’ve lost space for you.
Maybe you’re battling anxiety or burnout, stretched thin by perfectionism, or feeling unseen in your marriage, motherhood, or work. You’re trying to hold it all together, but what you really crave is peace, purpose, and the freedom to breathe again.
At Rising Calm Center, we specialize in helping women reconnect with their strength and identity in Christ. Our Christian counselors blend biblical truth with proven therapeutic methods—including CBT, DBT, ACT, IFS, and somatic techniques—to help you:
• Set healthy boundaries without guilt
• Heal from past hurt and emotional exhaustion
• Rebuild confidence and self-worth
• Have wisdom in relationships, career, and calling
• Experience emotional and spiritual rest that lasts
We offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—because access to healing shouldn’t add more stress.
You don’t have to keep carrying it all alone. With the right support, you can move from survival to restoration—living with calm, clarity, and courage.
Call or email today for your FREE consultation and start walking toward the freedom and calm God intended for your life.

Renee Woodall
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Midlife and retirement can be full of both reflection and transition—roles shift, relationships evolve, and new questions emerge about purpose, identity, and meaning. You may be adjusting to an empty nest, navigating professional life, caring for aging parents, or experiencing the physical and emotional changes that come with menopause. Therapy offers a space to reconnect with yourself—to sort through the swirl of feelings, find steadiness, and clarify what you want this next chapter to hold. Together, we’ll explore what’s been painful or difficult, uncover your strengths, and help you build a life that feels balanced, enjoyable, and fulfilling.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
There are many systems in place that negatively impact women in the world, especially women of color. As I have navigated the world as a cisgender woman and have myself come into contact to the ways that systemic oppression impact me, it has informed my work with women to better understand these often invisible systems, how they coerce and pressure us for compliance and how women can push back against these patterns both individually and in community.

Friendly Psychology, LLC ~ Rachel W. Friendly, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Being a woman in the world is not easy! From the time we are born, we are socialized to be as small as possible: small appetites, small opinions, small voices, small bodies. We are to smile and take care of others. We are to never get angry and never complain. We are simultaneously not enough and too much, all at once - and how is that even possible? That's why I specialize in working with women's issues in therapy. If this sounds like you, let's work together to help you take your power back and build a life in which you get to be yourself, in all your expansiveness and beauty.

Amanda Shrekenhamer
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC
Helping mothers of young children find balance in their lives is a passion of mine. Whether you find yourself carrying more than your share of the “mental load”, or feel isolated as a new parent, I am here to support you and find ways to navigate these difficult times.
I also have experience supporting women who are experiencing infertility. Infertility can be a devastating experience. It can be a time of grief. It can also be a time of stress while navigating an expensive and complicated medical system. I meet you wherever you are in your journey.

Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
While my specialty is in pregnancy and postpartum, I support women navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, and emotional or identity concerns. Superwoman is no longer an ideal, but culture often tells us it is, leaving us feeling overwhelmed, unsure of priorities, or like we are unable to find balance in caring for others, work, and caring for ourselves. I provide a compassionate collaborative space to explore your goals, process emotions, and strengthen your understanding of yourself and what is most important to you. Together we can explore strategies for finding balance, making changes, and finding a sense of control in the chaos.

Dr Todd Giardina
Psychologist, PhD, Counseling Psychology
I feel it is different speaking to a male therapist about women's issues, specifically in that you then have to explain yourself more deeply. I cannot simply say "yes, I get it." By sharing the female experience aloud, it forces us to examine the difficulties and complexities from a different lens. I can offer more traditionally "masculine" viewpoints that can shift the way you approach or think about certain problems. So many women struggle with relationships with men in their life (Fathers, partners), that having a different type of open and supportive conversation with a man can be transformative. And, when there is distress in those relationships, we can role play and practice how the communication could go differently next time.

Washington's identity as the center of American political life creates a distinct mental health environment where therapists frequently address political burnout, moral injury, and the psychological toll of careers in government, advocacy, nonprofit work, and public policy. The city has a highly educated and driven professional demographic, and therapists specializing in perfectionism, ambition-related anxiety, and navigating high-stakes careers are consistently in demand. DC's large Black professional community and its diverse immigrant population from Africa, Central America, South Asia, and East Asia make culturally affirming and multilingual care especially important. MedStar Georgetown University Hospital and GW Hospital provide institutional mental health anchors alongside the city's dense and sophisticated independent therapy community.
