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.

Dr. Cheryl D La Rotta
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Ph.D, LMHC
Many women move through the world with a 'hidden' soundtrack of perfectionism and self-sacrifice. I specialize in helping women break free from the subconscious scripts of inadequacy and 'good girl' conditioning that fuel anxiety and depression. Utilizing Dr.-level clinical insight and EMDR, we target the core negative beliefs formed in childhood or through difficult relationships. This is a space for women ready to trade people-pleasing for authentic power, replacing chronic stress with a resilient, grounded sense of self-worth.

Jenelle N. Ashley
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, MCAP, CCTP
As women we find that as we age we begin to experience unique changes that are specific to our gender. Hormonal changes bring about many different symptoms such as depression and anxiety. I assist my patients by focusing on psychoeducation and utilizing CBT approaches to address these symptoms. Together we will work on a plan to get you back on track to feeling like yourself again.

Jennifer Cain
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Some problems are stressors are unique to women or affect women in ways that are different than men. For instance, issues related to role expectations and power differentials at home and in the workplace can add stress. Most women are balancing multiple roles, such as parenting, working, managing a household, and caring for aging parents. It can help to talk through these things with another woman, allowing you to receive support and process through these issues and what they mean for you.

Gainesville is home to the University of Florida, one of the largest universities in the United States by enrollment, and the city's character and mental health landscape are overwhelmingly shaped by this—a huge, young student population with significant academic, social, and identity-related mental health needs, supported by one of Florida's most comprehensive university counseling systems. UF Health Shands Hospital provides one of the state's strongest behavioral health services, making Gainesville an important regional resource for psychiatric care across north Florida. The population dynamic creates a city that is both progressive and college-town oriented, surrounded by a more rural north Florida context, and therapists in Gainesville work across a wide range of populations and presenting concerns. Common therapy concerns include academic stress, identity development, anxiety, substance use, young adult life transitions, and the particular challenges of a college community navigating mental health support often for the first time.
