Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
We know the pains and frustrations of anxiety firsthand: What it feels like when your chest tightens, your mind races, and sleep feels miles away. Maybe you’ve tried thinking positive, pushing through, or even meditation—but the fear keeps coming back. You’re not broken. You’re just tired of living in fight-or-flight.
At Rising Calm Center, we don’t just manage symptoms—we help you understand what anxiety is trying to say. Our Christian counselors blend nervous-system regulation with faith-rooted practices so you can heal from the inside out, learning to feel safe in your body and secure in God’s peace again.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.
Using evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, ACT, and somatic tools—paired with biblical truth and prayerful reflection—we guide you to:
• Release chronic tension and racing thoughts
• Learn grounding and breath techniques for moments of panic
• Heal the roots of fear, shame, and control
• Build confidence and clarity in decision-making
• Strengthen your faith so fear no longer has the final say
You’ll discover how to live with calm in your body, courage in your heart, and trust in God’s steady presence—no longer ruled by anxiety, but guided by peace.

Vickie Bhatia
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Anxiety can show up in lots of different ways. Sometimes it's visible panic, but it can also be a constant low-level overfunctioning: the racing thoughts at 2am, the inability to relax even when there's nothing urgent, the sense that something bad will happen if you stop managing everything. I help clients understand what's driving their anxiety and build real tools to interrupt it, rather than just talking around it session after session.

Amber McKinney-Morgan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
Anxiety can feel overwhelming—like your mind won’t slow down or your body is always bracing for something. I help clients understand the root of their anxiety while building practical tools to regulate their nervous system and shift unhelpful thought patterns. Using approaches like EMDR, somatic work, and parts-based therapy, we work together to create a sense of safety, clarity, and confidence so anxiety no longer runs the show.
