You’re Not Broken.

You’re Burned Out.

Therapy for overwhelmed women and moms who are holding everything together - while quietly running on empty.

Serving women and moms in Marietta and across Georgia.

You’ve been holding it together for everyone else.

You’re the one who remembers the appointments.
You manage the logistics.
You keep the family running.

You love your people.

But lately, everything feels heavier.

You’re more irritable than you want to be.
You feel stretched thin.
You snap — and then feel guilty about it.
You wonder why things that used to feel manageable now feel overwhelming.

You don’t think of yourself as someone who “needs therapy.”

You just know you’re exhausted.

What therapy here feels like.

It’s not about fixing you.

It’s about helping your nervous system settle.
Untangling the guilt that keeps you stuck.
Making space for your own needs without everything falling apart.

We move at a pace that respects your real life.

You don’t have to fall apart to deserve support.
You don’t have to justify how hard this feels.
You don’t have to carry it alone.

Slowly, you begin to feel steadier.
Clearer.
More like yourself again.

Meet Elizabeth

I know firsthand how heavy life can feel when you’re the one holding everything together.

I created Rise Gently Therapy for capable, high-functioning women who are quietly exhausted — the ones who don’t fall apart, but feel like they might.

Therapy here is steady, collaborative, and grounded in real life. We move at your pace, toward clarity, calm, and self-trust.

You don’t have to carry it alone.

Elizabeth Ainsworth, MSW, therapist and founder of Rise Gently Therapy in Marietta, GA, specializing in anxiety, burnout, and support for overwhelmed women and caregivers.

How I Can Support You

Starting therapy doesn’t have to feel overwhelming.

We begin with a brief consultation — a chance to ask questions, talk through what’s feeling heavy, and see if we’re a good fit.

If it feels right, we schedule your first session and move at a pace that respects your real life.

Let’s Talk

If something here resonates, the next step is simple.

We start with a brief, 15-minute consultation — a chance to ask questions, talk through what’s feeling heavy, and see if we’re a good fit.

No pressure. No obligation.
