You're Exhausted from Trying to Be Perfect All the Time
The constant pressure feels unbearable. Every morning, you wake up with that familiar knot in your stomach, already running through today's impossible to-do list. Your mind races with thoughts about what you ate yesterday, what you'll eat today, and how you'll manage to get everything done while maintaining the facade that everything is fine.
You've achieved so much professionally and academically, yet inside you feel like you're barely holding it together. The anxiety that once pushed you to excel now feels suffocating. Maybe your relationship with food has become increasingly complicated—using restriction or control to manage the chaos in your mind. Perhaps intrusive thoughts have started taking over, demanding rituals that you know don't make logical sense but feel impossible to resist.
The truth is, you're not alone in this struggle, and there's a faster path to healing than you might imagine.
When Traditional Weekly Therapy Isn't Enough
You might have tried therapy before. Maybe you sat across from well-meaning therapists who didn't really understand the complexity of what you're experiencing. They treated your anxiety as one issue, your eating concerns as another, and never grasped how these struggles interweave with past trauma or unique pressures you face.
Weekly sessions helped somewhat, but progress felt painfully slow. The idea of spending months or years in traditional therapy while your symptoms continue affecting your daily life feels overwhelming.
This is exactly why I created a different approach—one that honors the interconnected nature of your struggles and provides concentrated support you deserve.
Welcome to Live Mindfully Psychotherapy
My name is Kelsey Fyffe, and I am so glad you’re here!
I'm a licensed therapist specializing in the complex intersection of anxiety, OCD, eating disorders, and trauma. From my virtual practice, I work with accomplished women throughout Texas who are ready to break free from perfectionism, self-criticism, and shame.
My approach is different because I understand your struggles don't exist in isolation. The anxiety driving your perfectionism might also fuel disordered eating patterns. Past trauma might manifest as both OCD symptoms and relationship difficulties. Your athletic or dance background might complicate your relationship with your body in ways general therapists simply don't comprehend.
Through specialized intensive therapy sessions and comprehensive virtual treatment, I help you address all aspects of your experience in an integrated, efficient way.
The Power of Intensive Therapy: Accelerated Healing for Busy Women
EMDR Intensives: Heal Trauma in Days, Not Years
Imagine walking into Friday feeling burdened by past trauma and walking out Sunday with genuine peace and resolution. This is the reality of EMDR intensive therapy.
Unlike traditional weekly EMDR sessions that take months to process a single trauma, intensives allow us to work through multiple traumatic memories comprehensively over a concentrated period. During our 90-minute planning session, we'll thoroughly explore your trauma history and current symptoms. You'll receive a customized intensive workbook designed specifically for your needs, with essential coping skills to practice before we begin.
The intensive typically spans 2-3 days, with extended sessions maintaining therapeutic momentum. Instead of losing progress between weekly appointments, we stay engaged in the healing process, moving through traumatic memories while you're in a resourced, supported state. This concentrated approach means experiencing significant relief without putting your life on hold for months.
For women juggling demanding careers and personal responsibilities, EMDR intensives offer practical healing that respects both your time and your need for comprehensive treatment.
OCD Intensives: Break Free from the Obsessive Cycle
Living with OCD while maintaining a successful career feels impossible. Intrusive thoughts interrupt important meetings. Compulsions eat away at productivity. You might spend hours daily managing symptoms others don't even know exist.
OCD intensives provide concentrated treatment using evidence-based approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) combined with exposure and response prevention. Rather than spending months building up to challenging exposures in weekly therapy, intensives create momentum quickly. We practice real-world exposures, process arising anxiety, and build new response patterns within a supportive, extended therapeutic container.
During your intensive, we'll start with the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS) assessment to understand your specific symptoms. I create a customized treatment plan addressing your unique obsession and compulsion patterns. We'll work together intensively to challenge OCD's rules, developing new ways of responding to intrusive thoughts without compulsions.
The concentrated nature means seeing significant symptom reduction in days rather than months, returning you to living life instead of being controlled by OCD.
