Trauma Therapy for Women in Cincinnati, Ohio
For the woman who holds everything together for everyone else…
but feels anxious, overwhelmed, and emotionally exhausted underneath.
You’re used to being the strong one.
The reliable one. The one who keeps going no matter what.
But there are parts of your story—anxiety, loss, people-pleasing, emotional pain—
that you’ve been carrying quietly for a long time.
This is a space where you don’t have to do that anymore.
Licensed to provide online therapy across Ohio, Florida, and Puerto Rico
You’ve learned how to keep going, no matter what.
Even through anxiety, loss, and experiences that left a mark.
From the outside, you’re functioning.
But inside, it doesn’t always feel that way.
There are parts of your story that still feel unresolved…
And you’ve gotten used to holding them on your own.
I’m not just here to analyze your patterns.
I’m here to sit with you in what’s real—because I understand, both professionally and personally, what it means to carry pain and still show up.
This is a space where you don’t have to do that anymore.
Can you relate?
You’re the strong one for everyone else… but inside:
You’re the one everyone leans on — but at night, your mind won’t turn off.
People describe you as calm and capable, but your chest feels tight more often than you admit.
You keep functioning and showing up, even when you feel emotionally depleted and overwhelmed.
With fertility or pregnancy loss:
You let yourself feel hopeful — and then brace for the crash when the cycle ends again.
You see a pregnancy announcement and feel your smile freeze before you can control it.
You carry grief that feels invisible because others don’t fully understand the depth of it.
In relationships:
You say yes automatically — then wish you had permitted yourself to say no.
You over-explain your boundaries so no one feels hurt or disappointed.
You feel responsible for other people’s moods and feel uncomfortable when someone is upset.
Your mind rarely rests — even when your body is exhausted.
If this is you, you don’t need another coping strategy.
You need support that actually understands the weight you’ve been carrying.
This is the work we do together —
Creating safety in your body.
Learning to set boundaries without guilt.
Making space for grief without being consumed by it.
And helping you trust yourself again.
Meet Dr. Ana Baratta, LPCC
Dr. Ana Baratta is a bilingual therapist who helps women in Ohio, Florida, and Puerto Rico work through anxiety, people pleasing, trauma, infertility, and pregnancy loss. Her approach is warm, direct, and tailored to your pace, integrating evidence-based therapy and EMDR when appropriate.
I help women who are used to being the strong one — but feel anxious, exhausted, and overwhelmed underneath it all.
Together, we gently work through the experiences that have kept you in survival mode. Our work is steady, compassionate, and honest. Some sessions focus on gently processing painful memories using EMDR. Other days, we’ll slow down your overthinking and practice setting boundaries in real time. You won’t just talk about change — we’ll practice it.
If you’re navigating infertility or pregnancy loss, you’ll find a space where your grief is deeply understood — not minimized, rushed, or explained away.
Our work focuses on helping you feel steadier in your body, more confident in your boundaries, and able to trust yourself again — so you can feel grounded, connected, and fully yourself.

Therapy (Telehealth)
If you’re the one who “keeps it together” but feels anxious, drained, or stuck in overthinking and people-pleasing, therapy with me is a steady, caring space where you don’t have to perform or rush. I’m warm and direct, and we move at your rhythm—slowing down when your system needs safety and leaning in when you’re ready for change.

![EMDR]()
EMDR Therapy
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based therapy that helps you process distressing experiences that still feel “stuck” in your mind and body. I use EMDR in an integrated, flexible way—interweaving EMDR reprocessing with talking therapy when it’s helpful.

Anxiety Therapy
Anxiety can feel like a mind that won’t turn off—overthinking, tension in your body, worst-case scenarios, and difficulty resting even when life is “fine.” We’ll focus on nervous-system regulation, practical coping skills, and deeper processing so your body learns to feel safe again and your thoughts feel less controlling.

Developmental & Relational Trauma
Developmental and relational trauma can come from early family-of-origin wounds or later attachment breaks (betrayal, abandonment). Therapy helps you understand the patterns that formed for survival, regulate your nervous system, and build healthier, more secure relationships.

Pregnancy Loss Therapy
Early pregnancy loss often brings a unique kind of grief—quiet, confusing, and sometimes minimized by others. Therapy gives you space to name what happened, process the emotional impact, and move through the sadness, anger, or guilt with compassion—without rushing your healing.

Fertility Therapy
Infertility can create chronic stress, heartbreak, and a deep sense of uncertainty—especially when you feel like your life is on hold. In therapy, we support emotional regulation, self-compassion, and coping with triggers, while making room for grief, hope, and the choices you want to make moving forward.
A More Intentional Way to Begin Therapy
This therapy package is a great option for those who are ready to commit to their healing process with more consistency and support.
4 Therapy Sessions (Ohio & Florida)
$ 471 (25% discount)
Why 4 sessions?
Because you’ve probably already tried to “figure it out” in your head… and it hasn’t been enough.
One session can give insight.
But insight alone doesn’t change how you feel or how you show up when it actually matters.
Four sessions give us the space to slow down, understand what’s really going on, and begin shifting it—so you’re not just aware of your patterns, but actually starting to move differently in your life.
A single session gives clarity.
Four sessions create momentum and real change.

-
I am a private-pay practice and do not bill insurance directly. If applicable, I can provide a superbill that you may submit to your insurance company for possible out-of-network reimbursement.
Working outside of insurance allows your therapy to stay focused on you—not on requirements or limitations set by a third party. This means we are not restricted by diagnoses, session limits, or pre-approved treatment plans, and your personal information remains more private. We can move at your pace, focus on what truly matters, and use approaches that best support your healing, rather than what insurance dictates. For clients who have out-of-network benefits, a superbill can be provided for possible reimbursement.
-
My current private-pay fees are:
Ohio & Florida: $150 per session
Puerto Rico: $100 per session.
I also offer a 4-session package with a 25% discount.
Out of Network Benefits Calculator
Out-of-network means I am not directly contracted with your insurance plan. Some clients may still be able to use their out-of-network benefits and receive partial reimbursement from their insurance company.
