Women’s Workshops

Overwhelmed and weary?

There’s another way.

It is possible to live in freedom.

Rooted and Renewing is grounded in the truth of God’s word. We use proven counseling techniques to help you heal, grow, and live with greater peace and purpose.

Begin the Journey

So, we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day.

— 2 Corinthians 4:16

Feeling weary and overwhelmed by life’s demands?

Do you feel as though you have nothing left to give?

Are you running on empty and need a place to rest and find strength?

A Healing Journey Toward Freedom, Identity, and Intimacy in Christ

Rooted and Renewing is a biblically-based growth workshop series for women, created to deepen your spiritual roots, nurture closer relationships, and experience ongoing renewal through the love and grace of Jesus Christ.

Rooted in scripture and drawing from neuroscience, experiential practices, and authentic group connection, this journey invites you into a sacred space of transformation.

Whether you’re feeling stuck in old patterns with yourself or others, hungry for deeper intimacy with God, or longing to live with more clarity and connection, you are not alone.
 Healing is personal, but it’s never just for you.

As you grow in freedom, the effects reach every corner of your life - your marriage, your parenting, your friendships, even generational patterns.

What God heals in you becomes a gift to those around you.


Healing is possible. 
Freedom is real. 
This is where your renewal begins.

What to Expect

Meet Anne & Elizabeth, your facilitators.

We are two women who love the Lord and who love seeing other women walk in the fullness and freedom that only He can provide. We are honored to come alongside you during your time of personal transformation.

  • Licensed Professional Counselor

    With over three decades of experience in the health and wellness industry, Anne Ethier, LPC, has been dedicated to empowering individuals and couples on their journey toward healing and growth. Since 2006, she has operated a private practice in Athens, GA, where her compassionate approach focuses on addiction, eating disorders, depression, and anxiety-issues often rooted in trauma.

    Anne is passionate about helping clients remember that they are a work in progress while discovering more freedom and flourishing in their relationships in a flawed and often weary world. She works not only with individuals but also with couples who long for deeper bonds of trust and emotional safety.

    Her unique blend of body-oriented therapy and cognitive understanding of psychotherapy allows her to address the complex interplay between physical symptoms and emotional well-being.

    Trained early in her career as a massage therapist and fitness instructor, Anne utilizes present-moment awareness as a gateway to deeper psychological understanding, drawing from her studies in Hakomi therapy. She is also trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT), the gold standard for couples therapy, whose experiential and attachment-based approach integrates naturally with her body-centered work.

    Since 2014, Anne has been committed to elevating the field of counseling by offering and teaching continuing education courses for fellow counselors, sharing her expertise and insights with others in the profession.

    Anne's holistic approach fosters hope and healing, encouraging clients to embrace their journey toward a more fulfilling life.

    Elizabeth is passionate about helping individuals and organizations grow through meaningful connection and strategic support.

    In her current coaching practice, she partners with clients to develop personalized strategies aligned with their goals—whether navigating career transitions, strengthening leadership skills, or enhancing team dynamics.
