Stop Managing Overwhelm.
Start Solving It.
Neuroscience-based coaching for accomplished Christian women who want practical solutions, not more strategies.
You’re successful, but your brain won’t turn off. Whether you're juggling career demands, caregiving responsibilities, or supporting a high-performing teen, you’ve probably tried time management systems and stress-reduction techniques. They help temporarily, then you’re back where you started.
The problem isn't your schedule. It's how your brain processes stress.
I combine neuroscience with faith-based principles to target the root cause, not just the symptoms. No endless strategies or feel-good advice. Just practical tools that work because they're based on how your brain actually functions.

From Academic Research to Real-World Solutions
For 20+ years, I've studied how brains work - first in academic settings, then with clients.

Why I Do This:
PhD in Psychology → Saw gaps between theory and real-life stress
Clinical practice → Proved brain-based tools work better than willpower
Faith journey → Discovered Scripture fills gaps science can't address
What Matters Now:
Giving accomplished women and families practical tools to:
Rewire stress responses (using neuroscience)
Build mental strength and emotional regulation (for themselves and their teens)
Reconnect to purpose (with faith-based principles)

Why Faith Makes the Neuroscience More Effective
When you combine brain-based strategies with faith principles, you get better results. Faith provides the foundation for sustainable change, while neuroscience provides the practical implementation methods.
This isn't theoretical. It's a practical approach that addresses both the how and the why of transformation. You get the best of both worlds: evidence-based techniques grounded in timeless wisdom.
What others are saying
Breaking Through Mental Blocks
“I have to admit, when I first started working with Dr. Gidenko, some of the mindset shifts were challenging, to say the least. And that makes perfect sense when you learn that your brain has been wired a certain way for so long. But she was always there, with just the right guidance to help me push through. The clarity and confidence I gained have been life-changing. I finally took the steps I’d been putting off for years, and I couldn’t be happier with where I am now.”
- Jenny M.
Helping parents and teens shift out of emotional reactivity and into grounded thinking, even when life doesn’t let up.
“For so long, I thought peace would come once the people around me changed or my circumstances got easier. But Dr. Gidenko helped me truly embrace and embody a new way of thinking. Now, I am in control of my emotions, regardless of what’s happening around me, and that has made all the difference in every area of my life.”
- Kim B.
A teen’s story of transformation through mindset tools that built confidence, calm, and a new sense of purpose.
"Moving to a new country is hard, and honestly, I wasn’t thrilled when my mom signed me up to work with Dr. Gidenko. I didn’t really get why I needed it at first, but looking back, it was one of the best things she could have done for me. The skills I picked up, like managing stress, building confidence, and actually believing in my own potential, have been invaluable. Now that I’m almost done with college and about to take on the real world, I can see how much those sessions shaped me. I’m way more prepared than I thought I’d be, and I’m genuinely grateful for that."
- Ana R.
