Counseling for Burnt-Out Professionals in Asheville

You work hard.  You have a gigantic heart and are super loyal and dependable.
You might be a… Community Leader, Advocate, Nurse, Teacher, Social Worker, Emergency First Responder, Activist, Therapist, Advocate, Caregiver, Entrepreneur, Healer, Body Worker, Veterinarian, non for profit employee, or just general do-gooder. 

Your passion shines brightly through your work and your dedication to your community and family. You are proud that you have committed your life to be of service to others but you are at the breaking point. You are SO good at being there for others but don’t do it for yourself and then end up empty, overwhelmed, and resentful. You don’t have the energy to go on like this.  Part of you knows that if you don't start REALLY taking care of yourself you will end up never having the time, energy, or focus to manifest your own dreams - which would be heartbreaking.  

"You owe yourself the love that you so freely give to other people."

How I work with Burnout Helpers in Asheville

After ten years of working in community mental health in the San Francisco Bay Area as both a therapist and clinical supervisor - I have developed well-honed skills to help people through secondary trauma, vicarious trauma, and burnout.  By using a collaborative people-centered approach and using powerful therapeutic tools like EMDR, I can help you get on the path of not just going through the motions of self-care, but learning to nourish your soul so that you can manifest your dreams.

Let's help you cultivate the same fierce compassion, that you have for others, for yourself. As we work together, you will:

  • Care for yourself as much as you care for others

  • Find ease

  • Feel grounded

  • Become empowered to say no

  • Find more joy

  • Have more time for yourself

  • See more possibilities for your life
