Therapy for Caregiver Stress & Burnout
The Ones Taking Care Deserve Care Too
You’re The One Everyone Needs
You’re the one who always shows up.
You’re managing medications, appointments, meals, emotions—not just your own. Whether you're caring for a child, partner, parent, or client, the toll adds up. Especially when you're holding it all without much space to fall apart.
Maybe you're resentful of what caregiving has taken from you—your time, your identity, your health. Maybe you feel guilty because you're angry. You might be grieving someone who’s still here, mourning the shape your life once held—and facing losses that have no clear ending.
Maybe you don’t even call it caregiving. Maybe you call it being a parent, a daughter, a spouse. You just know you’re exhausted in a way that rest doesn’t fix.
Somewhere along the way, you may have learned that your needs don’t matter as much. That it’s your job to keep everything going. That if things are falling apart, it must be your fault—or your responsibility to fix.
Therapy can be a place to lay some of that down. A place where you don’t have to be the strong one, the calm one, the one who holds it all together.
In our work together, we might explore how caregiving has shaped your sense of self—how it’s asked you to override your limits, disconnect from your body, or silence your own grief.
We’ll make space for what you’ve been carrying, and begin the slow work of reconnecting with your needs, your boundaries, your enough-ness.
What I’ve Learned From Listening
Most caregivers don’t want to be praised. They want to be understood. They want someone to notice how much they’re holding, how long they’ve been holding it, and how invisible it’s started to feel.
Because caregiving can stretch your heart and hollow you out at the same time. It’s possible to love someone dearly and still long for space. And showing up every day doesn’t mean you aren’t breaking down a little on the inside.
I’ve learned how hard it is to ask for help when you’re the one others rely on—and how much relief can come from being in a space where you get to be the one held. Even in the absence of solutions, therapy can offer one essential thing: a place to be witnessed.

Philosophy of Care
Caregiving is layered, complex, and often invisible to the outside world. This work creates space to name what it’s cost—emotionally, physically, spiritually—and to tend to what’s been buried beneath constant responsibility. Therapy offers a place where your needs are no longer an afterthought, and where being witnessed is the whole point.
