Therapy For People Who Carry A Lot

Online therapy for adults in Washington State navigating anxiety, burnout, grief, and major life transitions.

You’re the one others rely on — at work, in your family, in your relationships. But underneath it all, you’re overwhelmed, stretched thin and quietly struggling.

If This Sounds Familiar, You’re in the Right Place

Many of the people who find their way here are used to being the strong, dependable one— the person others turn to when things get tough. 

On the outside, you’re solid, steady and hold it all together. On the inside, you might feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure how long you can keep up this pace.

You may notice:

  • You’re constantly “on,” but are exhausted underneath it

  • Find it difficult to slow down or prioritize yourself

  • You’re feeling on edge, overthinking things or struggling to fully relax

  • You carry responsibility for others, often at your own expense

  • You want things to feel different but aren’t sure how to get there.

If sounds familiar, you’re not alone and you don’t have to keep carrying it this way.

Hi, I’m Christine

I’m a licensed therapist and real human who knows life can feel heavy, confusing, and downright messy at times.

Before starting Mindful Insights, I spent years in hospitals, emergency rooms and in hospice care — supporting people through some of the hardest moments of their lives. That experience shaped how I show up as a therapist. I understand the pressure of being the one others rely on… and how easy it is to lose yourself in the process.

My work integrates various therapeutic techniques to help you better understand the patterns shaping your stress, relationships and emotional experience. Together we’ll slow down, explore what’s happening beneath the surface and build steadiness that lasts beyond therapy sessions. 

The People I Work with Most Often

I work with people experiencing a broad range of concerns, but one common thread is that most of my client’s carry a lot of responsibility in one form or another.

I specialize in working with healthcare workers, family caregivers, high-achievers and those navigating major life transitions. But I also see people experiencing:

  • Anxiety and Chronic Stress

  • Depression and Negative Self-Talk

  • Grief and Loss

  • Major Life Transitions

  • Relationship, family and communication difficulties

  • High functioning overwhelm

Not sure where you fit? That’s okay. You don’t have to fall into a specific category or identify with a particular group to work with me. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck or ready for things to feel different, that’s enough!

Ready to Take the Next Step?

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, but getting started is actually pretty simple.

If you think we might be a good fit, reach out to schedule a free 15-minute consultation or an initial session.

Our first conversation is a chance to talk through what’s been going on, what you’re hoping for, and whether working together feels like a good fit.

From there, we’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable and managed for you.

You don’t have to have everything figured out to start. Reaching out is enough.
