Therapy For People Who Carry A Lot
You’re the one who shows up, holds it all together, and keeps things moving— at work, at home, and for everyone around you.
But underneath it all, you’re overwhelmed, stretched thin and quietly struggling.
Does this sound like you?
You are used to being the strong, dependable one— the person others turn to when things get tough. You’re steady, capable and the person people know they can count on to get things done. From the outside, it probably looks like you’ve got everything figured out.
But on the inside things feel much different. You feel overwhelmed, disconnected, and unsure how long you can keep up this pace. You’re constantly “on,” and exhausted and underneath it all you:
Find it difficult to slow down or prioritize yourself
Feel on edge, overthink things and struggle to fully relax
Carry responsibility for others, often at your own expense
You’ve figured out how to manage a lot on your own. It’s hard to slow down. Hard to know what you actually need. And even harder to give yourself permission to take up space when you’re so used to taking care of everyone else.
Part of you knows something needs to change but you’re not sure how to get there. If this sounds familiar, then you’re in the right place. You are not alone and you don’t have to keep carrying it this way.
With experience in healthcare, trauma and complex life decisions, I specialize in supporting people navigating:
Anxiety & Chronic Stress
Perfectionism
Caregiver Fatigue
Burnout & Morale Injury
Responsibility Overload
People Pleasing
Depression & Negative Self Talk
Major Life Transitions
Healthcare & Serious Illness
Relationships & Boundaries

Meet Christine
RECOVERING OVERACHIEVER | LICENSED THERAPIST | UNAPOLOGETICALLY BOUNDARIED
Hi there, I’m Christine.
I’m a therapist, but more importantly, I’m a real person you can talk to when things feel like a lot.
If you’re here, there’s probably a lot on your plate and not a lot of space where you get to just be a person in it.
That’s what this is for.
A place where you don’t have to filter, explain yourself perfectly, or worry about how you’re coming across. Just a real conversation, at your pace.
“Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen.” —Brene Brown
People I Often Work With
All of my clients are navigating different challenges, but there’s a common thread between them: they all carry a lot of responsibility in one form or another.
With a background in healthcare, I often support individuals whose lives intersect with the medical system— whether it’s through their work, their own health, or caring for someone they love.
Many of my clients are also high-capacity professionals and leaders who are used to managing complex demands, making decisions under pressure, and leading others through change and uncertainty.
Truthfully though, most people don’t fit neatly into one category. They just know something feels heavier than it should.

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.
