Therapy for Healthcare Professionals & Helpers

A steady space for helpers who are used to being the strong ones.

The Internal Pressure to Hold It All Together

Healthcare culture often rewards hustle and endurance. Many professionals develop internal drivers that say:

  • “Be strong.”

  • “Don’t make it about you.”

  • “Keep moving.”

  • “Other people have it worse.”

There may be parts of you that over-function, anticipate every possible problem, or carry a constant sense of responsibility. There may also be parts that feel tired, angry, disillusioned, or quietly burnt out. In our work together, we create space for both.

You are trained to stay calm when things aren’t.  You hold space for crisis and make decisions quickly. You support people through life-changing moments, sometimes never to see them again. You function inside systems that are strained, under-resourced, and emotionally intense.

And most days, you just keep going. But over time, the weight accumulates and gets harder to carry. Before long you’re on the verge of burnout and questioning why you even do this work in the first place.

You may notice:

  • Emotional exhaustion

  • Irritability or numbness

  • Difficulty turning your brain off

  • Moral distress

  • Feeling responsible for outcomes you can’t control

  • Questioning whether you’re “doing enough”
