I work with the healers and helpers who not only have seen the worst in their work, but also have a personal history of trauma. So many in the healing and helping professions have painful backgrounds that have fueled their fire to care for others. Healers experience some of the worst and most rampant burnout which can stem from a number of places including vicarious trauma and having past traumas triggered by clients, systems, and the overall work. Move from an inner place of fear, imposter syndrome and co-dependency to a place of inner security.

Life can be hard. When you are struggling with anxiety, depression, or trauma it can feel overwhelming when you are trying to manage life. We get focused on getting through the day, trying to survive, and forget to live. Therapy can be an opportunity to explore what it looks like to live life well, even when the moment is hard.
