Left untreated, burnout and anxiety can impact every area of your life—your health, your relationships, your work, and your sense of self. They don’t go away by ignoring them. But with the right support, healing is possible—and therapy can be the turning point.
Definitely. EMDR works by reprocessing stuck memories, beliefs, and emotional blocks that often fuel both anxiety and burnout. If you’re feeling like you’re running on fumes or reacting to old patterns, EMDR can help your brain and body finally let go and reset.
Yes—online therapy is just as effective as in-person when done with intention. In fact, many of my clients find it more convenient and comfortable. Whether we’re using CBT, EMDR, or somatic tools, online therapy allows you to get the support you need from the safety of your own space.
When your nervous system is dysregulated, you swing between anxiety, numbness, and emotional shutdown. It impacts your mood, relationships, sleep, and even digestion. Understanding how your body reacts to stress is key to healing—and in therapy, we use tools to restore balance and safety within the body.
We start with small, practical tools: breathwork, grounding, movement, and emotional regulation techniques. But deeper healing happens when we explore the roots of your overwhelm. You don’t need to manage it alone—therapy helps you build safety, capacity, and confidence in yourself again.
This is a classic sign of nervous system dysregulation. You’re emotionally and physically exhausted—but your system is stuck in high alert. This happens when chronic stress or trauma keeps your body in survival mode. In therapy, we focus on helping your nervous system settle and learn that it’s safe to rest.
Unprocessed trauma can leave the nervous system stuck in “fight, flight, or freeze.” That means even long after the event, your brain may still scan for danger—leading to chronic anxiety. Therapy, especially modalities like EMDR and somatic work, helps reprocess these stuck patterns so you can finally feel safe again.
Chronic anxiety often has roots in the nervous system. Even if there’s no clear trigger, your body may still be in a state of hypervigilance due to unresolved stress, trauma, or chronic overstimulation. In therapy, we work to calm the nervous system and explore the deeper layers of what your anxiety is trying to protect you from.
High-functioning anxiety is often rooted in early experiences that taught you your worth is tied to performance, achievement, or being “the strong one.” You might look calm and successful on the outside while feeling overwhelmed or panicked inside. Therapy helps you slow down, listen to your needs, and release the pressure to always be “on.”
Stress is short-term and often situation-specific. Burnout is long-term, chronic, and doesn’t go away with a weekend off. If you feel emotionally drained, disconnected, or like you’ve hit a wall no matter how much you rest, it’s likely burnout—not just stress.
