Online Therapy for Overwhelmed Adults in Ohio
I work with adults struggling amidst the demands of caring for others and the chaos around them. Many of these adults feel passionate about the work they do as parents, healthcare providers, educators, and/or caring for their spouses, but feel like everything is slipping through their fingers, there is never enough time, and struggle to balance their own needs with those of the people around them. They often feel irritable, worried, and stressed, but struggle to find the time to deal with their own feelings. Often, they cope by setting aside their own feelings, hoping that it will get better soon. They have the sense that it looks like their holding it together to the outside world, but inside they feel exhausted.
If this sounds like you, know that you do not need to stay alone in your pain.
Caring for others is hard, incredibly hard. There are many transitions and daily experiences that can challenge you. ​​​​
​
Changes in your role at home: becoming a parent, living with a spouse/romantic partner, kids leaving home
Overstimulation due to repeated demands on your time and sensory overload
Being on the receiving end of big emotions from those around you
Balancing shifting demands at work with shifting demands at home
Worries and guilt about disappointing others if you say no to requests
Caring for others all day at work only to be asked to do more emotion work for loved ones at home.
Frequent interruptions during free time and sleep from others needing you
Lack of Time to Yourself
​
​
Make it harder for you to cope with existing anxiety, depression, trauma and alcohol use.
Challenges & Transitions in caring for others
Create new worries, cause trauma, lead to new feelings of sadness and anger, and a loss of identity.
You are not alone.
Although it may not feel like, it is more than possible for things to get better.
With evidence-based care, I work with clients to help them change the pain, decrease suffering, and connect back to who they are and the loved ones around them.
My Approach
I approach therapy based on the idea that there are two experts in the room. I have expertise in understanding the development and treatment of psychological distress and promoting wellness, while you have expertise in your own lived experience, your preferences, and values. Based on these two forms of expertise, you and I will work together to create your therapy.
