You may be the woman who keeps going, keeps giving and keeps abandoning her own needs until burnout forces her to stop. Perhaps you have spent years adapting to what others need, trying to meet expectations or becoming the version of yourself that seems most capable, helpful or acceptable. You may be caring, thoughtful and spiritually aware, yet still ignore your limits, doubt your inner voice or feel guilty when you put yourself first. I specialise in supporting spiritually minded women experiencing burnout, chronic stress or overwhelm to reconnect with themselves and break the cycle of self-abandonment.

I work collaboratively and flexibly, drawing on different therapeutic approaches depending on what you need. This may include talking things through, noticing what is happening in your body, exploring patterns or using practical tools. My style is warm, grounded and gently direct, with space for both compassion and honest reflection.

I will not treat burnout as a personal failure or a sign that you need to cope better. We live in systems that reward overwork and self-sacrifice, while women are often expected to stay emotionally available and hold everything together. Therapy with me can help you stop overriding your needs and learn to care without disappearing.

Where it feels helpful, we may use therapeutic tarot, guided visualisation or other reflective practices to explore emotions, patterns, identity and meaning. These tools can offer a different way of expressing what may be difficult to put into words.

I have particular expertise in the intersection of burnout, neurodivergence and trauma. If relevant to you, we can explore how trauma and experiences such as hyperfocus, masking and perfectionism can contribute to burnout. Together, we can identify your patterns, understand your needs and develop a more compassionate, sustainable approach to recovery and prevention.
