You've spent years being the one who holds it together, for your family, your
team, the people who need you most. You're capable, dependable, and tired in a
way you don't know how to explain. Maybe it's grief that keeps surfacing at
unexpected moments, or anxiety that hums beneath your daily routine no matter
how well you manage it. Maybe you're burning out slowly and feel guilty for even
naming it. Therapy can be where you finally put that weight down, not to fall
apart, but to figure out what you actually need, and start building a life that doesn't
cost you everything to sustain.
I'm Shanae, an LCSW-C with 9 years of experience working with adults and teens
navigating burnout, grief, anxiety, and life transitions. My approach is warm, direct,
and collaborative. We'll work together to understand your patterns, not just
manage your symptoms. I bring cultural humility and a strength-based lens to
every session.
I offer a free 15-minute consultation to make sure we're the right fit before we
begin. I see clients across Virginia and Maryland via telehealth and am currently accepting new clients most weekdays. If you're ready to stop surviving and start
building something sustainable, reach out, I'd love to connect.
