You don't have to fall apart to ask for help.
As a therapist in Pasadena, I help high-functioning, emotionally responsible women in California and Nevada find relief from burnout—without stepping away from their ambition or abandoning the people they care about. Even if rest feels like a luxury or therapy hasn't helped in the past, you deserve a life that feels sustainable, aligned, and yours.
When Everything Looks Fine—but You’re Barely Hanging On
You’ve been holding it together for so long that falling apart doesn’t even feel like an option. You’re the one who gets it done. Who remembers the appointments, makes the plans, fills the gaps.
But lately, it’s all feeling… heavy.
Maybe you:
- Snap at your partner, then spiral with guilt.
- Walk into the kitchen and feel instantly defeated.
- Say you’re fine, but you can’t remember the last time you felt like yourself.
- Lie in bed replaying every task you missed, every text you haven’t answered.
- Keep pushing because slowing down feels impossible—even though you crave rest.
No wonder you feel depleted - burnout is a natural response to chronic stress and overfunctioning.
And there’s a way through - with burnout therapy designed for executives and high-achievers.
Imagine Feeling More Like Yourself Again
What if the mental noise quieted down?
What if you could pause without guilt… and show up without resentment?
What if life didn’t feel like a never-ending performance?
Hi, I’m Nicole. I specialize in burnout therapy for executives, professionals, and high-achieving women across California and Nevada.
My approach isn’t about “just breathe more” or “drop the ball.” It’s about uncovering the patterns that got you here, building new ways to care for yourself, and creating space for a life that feels like your own again.
Whether you’re collapsing with a glass of wine on to the couch at night, having the thought “I can’t handle this” - or secretly panicking about letting anyone down - I’m here to help you find relief that actually sticks.
This Doesn’t Have to Be Your Forever
Imagine a version of your day where…
💤 You wake up rested - not already behind.
💬 You say “no” without spiraling into guilt.
🧘♀️ You stop managing everyone else’s emotions - and start tuning into your own.
❤️ You enjoy time with your family because you’re actually there - not just physically present, but emotionally available.
Burnout therapy gives you room to feel better - more rooted, more regulated, more like the you who remembers how to laugh and trust your own decisions.
If You’ve Tried Therapy Before and Still Feel Stuck - You’re Not Alone
You’ve read the books. Downloaded the apps. Maybe even done therapy before. Still, the burnout lingers.
That’s because what you’re up against isn’t a lack of tips - it’s a story. The one that says your worth is tied to your productivity.
Here, we dig into that story. We stay focused, honest, and practical, so you can finally move past the cycle of quick fixes and start seeing change that actually lasts.
You Don’t Have to Keep Holding It All Together Alone
Burnout therapy is a chance to step out of survival mode and reconnect with the parts of you that feel steady, clear, and whole.
You can be reliable and rested. Strong and supported. Capable without always being on edge.
Let’s make space for the version of you that exists - and has been buried underneath all that pressure.
Yeah, But…
-
You’re juggling a lot—therapy might feel like one more thing. But what if it could be the thing that helps everything else feel more manageable?
-
You’re the one others lean on. But that doesn’t mean you have to carry it all alone. Letting someone support you doesn’t make you weak—it makes you human.
-
That makes sense—and it’s valid to feel wary. This time, we’ll focus on the patterns that actually led to burnout, not just the symptoms. We’ll work differently—honestly, practically, and with your real life in mind.
-
It’s not indulgent to want to feel better. It’s not selfish to want your life to feel more sustainable. It’s necessary. And you’re allowed to need support.
You don’t have to be at your breaking point to start. And you don’t have to do this alone.
Is Burnout Therapy Right For You?
This is for you if…
✅ You’re constantly managing the details, emotions, and expectations of everyone around you.
✅ You feel one small request away from snapping—but you keep powering through.
✅ You’ve tried self-care, boundaries, and maybe even therapy—but nothing’s stuck.
✅ You want to feel calm, clear, and like yourself again—not just someone getting it all done.
✅ You’re ready to get honest about what’s not working and finally do something different.
This might not be for you if…
🚫 You’re looking for a quick fix.
🚫 You’re not ready to explore deeper patterns or shift long-standing habits.
🚫 You want someone else to change first before you're willing to make a move.
This work is honest.
It’s empowering.
And it’s designed for real women with real lives.
What if you gave yourself permission to start now?
You might be telling yourself, “I’ll reach out when things settle down.”
But burnout often doesn’t go away on its own - it just finds sneakier ways to show up.
Over time, your nervous system adjusts to chronic stress. You start to forget what rested feels like.
Small moments of joy get replaced by a constant sense of pressure. And you begin to wonder if this stretched-thin version of you is just how life is now.
But what if it doesn’t have to be? What if therapy helped you find space to exhale again - without dropping everything or letting anyone down?
Future you is asking for relief. For permission to slow down. For space to breathe. You can keep holding it all - or you can start holding yourself too.
You Don’t Have to Stay Stuck in Survival Mode
Burnout therapy helps you step out of perfectionism, pressure, and the belief that rest has to be earned.
Together, we’ll create space to slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with the version of you that’s been buried under all the responsibility.
You’ll walk away with:
💫 Clearer boundaries that protect your energy without guilt
💫 A calmer nervous system that doesn’t live in overdrive
💫 More ease, presence, and actual enjoyment in your day-to-day life
💫 Confidence to lead from clarity - not performance
💫 The ability to care for yourself with the same dedication you’ve shown everyone else
