Counseling for Burnout in Memphis: Support for Caregivers Who Give Their All

Every time you walk through the door, you walk into a world that demands more and more of you. You have so much to take care of and people to care for. Ever since you started caregiving, you've learned to just push through even when another emergency or crisis arises. You've pretended you were just fine, smiling and enthusiastic but you just can't do that anymore. 

You are missing out on your own life. You feel hopeless when you wonder if you will ever feel like your old self again, the person who had confidence and energy. It just feels like all you do is manage crises after crisis. You don't even know what is normal anymore. 

You had dreams, hobbies, projects of your own , but they never get your attention anymore. There's just never room for what you want to do. It's so discouraging. You wonder if it is just better to give up on the dream and accept that this is how it is. 

You love the people you care for. It means the world to you that they feel seen. You go above and beyond for them. But it's wearing you down with how much you give and you just want to know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. 

You Don’t Have to Push Through Alone Anymore

Our therapists help the caregivers who put others’ needs ahead of their own, leading to overwhelm, exhaustion, and too many responsibilities to breathe and to remember what brings them joy. You've been viewed as strong and resourceful, even as you feel alone and incapable of managing  life.  We are here to help take the loneliness, anxiety, irritability, insomnia and all the things that are creating the final straw for you, and help you discover how to create a life that has more balance and room for you to breathe.

Reclaim Space for Yourself — Without Guilt or Shame

Through therapy we will work through the confusion on how to still be in your life while caregiving and how to make time for yourself, without the guilt and shame.  Our hope is that you will   regain  energy and direct it toward self-care. Imagine what will happen when you  dramatically shift how you relate to yourself, with more kindness and compassion.  

Therapies We Use To Help You Heal

We are here to help you regulate your nervous system through nature connection, body movement, and mindfulness meditation. We also help you become free from limiting beliefs that hold you back from the life you want to live. We may use a variety of therapeutic approaches including Internal Family Systems, somatic therapy, EMDR, cognitive therapy, and mindfulness and self-compassion practices.
