Anxiety, burnout, and relationship therapy for women in Wellington, FL
In Person & Online throughout Florida
Therapy for women who are done white-knuckling their way through the week.
You’re doing everything right. So why does it feel like this?
You've built a life that looks great from the outside. The career you worked hard for, the family that gets taken care of, the to-do list that never ends. You show up, you deliver, and you hold it all together. But behind closed doors you're exhausted, anxious, and running on fumes. Something has to change and you already know it.
-
You're the one who remembers every appointment, manages every crisis, and keeps every relationship running smoothly. At work you're the one they call when something needs to get done. At home you're the one who holds it all together. You say yes when you're already at capacity, take care of everyone else's needs before your own, and then lie awake at night wondering if you did enough. The weight of being responsible for everyone leaves you feeling alone, overwhelmed, and overfunctioning.
-
You thrive under pressure at work. Deadlines, difficult conversations, impossible expectations and you handle all of it without missing a beat. But the moment you get home, or the moment your head hits the pillow, your brain won't stop. You replay conversations, worry about things you can't control, and run through tomorrow's to-do list at 2am. You can manage anything except the noise inside your own head.
-
You've tried everything. The workouts, the productivity systems, the self-help books, the podcasts. You've pushed through hard seasons before and come out the other side. But the anxiety always comes back. Sometimes it's the racing thoughts at night. Sometimes it's the tightness in your chest before a hard conversation. Sometimes it's just a constant low hum of dread that you can't explain. You're not lazy or weak. You're exhausted from fighting something that hasn't been healed yet.
I’m Laurie.
I believe you deserve relief from anxiety & to finally be able to breathe.
I'm a therapist who works with women who are tired of holding everything together. I know from personal experience that just getting through the week is not the same as truly living.
When we sit down together I won't judge what you share, talk pop psychology, or hand you a worksheet. I'll give you honest, real feedback and call it out gently when something is standing between you and the change you're looking for. You're not broken. I'll help you understand why you can't stop replaying that conversation, why you're wide awake at 2am, and what it actually looks like to stop just surviving and start living.
How I can help
I specialize in therapy for lasting change.

If your brain won't shut off and worry is running the show, you already know what I mean. You're worrying about whether you said the right thing in that meeting, whether your kids are okay, whether you're doing enough at home and at work and in every relationship. It shows up at 2am, in the car on the way to school pickup, in the middle of a conversation when you're physically present but mentally somewhere else. Therapy can help you understand what's driving it and actually change it.

Burnout isn't just exhaustion. It's feeling like you have to do it all, yet still feeling like you're falling behind. You're snapping at your kids, feeling disconnected from your partner, lying awake at 2 a.m. thinking about everything that still needs to get done, and wondering why you can't seem to catch your breath.
You might tell yourself, "If I could just get the laundry done, I'd feel better." But somehow there's always another list, another responsibility, another person who needs you.
Girl, you're burnt out.
It's not because you're not trying hard enough. You've been stuck in patterns that keep you anxious, overwhelmed, and running on empty. Together, we'll help you understand why those patterns developed so you can stop surviving and start feeling more like yourself again.

You don't want to disappoint anyone, so you say yes when you really mean no. You avoid difficult conversations, keep the peace, and make sure everyone else's needs are taken care of before you even think about your own. It's no wonder your relationships leave you feeling exhausted instead of connected.
Together, we'll help you understand your "why" so you can stop repeating the same exhausting patterns and start creating healthier, more connected relationships.

Together, we'll make sense of what's happening so you can feel less overwhelmed and more connected at home, at work, and in your relationships.
