Therapy for Burnout in High-Achieving Women

When Burnout Looks Like Productivity, but Feels Like Emptiness

You’re a high-achieving woman who looks successful on the outside—but inside, you’re feeling unfulfilled, disconnected, and unsure of what’s next.


You’ve built a successful life—but inside, you’re overwhelmed, emotionally drained, and running on fumes. At Positive Moods Therapy, we specialize in helping high-achieving women heal from burnout, perfectionism, and anxiety using personalized, evidence-based approaches like EMDR. You don’t have to hold it all together alone.


You feel like you are…


  • Constantly performing but rarely feeling fulfilled

  • Saying “yes” when you’re screaming “no” inside

  • Carrying the weight of everyone else’s expectations

  • Struggling to slow down without feeling guilty

  • Tired of shrinking yourself to keep the peace

  • Achieving on the outside, but anxious or empty on the inside


Together, we'll explore the impact of your past, allowing you to savor life's rich experiences.

Specializing in…

  • Unhealed trauma doesn’t always look like chaos—it can show up as over-functioning, perfectionism, or always being the "strong one." I help you explore the root of those patterns in a safe, supportive space so you can finally release survival mode and start living from a place of wholeness.

  • People pleasing can feel like being everything for everyone—but nothing for yourself. Together, we’ll uncover the beliefs behind your "yes," learn to set boundaries without guilt, and help you reconnect with the version of you that doesn’t need to earn her worth.

  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that helps the brain process and release stuck trauma. If you’ve tried talk therapy but still feel “stuck,” EMDR can help you move forward without having to relive every detail of your past.

See change

As you begin to heal, you’ll notice more clarity, confidence, and calm. You’ll learn how to honor your needs, set boundaries without guilt, and finally feel like you again—without burning out or shrinking yourself to keep the peace.
