Mental Health Support for Helping Professionals

When your work is centred around caring for others, it can be hard to find space for your own needs. You might be a teacher, therapist, nurse, doctor, social worker, or caregiver; someone trained to show up with presence, empathy, and steadiness. But even the most grounded professionals can feel overwhelmed, depleted, or disconnected from themselves from time to time.


You may be carrying the emotional weight of others' pain while trying to hold your own together quietly. Over time, this can show up as burnout, irritability, exhaustion, or a sense of numbness. At Modern Holistic Psychiatry, I work with people in helping professions who need a space to speak freely, rest deeply, and reconnect with what drew them to this work in the first place.

A Space to Care for the Caregiver

Many of the people I work with are used to being the steady one, the person others turn to. In our sessions, that pressure can soften. We can talk about boundaries, compassion fatigue, secondary trauma, or the quiet grief that can build up over years of holding space for others. We might also focus on reconnecting with your own story, values, and emotional needs outside of your professional role.


Our work may include psychotherapy, somatic support, mindfulness-based strategies, and medication if appropriate. My approach is collaborative and non-hierarchical, shaped by a deep respect for the complexity and humanity of the work. I understand that seeking support, in small professional circles, can come with fears around being seen, This space is not only confidential, it’s protective. It is a safe space to reflect, recalibrate, and be cared for, without needing to hold it all together.
