You hold space for others — Let us hold space for you
As a therapist, you’re trained to show up with presence and compassion for your clients. But when you’re constantly carrying the weight of others’ emotions, it’s natural to feel drained, detached, or overwhelmed. Burnout and empathy fatigue are real—and you deserve care, too.
Why you might be feeling this way
Working in a helping profession often means putting others’ needs ahead of your own. We understand what it’s like for our therapist parts to be on overdrive to try to get everything right, never cause harm to our clients, and balance the legal and ethical dilemmas that show up in our profession. Over time, this emotional labor can lead to:
- Emotional exhaustion
- Detachment or numbness
- Feeling overwhelmed or helpless
- Decreased satisfaction in your work
It’s not a personal failure—it’s a human response to the intensity of the work you do.
