Online therapy for higher-education professionals

Do you feel like you are struggling in higher ed systems?

The world of higher education is complex, with systems that can create stress and pressure that lead to burnout. Whether you are faculty, staff, or a grad student, there are unique stressors in colleges and universities.

  • At every level there is pressure from above and all around

  • The expectations seem endless and yet still manage to increase

  • Time and energy are your most limited resources and you are feeling low on both

I have spent much of my career in higher ed, supporting students, faculty, and staff in coping with these high pressure demands. It is helpful to talk with a professional who understands the world of academia and can provide empathy, validation, and actual skills to help you not just manage but thrive. 

 You’re ready to reconnect to your sense of meaning and purpose in your work and study.

How therapy works

Learning how to better care for yourself contributes to resilience and helps you care for others and show up in all of your responsibilities.

Working together, we can rediscover the values that led you to a profession in academia. We can strengthen the tools that will enable success in your career and allow you to show up for all of the responsibilities in your life in the ways that matter most to you.

I have extensive experience working in institutions of higher ed and so I have an understanding of the struggles in your profession. However, I know that you are an individual with unique concerns and am here to support you in identifying what you most need to address and how I can best support you. We will assess your current concerns, as well as your strengths and values, and create a plan of support and skill building specialized to your needs.

Therapy can help you…

  • Reconnect to why you chose your profession

  • Find satisfaction and fulfillment at work and in other areas of your life

  • Understand barriers to your feeling of success and happiness

  • Understand how old patterns and traumas can get in the way

  • Learn the tools to feel confident, find peace and satisfaction, and believe that you are making a difference.
