Therapy for Therapists
Supporting the supporters - Virtual and in-person therapy in Indiana
“You support so many — you deserve support, too.
Show up for your clients feeling grounded, whole, and well — emotionally, physically, and spiritually.”
– Emily Paxton MA, LMHC, RD
Therapist, who’s supporting you now?
Therapist — you’re the steady one. The safe one. The one others count on.
You hold space for trauma, crisis, and deep emotion — day after day.
You work long hours, skip lunch, and keep showing up.
But who’s holding space for you?
Compassion fatigue, blurry boundaries, and echoes of your own trauma can quietly build up — even when you love the work.
You don’t need a self-care checklist.
You need real, sustaining support - from someone who gets it.
Support doesn’t have to stop with your clients.
You’re the one others turn to — but you deserve support, too.
Imagine this: You’re holding space without burning out.
You’re doing the work you love — without losing yourself in it.
You’ve found a rhythm where boundaries feel natural, rest is non-negotiable, and your own needs finally get a seat at the table.
You’re still the steady one — but now, you’re supported, too.
That’s what balance really looks like.
It’s your turn to be supported
As a therapist and long-time dietitian, I see you — because I’ve been there.
Supporting others is meaningful work. It’s why you do what you do.
But let’s be honest — holding space for everyone else can leave you feeling stretched thin, emotionally exhausted, and unsure where you fit in outside of your role.
I’m here for the therapists, clinicians, and caregivers who are always the ones others turn to — and are quietly wondering, “But who’s supporting me?”
Together, we’ll create space for you to be held, supported, and restored — so you can keep showing up with joy, clarity, and a full heart.
Because even the strongest supporters need support.
And you deeply, truly deserve it.
This therapy is for …
→ For therapists, mental health clinicians, and healthcare professionals who feel the weight of constantly caring for others — and are ready to receive support themselves.
→ If you’re experiencing therapist burnout, compassion fatigue, or emotional exhaustion from work that used to bring you purpose…
→ If your work is bleeding into your personal life, and you're left depleted, disconnected, or running on autopilot…
→ If you're always the one others lean on, but your own needs keep getting overlooked...
→ If the work that once felt meaningful now feels heavy or hollow…
You chose this work for a reason — to support, to serve, to make a difference. That calling is real.
But constantly holding space for others — without enough space for yourself — takes a toll.
Maybe it looks like burnout. Or maybe it’s subtler: a quiet sense of detachment, chronic over-functioning, or a belief that your worth depends on how much you give.
If that feels familiar, this blog post might resonate. It explores how burnout and perfectionism often build under the surface for high-capacity helpers — and how IFS offers a more compassionate way through.
In session, we’ll create space for your own healing — without pressure to perform, fix, or explain everything. Through Internal Family Systems (IFS), we’ll explore the parts of you that have been managing, pleasing, pushing. Through EMDR, we’ll gently process stuck patterns and past experiences that may still be driving your nervous system.
This isn’t just about keeping you functional. It’s about helping you feel like you again — grounded, connected, and restored.
