Support for Teachers

You still care deeply. You’re just tired of caring alone.

You didn’t become a teacher for the paperwork, the politics, or the pressure. You became a teacher because you love learning, connecting, and watching those lightbulb moments in your students. You’re here because, somewhere along the way, that love started getting buried under exhaustion, red tape, unrealistic demands, and a system that often asks more than it gives.

You’re not alone—and you’re not broken.

Burnout isn’t a sign of weakness. It’s a very human response to a job that pulls at every thread of your nervous system, often without enough space to rest, reflect, or be held yourself. I work with teachers who are at that edge—not because they’ve stopped caring, but because they’ve cared so much, for so long, with so little left for themselves.

Whether you’re still in the classroom, on leave, or considering stepping away, this space is for you.

What this space offer

We slow down. We name what’s happening—not just on paper, but in your body, your thoughts, your spirit. We talk about what’s heavy and what’s missing. We gently unpack what brought you to this work, what you’ve lost along the way, and what it might look like to come back to yourself.

This isn’t performance management. It’s not about becoming a better teacher in the eyes of the system. It’s about reconnecting with your own values, your own needs, and your own sense of what matters. It’s about shifting from survival to something that feels more sustainable—and maybe even hopeful again.

Some of what we might work through:

Chronic stress, burnout, and nervous system exhaustion

Loss of purpose or identity within the job

Emotional overwhelm and the mental load of teaching

Navigating difficult systems, expectations, and leadership structures

Perfectionism, people-pleasing, or “good teacher” guilt

Boundaries—what they are, where they went, and how to get them back

What working together looks like

Sessions are collaborative and client-led. That means we follow your pace, not a set plan. Some days it might be about emotions, others it might be about practical decisions, identity shifts, or simply processing the week. There’s space here for laughter, frustration, grief, and joy—all of it.

I bring both lived and professional experience: as a teacher, a therapist, and someone who’s also wrestled with the heartbreak of loving a job that doesn’t always love you back.

You don’t need to prove you’re struggling. You don’t need to explain why it’s hard. If you’re here, that’s reason enough.

Ready when you are

This is a space to rest, reflect, and rebuild—on your terms.
