Therapy for Helping Professionals in Fullerton, California
You got into this work to help people.
But carrying the weight of it has left you exhausted and unsure how much longer you can keep going.
You’ve poured years of energy and heart into your career as a helping professional, often without pause or space to breathe. Tired doesn’t even begin to cover it. the long hours, the stories you live with, and the constant pressure have you stretched so thin that the days blur together. At times, it feels like the version of you that once felt passionate, creative, and alive might be lost forever.
Maybe you are…
Reliving scenes from work, long after you’ve left—physically safe but mentally stuck, and carrying images you can’t share with anyone in your personal life.
Just going through the motions on autopilot, feeling numb or resentful toward the very people you’re supposed to care for.
Always saying “yes,” even when your body needs rest—staying late or taking on extra shifts that you don’t actually have the capacity to cover.
A therapist who feels drained, noticing more irritability or frustration with clients and wondering whether you have what it takes to keep doing this work.
Making mistakes at work—like missing important details, letting professional boundaries slip, or making choices that are misaligned with your values.
You give so much to others—it’s time to give something back to yourself.
Hi, I’m Marysa.
I help helpers stop living on autopilot & rediscover who they are beyond their work.
I understand firsthand how demanding the life of a helping professional can be—and how rewarding, too. Years of supporting other therapists as well as crisis work alongside first responders have shown me how deeply this work can shape you, and how important it is to have a space that’s just for you. That’s what I offer: a calm, supportive environment where your time is valued, your story matters, and you can finally take a deep breath.
Specializing in…
-
When the work you once loved leaves you feeling empty, angry, or nothing at all, it’s a sign that something needs to shift. We’ll create space for you to pause, release the burdens you’re bearing, reaffirm why you love this work, and create balance to help you feel whole again.
-
You carry experiences most people will never understand—and often, you have to do it alone. Here, you don’t have to sugarcoat anything or censor the things you’re ready to get off your chest. Through the work we’ll do together, you can begin to feel safe in your body, present with your loved ones, and reinvigorated in your work.
-
Even as someone who knows how important self-care is, it’s easy to lose sight of your own needs while holding space for everyone else. In our work together, you’ll have room to reflect, restore your confidence in your abilities as a clinician, and realign with the part of you that feels grounded and compassionate.
This is where healing begins.
