Counseling for Mental Health Providers throughout Maryland

Many therapists who start counseling feel bogged down by work and their own personal stuff that keeps getting in the way. Perhaps you can relate. Maybe you’re noticing that you complain a lot about feeling stressed, tired, and unfulfilled or you’ve noticed old, unhealthy habits creeping back in. You might be feeling stuck (or like a mess), even though you’re trying real hard to hold it together. You may feel like life (and work) is exhausting. You might even be self-critical, believing that you β€œshould” have it together because of your professional role. If you’re reading this, I hope you’ll recognize that you’re here because you are listening to your body and because you know that taking care of ourselves is part of our ethical duty. So…good for you for taking this step!

Do These Resonate With You?

  • Your energy and motivations are at an all time low

  • You question if you're experiencing burnout and/or compassion fatigue

  • Old, unhealthy behaviors are creeping in as your stress increases

  • Your personal life is spilling into work, and your work is spilling into family life

  • You feel like you're wandering through life, feeling like something is missing or your balance is "off"

  • You feel like there are so many things to manage and your growing "to do list" leaves you feeling overwhelmed

If any of these sound true for you, you’re doing exactly what you need to be doing by putting your own needs first and seeking help. You don’t have to keep putting yourself last, caring for everyone else before you take care of yourself.

LifeSpring’s Approach to Counseling for Mental Health Providers

You already know that counseling can help! Imagine a life where you could… Have improved attitude, mood, and productivity, shift into a more positive and hopeful outlook on life, have the work-life balance you crave, practice what you teach & get the self-care you need, create a more intentional life based on who you are and what you desire, and get to the root problems and solve those instead of using band-aids. Counseling for mental health providers helps you work through your β€œstuff,” so you can help others work on theirs.

In our work, you will get you the fresh perspective you need to discover things about yourself that you haven’t realized before and see that you deserve kindness and forgiveness – the same that you give to others.

Even if you’re nervous about being judged by another provider, we can assure you that you’ll find a judgment-free space in our work together. You already know the value of therapy. We’ve helped other providers work through trauma, grief, work-related pressures, stress, and family relationships. Seeking your own therapy is a sign that you take your ethical duty to care for yourself seriously. It’s always our pleasure to work with fellow providers.
