Anxiety, Burnout, Perfectionism
& Overwhelm
Therapy in Fort Collins, Colorado
Support for women and moms navigating chronic anxiety, mental exhaustion, perfectionism, early motherhood stress, and emotional over-stimulation.
If you feel like your brain never shuts off, your patience is thin, and you’re constantly overstimulated, you’re not “bad at coping” — you’re exhausted. The mental load, emotional labor, and pressure to keep everything running smoothly can quietly push you into survival mode.
If life or motherhood feels heavy, chaotic, or emotionally draining right now, there isn’t something wrong with you. You’re overwhelmed, burnt out, and carrying more than one nervous system was meant to hold — and you deserve support that actually understands that.

Anxiety, Mom Burnout & Overwhelm in Motherhood
Motherhood can trigger a unique blend of anxiety, emotional exhaustion, and chronic overwhelm. Between meeting everyone else’s needs, managing the invisible mental load, and trying to show up as the “good mom,” it’s easy to lose yourself in the process.
This can show up as:
Constant worry or racing thoughts
Feeling on edge, irritable, or emotionally reactive
Sensory overload from noise, touch, and demands
Guilt for needing space or rest
Feeling disconnected from yourself or your partner
Decision fatigue and emotional shutdown
This isn’t weakness — it’s burnout and nervous system overload.
What This Looks Like in Real Life
You might resonate with this if you:
Feel like you’re always “on” and never truly resting
Are overstimulated by sound, touch, or constant demands
Second-guess yourself as a mom
Feel anxious for no clear reason
Struggle to enjoy motherhood the way you hoped you would
Notice resentment, shame, or emotional numbness creeping in
Feel like you’re losing your sense of self
Many moms quietly carry this, believing they should just “handle it better.” But the truth is — anxiety and burnout are signals, not personal failures.

Rebuilding emotional capacity and regulation
Breaking survival-based coping cycles
Strengthening secure attachment to yourself and your children
