Talk 1-on-1 with a Peer Specialist About Burnout

Burnout is more than feeling tired. It can look like emotional depletion, numbness, resentment, brain fog, and a loss of connection to yourself. A 1-on-1 session with a Peer Specialist helps you slow down and make sense of what your exhaustion is telling you.

I have become a Certified Peer Support Specialist because my life has been shaped by trauma, mental illness, and years of trying to cope without understanding or support. After childhood abuse, a difficult time in Air Force, church-related trauma, a bipolar II diagnosis, and eventual burnout, my recovery began through trauma‑informed care, medication, my service dog Violet, and my faith in God. These experiences have equipped me to offer others empathy, hope, and guidance on their own healing journeys.

I have lived experience with bipolar disorder, borderline personality, panic disorder/agoraphobia, PTSD, and addiction with most of it starting in my early childhood years. I’m now sober and live my life in recovery since December of 2023. Recovery isn’t always going to be perfect, and as a peer support specialist, I want to provide a safe and supportive nonjudgmental space where others feel heard, understood, and connected.
