High Achievers & Burnout

Therapy for capable adults whose success has started to cost too much.

High achievers often look fine from the outside. Inside, the pattern can feel relentless: perform, manage, anticipate, prove, repeat.

In over 25 years of clinical work, Roma has seen how achievement can become a survival strategy when rest, softness, or imperfection have not felt safe.

Therapy can help separate excellence from self-abandonment and build a life that is not organized entirely around pressure.

For deeper, faster work, ask about premium services: Therapy Intensives and Brainspotting sessions.

Therapy can help with:

  • Burnout
  • Perfectionism
  • Over-functioning
  • Difficulty resting
  • Self-confidence
  • Identity beyond achievement

Thoughtful, direct, and trauma-informed.

Roma integrates psychoeducation, somatic approaches, mindfulness, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), CBT, and Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed work. Brainspotting is an EMDR-adjacent, brain-body modality offered as a premium service when clinically appropriate.

The work is collaborative and paced around your nervous system, your goals, and the realities of your life.

You do not have to know exactly where to begin.

A free 15-minute consultation is a simple first step.
