Real
support for people who
carry heavy
shit.
Trauma-informed, resilience-based peer support for high-impact lives and careers.
Healing starts with connection.
Confidential • Non-clinical • Peer-led • Virtual
Who I Support
I work with people who carry a lot—and don’t have the luxury of falling apart. My clients are often helpers by nature and profession. They are the ones others depend on, and sometimes that gets heavy. I provide a space where they don’t have to be “on” or “fine.”
I regularly work with:
• First responders and dispatchers
• Healthcare workers and crisis responders
• Trauma-exposed professionals
• People navigating burnout and moral injury
• High-responsibility roles under pressure
• Survivors rebuilding resilience
If you’re carrying more than most, you’re in the right place.
How I Work
Peer support is real conversation—built on trust, lived experience, and emotional honesty. It’s not therapy, and it’s not surface-level coping talk. It’s a grounded process that focuses on resilience, recovery, and forward movement without judgment.
What You Get
• Space to unload without judgment
• Tools that actually apply to real life
• Support that fits your pace
How Sessions Work
• Confidential peer connection
• Trauma-informed structure
• Focused on growth + recovery
What This Isn't
• No clinical labels
• No forced vulnerability
• No “toxic positivity”
This is a space where you don’t have to be strong just to be heard.
Specialized Support for High-Stress Lives
Some people experience more in a year than others do in a lifetime. Exposure to trauma, human crisis, system pressure, and emotional overload doesn’t just disappear. It builds. I specialize in helping people process what stays with them—without pathologizing normal human responses to hard things.
Common Areas I Support:
• Cumulative trauma • Critical incident stress • Burnout and emotional exhaustion • Compassion fatigue • Moral injury • Sleep/overwhelm cycles • High-functioning survival mode
I’m a good fit for people who:
• Don’t want sugar-coated support • Respect privacy and boundaries • Want honest, practical tools • Prefer peer connection over clinical labels • Are ready for forward momentum
You don’t need to explain your work to me.
I get it.

Why Peer Support Works
Peer support is powerful because it removes the pressure to perform. There’s no judgment, no clinical labels, and no need to explain yourself from the beginning. It’s connection with someone who gets it—and that builds trust, safety, and real change.

Just honest support.
