Overcome Depression & Burnout as a Working Black Mom to Find Joy Again
Does this sound familiar?...
You feel emotionally drained, struggling with motivation outside of work and family responsibilities.
You are constantly juggling parenting, your career, and personal well-being—yet never feel like you’re doing enough.
You experience mom guilt when prioritizing yourself but feel burned out when you don’t.
You struggle to rest, relax, or recharge because there’s always something that needs to be done.
You are overwhelmed by the gap between what you thought womanhood and motherhood would be like vs. reality.
You find it difficult to ask for help or trust your support system.
You lack healthy boundaries, leaving you feeling exhausted and resentful.
If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Many Black working moms experience high-functioning depression, anxiety, and burnout—but there is help.
How Therapy Can Help You Overcome Depression as a Black Working Mom
Depression doesn’t always look like sadness—it often looks like:
Feeling disconnected from yourself and what brings you joy.
Running on autopilot, only doing what’s necessary for work and family.
Feeling resentful because you never have time for yourself.
Struggling to ask for or receive help.
Experiencing constant exhaustion (even after sleeping).
Losing interest in activities you once enjoyed.
Through therapy, we will work together to:
Acknowledge and process your emotions—without shame or guilt.
Redefine what balance means for you—not what society expects.
Identify small, realistic steps toward restoring your energy and confidence.
Create a self-care and rest plan that feels achievable, not forced.
You deserve to feel supported, not just responsible for everyone else.
What Therapy with Me is Like
Therapy is a space for healing, not judgment. Here’s what you can expect:
A safe, non-judgmental space to express your feelings, even the ones you’ve been afraid to say out loud.
Practical tools to help you regain balance and emotional well-being.
Guidance and support, but ultimately, you’ll lead your own healing journey.
What I Won’t Do:
I won’t tell you what to do or how to feel.
I won’t make decisions for you.
I won’t dismiss your experiences.
Therapy isn’t about being “fixed”—it’s about being heard, supported, and empowered to navigate motherhood, work, and life in a way that serves you.
