Trauma-Informed Therapy for Anxiety, Burnout, and People-Pleasing
For people who keep doing more because slowing down doesn’t feel safe.
Are you the one others always rely on?
You keep showing up, pushing through, doing more; even when you’re exhausted.
On the outside, you look capable and composed.
On the inside, your mind rarely slows down.
You replay conversations.
You question your choices.
You wonder why rest feels so uncomfortable; or even impossible.
You don’t need to try harder to feel worthy of rest.
Why Doing More Still Doesn’t Bring Relief
If you’ve tried resting, setting boundaries, or slowing down, and still feel on edge or behind, there’s a reason. At Insightful Roots Therapy, we work with people who learned early that staying busy, helpful, or high-achieving was the safest way to feel okay.
Anxiety, self-doubt, people-pleasing, and burnout aren’t personal failures; they’re patterns your nervous system learned to survive.
Our trauma-informed team helps you understand:
• why slowing down feels hard
• why doing more still doesn’t bring relief
• how to build a sense of safety that doesn’t require constant effort
Using approaches like EMDR, we focus on healing at the root.
You don’t have to keep carrying this on your own.
You Might be a Good Fit for Therapy at Insightful Roots if:
You look like you’re holding it all together, but inside you feel anxious, overwhelmed, or never quite “enough.”
You’re tired of people-pleasing, perfectionism, or parenting from a place of guilt and want to break the cycle.
You grew up in a family where emotions weren’t safe, and now you struggle to set boundaries or trust your needs.
You’re ready for real, lasting change — not just coping strategies, but deep healing at the root.
You want to stop spiraling in self-doubt and start feeling confident, grounded, and at peace in your own skin.
If you’re nodding along to any of these, you’re not alone. And you don’t have to keep figuring it out on your own.
