When You’ve Been the Strong One for Too Long

You’re the one people count on.

At work.

At home.

In crisis.

"Adult wiAdult visibly distressed by disorganized child’s room, highlighting feeling overwhelmed and burnout

You get things done — even when you’re running on empty.

And inside?

You’re tired, wired, resentful, and quietly wondering how much longer you can keep going before you finally lose your shit.

You might be dealing with:

• People-pleasing you can’t turn off

• Perfectionism that drains your soul

• Chronic burnout that doesn’t resolve with rest

• Emotional exhaustion and resentment in relationships

• Constant self-doubt despite being highly competent

• A history of talk therapy that never really worked

• Showing up for everyone else while feeling like no one truly shows up for you

You’ve outgrown surface-level therapy.

You’re ready for something that actually meets you where you are.

What You’re Actually Looking For

Let’s name this cleanly:

You don’t want empty reassurance.
You don’t want coping skills you’ll forget by Tuesday.
And you don’t want to perform insight for someone else.

You want relief.

You want clarity.

You want to trust yourself again.

You want to:

Feel grounded instead of constantly bracing
Stop carrying everything alone
Understand what’s happening underneath the burnout
— not just manage symptoms
Connect without performing
Move out of crisis mode and back into your actual life

You are not broken.

You’re exhausted from overfunctioning for too damn long.

What Becomes Possible With the Right Support

With steady, honest support, things can shift.

image of a confident person who is organized and successfully manages the demands of home, work, relationships, and feels like themselves again

Not overnight.

Not magically.

But meaningfully.

You can begin to:

✔ Feel less reactive and more steady

✔ Set boundaries without drowning in guilt
✔ Trust your own decisions again

✔ Show up more honestly in your relationships
✔ Quiet the constant loop of self-doubt

✔ Use tools that actually work for you

This is where therapy stops feeling like more work

and starts feeling like support.

Why This Work Matters to Me

Hey there, I’m Chris, the therapist behind Prebble Counseling Services and The Ethical Badass™ .

I’ve spent over 21 years helping high-achieving adults untangle burnout, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and the invisible pressure to keep functioning no matter the cost.

I show up grounded, human, and honest.

No performance.

No sugarcoating.

No textbook responses.

This work is personal.

I’ve raised three neurodivergent kids while navigating my own late ADHD diagnosis, a full professional life, and the invisible load that comes with being “the strong one.”

I know what it’s like to keep showing up while quietly unraveling.

You don’t have to prove your strength here.

You get to rest it.

What It’s Like to Work With Me

Real conversations.

Real tools.

No bullshit.

Clients often tell me this is the first time therapy has actually made sense.

Here's Why:

You don’t have to explain yourself
You get compassion without coddling
We talk honestly, not clinically
We focus on what actually helps
You’re treated like a human being, not a diagnosis

This is a space where you can stop performing

and start trusting yourself again.

Answers To The Questions I Hear Most

Do you only work online?

Yes.

All sessions are held online through a secure platform. No commute. No awkward waiting rooms. No pressure to have it together.

What states do you work in?

I’m licensed in Pennsylvania and registered to provide telehealth for adults in Florida and South Carolina.

What makes your therapy approach different?

Yes.

All sessions are held online through a secure platform. No commute. No awkward waiting rooms. No pressure to have it together.

Do I need a diagnosis to start therapy?

Not at all.
I don’t require or assume any diagnosis. If you’re overwhelmed, burned out, or tired of holding it all together, that’s enough.

Why don’t you take insurance?

I don’t bill insurance so I can offer care that’s private, personalized, and focused on what actually helps.

Mentaya is available to support out-of-network reimbursement.

What if therapy hasn’t worked for me before?

That’s more common than you think.

Many clients tell me, “You’re the first therapist who actually understands me.”
