Therapy for veterinary professionals in New Jersey and Pennsylvania who need a space to process stress, burnout, and the emotional weight of work.
Working in veterinary medicine is deeply meaningful — and emotionally demanding. Constant caregiving, difficult decisions, and exposure to frequent loss and heartbreak takes a toll over time.
In part because of the important work of organizations like Not One More Vet, we are becoming more aware of the mental health consequences of working within the veterinary profession. You matter, your work matters, and you don’t have to do this all by yourself.
Understanding the Emotional Impact of Veterinary Medicine
Working in this field for any amount of time, you may experience:
Burnout and compassion fatigue, wondering if you’ve done enough
Moral distress and ethical dilemmas
Grief related to patient injury, illness or euthanasia
Challenges working with pet parents
Managing an increasing workload with staffing shortages
Anxiety, depression, or emotional numbness
Difficulty separating work stress from personal life
These experiences are common — and they deserve care and attention.
How Therapy Can Help
Our work together may focus on:
Processing grief and moral distress
Managing burnout and emotional exhaustion
Developing boundaries to protect your wellbeing
Reconnecting with meaning and purpose in your work
Building resilience without minimizing your experience
This is a space where the realities of veterinary medicine are understood and respected.
Online Therapy for Veterinary Professionals
I offer secure online therapy sessions that fit into demanding schedules and reduce barriers to care.
Take the First Step
You give so much to others, and you cannot do your best at work when you are running on empty. Therapy is a place to give something back to yourself.
I offer a free 15-minute consultation to explore whether working together feels like a good fit.
“The expectation that we can be immersed in suffering and loss daily and not be touched by it is as unrealistic as expecting to be able to walk through water without getting wet.”
