Therapy for Overthinkers

& OverGivers

 

 

Because "fine" all the time is exhausting

 

I help overthinkers and overgivers stop white-knuckling life and find steadier ground — internally, emotionally, and in their relationships.

​

If your mind is always running, your needs tend to come last, and you’re tired of holding everything together, you’re in the right place. 

​

I offer virtual therapy for adults located in Colorado and Maryland, making it easier to fit therapy into your life — no commuting, no rushing, no added pressure.

​

You don't have to be "perfect" to start. You just have to be ready.

You Look Like You’ve Got It Together —

 

But Inside, It’s a Totally Different Story

 

Maybe people see you as calm, capable, and reliable. You show up, follow through, and handle things.
But internally? You’re replaying conversations, questioning yourself, managing everyone else’s emotions, and wondering why you feel so drained.

​

You might:

​

  • Say the word "imposter" to yourself over and over

  • Feel responsible for keeping the peace

  • Apologize easily or minimize your own needs

  • Feel awkward or “off” on the inside, even when you look put-together on the outside

  • Tell yourself you should be fine — and feel frustrated that you’re not

 

This isn’t because you’re damaged.


It’s because you care deeply, think deeply, and have learned to stay attuned to others — often at the expense of yourself.

 Bridgit Lacy-Wolak

With almost 20 years of experience as a therapist, I’ve learned that growth is rarely a dramatic “aha” moment.


It’s usually a series of tiny, almost unremarkable shifts that eventually make you go, “Huh… I don’t freak out about that anymore. Interesting.”

 

Therapy isn’t about fixing you—nothing is broken. It’s about reconnecting with your own steadiness and wisdom (Yes, the wisdom is still there. It’s just been buried under a lot of overthinking, worrying, imposter syndrome and people pleasing.)

 

You don’t have to figure it out alone. I’m here to offer steady support and a path forward that moves at your pace (not anyone else’s).

A Different Kind of Therapy​

                                     

 

This isn’t surface-level coping skills or forced positivity

(don't get me wrong, but we will learn some).
And it’s not about becoming less caring or less you.

Therapy with me is a space to slow down, untangle the mental noise,

 and understand the patterns that keep pulling you out of yourself

and into overthinking, overgiving, and emotional exhaustion.

 

We’ll focus on:

  • Quieting the constant internal dialogue

  • Reconnecting with your own needs and signals

  • Building boundaries that feel steady, not harsh or guilt-ridden

  • Shifting long-standing relational patterns without losing yourself

  • Creating more ease — not just better functioning

 

The goal is to help you feel more at home in yourself.

What Working Together Feels Like

 

My style is warm, grounded, and gently challenging — with room for humor, honesty, and real conversation.

 

Clients often tell me therapy feels:

  • Steady and supportive

  • Insightful without being overwhelming

  • Deep, but not heavy for the sake of it

  • Like a place where they don’t have to perform or explain themselves

 

We move at a pace that honors your nervous system, not pushes past it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What services do you offer?

I use an eclectic, integrative approach, meaning sessions are tailored to you, not a one-size-fits-all model. Depending on your needs, we may draw from EMDR, mindfulness-based approaches, stress management, CBT, and breathwork. The work is collaborative, relational, and paced with your nervous system in mind — not rushed or forced.

How do I schedule an appointment?

Scheduling an appointment with me is simple. Just reach out to my office by phone or email to arrange your complimentary 20-minute consultation. I am committed to providing you with prompt assistance. You can click on the Contact Me page to add your information, call at 719-399-3139, or email me at flourishingcactus@gmail.com. I look forward to working with you. 

What can I expect during a therapy session?

The first session is about connection, not pressure. We’ll spend time getting to know each other, talking about what brings you in, and understanding how your experiences are affecting you now. It’s normal to feel a little awkward or unsure at first — that’s part of the process. We’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable and begin identifying goals that feel meaningful and realistic for you.
