Therapy for Burned-out, Ambitious Moms in California

You’re not broken—you’re just carrying too damn much.

You hold it together for everyone.
But lately, it feels like you’re falling apart inside.
You’re snappy, exhausted, disconnected, and running on fumes.

This is therapy that helps you stop shrinking—and finally feel like you again.

You’re the strong one.
You’re used to overdelivering. Overfunctioning. Overthinking.
But lately, even brushing your teeth feels like too much.

You love your family. But you secretly resent your partner for getting to leave the house and not carrying the mental load.
You crave connection, but you’re afraid of being seen for who you really are.
You’ve been in survival mode for so long, you can’t even remember what you want anymore.

If you’ve been wondering:
👉 “What happened to me?”
👉 “Why am I so angry or numb?”
👉 “How do I ask for help without feeling guilty?”
This is the place for you.

You’re the strong one. But lately, it feels like you're falling apart inside.

I work with overwhelmed, high-achieving moms who are navigating:

Burnout from the mental load of motherhood…

  • Resentment and disconnection in your relationship

  • People-pleasing, perfectionism & low self-worth

  • Postpartum anxiety, overstimulation & rage

  • A deep identity shift and the question: “Who am I now?”

You don’t want to just vent. You want change.

You want to…

✔️ Name your needs without spiraling
✔️ Set boundaries and still feel like a good mom
✔️ Parent without snapping from pure depletion
✔️ Stop people-pleasing and reconnect with who you are
✔️ Feel confident, grounded, and emotionally safe—in your own skin, and your own home

Therapy won’t erase your to-do list.
But it will give you tools, insight, and space to come back to yourself.

I’m Morgan Vazquez, LMFT

A mom of two, therapist, and survivor of the same burnout I now help women heal from.


I’ve sat in that space of silence, rage, guilt, and disconnection.
And I’ve fought my way back to calm, connection, and presence.

Now I help high-achieving, emotionally overloaded women like you reclaim your voice, your joy, and your sense of self.

My approach is:

  • Emotion-focused and relational

  • Trauma-informed and attachment-based

  • Bold, compassionate, and real—no “just breathe” therapy here

This is 100% virtual therapy for women in California.

No traffic. No small talk. No pants with zippers.

Just therapy that meets you where you are—between nap time, Slack pings, and snack time breakdowns.

My Specialties Include

  • Mother and her child

    Motherhood Burnout

    You’re running on fumes, stuck in survival mode, and constantly giving more than you have. You love your kids, but you’re exhausted, overstimulated, and silently wondering “Is this it?” Therapy can help you reclaim rest, joy, and the version of you that doesn’t disappear in the chaos.

  • Women

    Anxiety & Overthinking

    Your mind doesn’t shut off. You’re stuck in the “what ifs,” the spirals, and the need to control everything just to feel safe. Together, we’ll help you regulate your nervous system, quiet the noise, and build a sense of inner calm—even when life feels loud.

  • Women struggling with pressure of being perfect

    Perfectionism & Control

    You’re doing everything “right” but still feel like it’s never enough. You over-function, second-guess yourself, and carry the weight of everyone’s needs. In therapy, you’ll learn to let go of the pressure to be perfect and reconnect with your worth beyond what you do for others.

  • Three people lying on a bed with legs raised, relaxing in a sunny room.

    Women Who’ve Outgrown Their Old Selves

    You’ve evolved—but your life doesn’t reflect it yet. You’ve outgrown people-pleasing, self-silencing, and shrinking yourself to stay safe. Therapy is where you get to “unbecome” who you had to be—and rise into who you’re ready to become.
