Get relief from anxiety, burnout, and perfectionism—without losing your edge.
Virtual therapy in Alberta, Canada
You’re living for the to-do list while your own needs collect dust. Feeling like the “strong one” everyone relies on—but silently unraveling inside.
Imagine taking up space in your own life. Feeling calmer, clearer, and more connected to yourself. Living with less pressure and more presence.
I combine actionable tools from CBT, ACT, and EMDR to help you actually change—not just cope.
You’ll walk away from each session with something tangible to try, reflect on, or reframe—so growth keeps happening, even between sessions.
I have over a decade of experience helping women shift from burnout and anxiety to confidence and calm.

Limited spots available as I keep a small case load to ensure quality.
Why wait?
→ The overwhelm doesn’t go away—it just gets heavier.
→ You keep saying "next week," but nothing changes.
→ The burnout starts showing up in your health, relationships, and work.
→ You stay in survival mode, missing out on joy.
→ Your needs keep getting bumped to the bottom of the list—again.
→ The longer you wait, the louder that inner critic gets.
A few of the concepts we’ll explore …
-
→ Defining your own goals and values ...
-
→ … while letting go of those that others have passed/projected/forced onto you.
-
→ Learning you don't have to be the responsible one all the time.
-
→ Saying no feels good.
-
→ If someone's boat is going to get rocked, it doesn't always have to be yours.
-
→ It’s ok to not please everyone.
-
→ Putting others' needs first is a recipe for stress.
-
→ Relaxation and self-care need to come in small, medium, and large doses.
-
→ You are absolutely enough, regardless of what you are 'doing' or accomplishing.
-
→ Gendered double standards need to be called out and pushed back against.
-
→ Boundaries don’t make you selfish—they make you sustainable.
-
→ You can still be successful without constantly proving your worth.
-
→ Saying “I don’t want to” is a valid reason.
-
→ There’s no gold star for burning out.
-
→ Rest is productive.
-
→ You don’t need to have a breakdown to justify taking a break.
-
→ Your anxiety is trying to protect you—but it’s not always right.
-
→ You don’t have to fix everything to feel better.
-
→ Therapy is more than venting—it’s strategy, insight, and change.
-
→ You don’t have to keep holding it all. We can carry it together for a while.
Meet The Therapist
I’m Kate MacDonald, a Registered Psychologist and calm-in-the-storm kind of therapist.
I specialize in helping ambitious, high-achieving women who look like they’ve got it all together—but feel anything but.
You’ll never have to lead the session or figure it out alone. I bring strategy, structure, and deep compassion to every conversation.
Whether you’re stuck in anxiety, burnout, or the loop of perfectionism, I’ll help you get out of survival mode and into a life that actually feels like yours.
