Therapy for Teachers in North Carolina
Hi, I’m Ellen
A lot of North Carolina teachers are experiencing anxiety, anger, or are just plain TIRED of trying to hit a constantly moving target. You are not alone.
One of the (many) things that people don’t understand is that it isn’t the teaching that’s hard; it’s all the other stuff: classroom management, meetings, parents, paperwork, administration, etc. There’s a lot of pressure and, unfortunately, not a lot of support.
I GET IT. I was a classroom teacher as well as a school library media specialist, so I’ve been there and I know firsthand the challenges you’re dealing with.

It’s Not Your Fault
These days everyone is quick to diagnose disillusioned educators with “teacher burnout” when they are, in fact, demoralized. According to Doris Santoro, “burnout” suggests a failure on the part of the teacher, whereas demoralization occurs when there is incongruence between a teacher’s moral values and the school system’s policies and practices*. Sound familiar?
The good news is that you can turn it around. Counseling can help. Click here to learn more.
