Burnout isn’t a personal failure—it’s a systemic issue. At The Mending Place, we help you name burnout without blame, understand how systems shape stress, and reclaim rest with strategies that honor your energy and humanity.

Self-recovery is a radical act of reclaiming rest, autonomy, and joy—especially for those at the margins. At The Mending Place, we help you name the disconnect, define healing on your terms, and build intentional practices for thriving beyond survival.

Struggling to focus, plan, or follow through? It’s not laziness—it could be executive dysfunction. At The Mending Place, we offer compassionate, culturally-rooted coaching to help you build strategies that work with your brain, not against it.
