Hi, I'm therapist who’s been supporting others through their struggles for the past six years. I love the work I do—holding space for healing, growth, and resilience—but like anyone in a helping profession, I also need time to rest and reset.

The truth is, I haven’t been able to afford a proper vacation since I started this career. Between bills and the nature of currently being a part-time (no paid time off), taking extended time away from work has always felt out of reach financially. This year, I’m hoping to change that—with your help.

I’m raising $3,500. This amount will cover my basic living expenses while I take time off, and allow me to stay in a hotel for five days—just enough to unwind, unplug, and recharge...NO GIFT IS TOO SMALL!

As someone who encourages others to prioritize their well-being, I’m doing my best to practice what I preach. A two-week break would give me the mental and emotional space to return to my work grounded, refreshed, and ready to keep showing up for my clients.

If you’re able to contribute—or even just share—your support would mean so much. Thank you for helping me make rest possible. NO GIFT IS TOO SMALL!! Every gift matters.

With gratitude,

Tia Jay
