Caregiver Therapy in Sudbury, MA

Helping caregivers find relief from exhaustion, guilt, and overwhelm so they can care for their loved ones without neglecting themselves.

Balancing Love and Self-Care

Compassionate Support for Caregivers: Your Well-Being Matters Too

You spend your days caring for others, managing meals, medications, doctor’s appointments, and the countless little moments in between. While caregiving is an act of deep love, it can also be physically and emotionally exhausting, leading to burnout and feelings of guilt.


You give your all, leaving you feeling overwhelmed and lonely. It’s easy to put your own well-being last, but taking care of yourself isn’t selfish, it’s essential.


If you’re feeling stretched too thin, overwhelmed, or losing yourself in the process, therapy can help. Caregiver therapy provides relief, support, and strategies to set healthy boundaries, manage stress, and regain a sense of balance, so you can care for your loved one without losing yourself.

The Emotional Toll of Caregiving

What Is Caregiver Therapy?

Caregiving is a demanding and emotional role that often leads to stress, burnout, and potential self-neglect. You may feel pressure to always be available, push through exhaustion, and never ask for help, but that’s not sustainable. At Sudbury Psychology Services, I provide dedicated support for caregivers of all ages and backgrounds, including those caring for:


  • Aging parents with dementia or declining health
  • A spouse with a chronic illness or disability
  • Loved ones in palliative or hospice care
  • Sandwich caregivers, balancing care for both younger and older generations


Therapy helps you manage stress, set boundaries, and maintain your own well-being, so you can continue caring without losing yourself in the process.

Meet Dr. Lisa Taylor:

Your Caregiver Therapy Specialist

For over a decade, I’ve worked with caregivers just like you, people who love deeply but feel overwhelmed by the constant demands of caring for someone else. With a Psy.D. in Clinical Psychology and specialized training in health psychology, grief, and caregiver support, I understand the emotional and physical toll caregiving takes.


But beyond my training, I know what you need isn’t just strategies, you need someone who truly gets it. My approach is warm, compassionate, and practical. I create a space where you can talk about the exhaustion, the frustration, and even the guilt without feeling judged. My goal is to help you care for yourself just as much as you care for others.

Caregiver therapy isn’t about doing less for your loved one, it’s about helping you find balance so you can show up with more energy, patience, and peace. When you take care of yourself, you’re creating a better caregiving experience for both you and the person you love.

Your Well-Being Matters Too

You Can’t Pour from an Empty Cup

When you’re a caregiver, it’s easy to put yourself last. You tell yourself you’ll rest later, that you can push through, that asking for help is a luxury you can’t afford. But over time, exhaustion takes its toll. The longer you go without support, the harder it becomes to show up as the caregiver, partner, or family member you want to be.


Therapy helps you feel lighter, stronger, and more in control. It’s a place to breathe, process emotions, and remember that your well-being matters too. Imagine waking up rested instead of drained, setting boundaries without guilt, and finding moments of peace in your daily life.

Frequently Asked Questions About Therapy For Caregivers

Do you have a question about my services? Feel free to give me a call and also take a look at some of my frequently asked questions.

  • How do I know if I need therapy as a caregiver?

     If you’re feeling exhausted, anxious, irritable, or emotionally drained, or if caregiving is affecting your sleep, relationships, or sense of self, therapy can help you regain balance and support your well-being.

  • How can therapy help with caregiver burnout?

    Therapy provides practical strategies to manage stress, set healthy boundaries, process difficult emotions, and prevent burnout, so you can continue caring and reduce feelings of overwhelm.

  • Do you offer support for caregivers of individuals with dementia or chronic illness?

    Yes. I have experience working with caregivers of aging parents, spouses with chronic illness, and individuals in hospice or palliative care.

  • Do you offer both in-person and virtual therapy?

     Yes. I provide in-person therapy in Sudbury, MA, as well as secure virtual therapy across Massachusetts, so you can access support in a way that works for you.

  • How Much Does Therapy Cost?

    I am a private pay, out-of-network provider, and my individual fee is $250 per session. Payment is due at the time of service. While I do not accept insurance directly, I can provide a superbill for potential reimbursement through your insurance provider or HSA/FSA benefits. I recommend checking with your insurance company to see if they offer out-of-network mental health coverage. Investing in therapy means receiving personalized, high-quality care without insurance restrictions, ensuring that your treatment is tailored entirely to your needs.
