I am Dr. Carmy
I am a mental health expert, speaker, and advocate with a focus on self-awareness, trauma recovery, and emotional empowerment. As the founder of Destined Horizons, I help therapists, leaders, and other high-empathy professionals prevent burnout, restore their energy, and stay connected to the work they love.
Whether I am mentoring new clinicians, supporting burned-out therapists, or speaking on stage, my goal is to create spaces where helping professionals can pause, breathe, and rise stronger.
My work is about protecting your well-being so you can keep doing the meaningful work you are called to do.

Healing the Healer
For a long time, I believed healing meant pushing through. Showing up. Being strong. Until the exhaustion grew louder than my excuses. Healing the Healer was born in that quiet reckoning, an honest look at what it means to care for others while remembering how to care for yourself.
This is not a guide or workbook. It is a story, a reflection on burnout, recovery, and the slow work of returning to balance. Each chapter is both confession and invitation, meant to remind you that even those who hold space for others need space of their own.
If you have ever felt the weight of compassion fatigue or wondered how to keep showing up without losing yourself, this is for you.

The Intentional Start
You show up for others every day, often without pausing to check in with yourself. Over time, the pace, the pressure, and the emotional weight can make you feel disconnected from your own needs.
The Intentional Start gives you a soft container to return to yourself.
Thirty-one guided days.
Clear daily prompts.
Weekly grounding.
Space to breathe again.
