High-Functioning Anxiety: When Burnout Hides Behind Success in Las Vegas

Are you constantly busy but quietly overwhelmed? You might be experiencing high-functioning anxiety—a form of anxiety that’s often overlooked because it hides behind achievement, ambition, and a busy schedule.

In a fast-paced city like Las Vegas, where success is often measured by how much you can juggle, it’s easy to miss the signs of burnout until your body or mind forces you to stop. At Thrive Mental Health Las Vegas, I help individuals who are silently struggling with anxiety, burnout, and perfectionism, especially those who appear “fine” on the outside but feel anything but inside.

What is High-Functioning Anxiety?

High-functioning anxiety looks like this:

  • You’re always busy, but you feel drained all the time.

  • You constantly worry about falling behind—even when you're ahead.

  • You have a hard time relaxing, even on vacation.

  • You thrive on external validation but struggle with internal self-worth.

  • You say “yes” to everything and then feel resentful, exhausted, or stuck.

Sound familiar? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to keep pushing through silently.

Therapy for High-Functioning Anxiety in Las Vegas

At my private practice in Summerlin, I offer both in-person and virtual therapy sessions across Nevada. My approach blends EMDR, DBT-informed tools, parts work, and mindfulness-based strategies to help you:

  • Regulate your nervous system

  • Break free from perfectionism and self-criticism

  • Build healthier boundaries and work-life balance

  • Reconnect with your values and your sense of self

You don’t have to wait for a crisis to get support. Therapy can help you thrive—not just survive.

Let's Work Together

Whether you're a busy professional, parent, student, or entrepreneur in Las Vegas, your mental health matters. Therapy is a space to pause, process, and get real with yourself in a way that feels supportive—not judgmental.

If you’re ready to feel less anxious and more in control, reach out. I offer individual therapy for adults and teens, with both weekday and evening appointments available.
