Mariah J. Zur

My approach is steady, honest, and built for people who’ve carried too much for too long. I work with the overwhelmed, the over-functioning, and the shut-down parts so you don’t have to hold it all alone. We slow down, name the real stuff, and create space for relief, clarity, and a steadier way of being.

Together we’ll sort through what’s been weighing on you, calm the parts that are exhausted from holding everything, and create steadier ways to move through your days. We’ll slow the chaos, get honest about what you need, and build a life that feels more grounded and less survival-mode.

My clients describe me as warm, real, and steady — someone who names the truth kindly, cuts through the noise, and helps them feel safe enough to be honest. They say I hold space with compassion, challenge them when it matters, and make the hard work feel doable, not overwhelming.

I specialize in working with people who look put-together on the outside but are overwhelmed, anxious, or shut down on the inside. Folks who carry the mental load, minimize their needs, and feel exhausted from being “the strong one.” If you’re tired of surviving alone, you’re in the right place.

I became a therapist because I know what it’s like to navigate life without the support you needed. I wanted to create the kind of space I never had—steadfast, honest, and safe enough to tell the real story. Helping people reclaim themselves feels like the work I was meant to do.

I focus on trauma, nervous-system healing, and getting people out of survival mode. My work is direct, compassionate, and real. I offer weekly therapy and trauma intensives designed to go deeper, faster—so you can feel relief, clarity, and a steadier way forward.
