What we help with
Burnout & Stress therapy
When you've been running on empty for too long.
Burnout is what happens when chronic stress outpaces your capacity to recover — leaving you exhausted, detached, and running on fumes. Therapy for burnout helps you understand what depleted you, replenish your reserves, and rebuild boundaries and meaning so you're not just surviving your life. It's especially common in caregivers, healthcare workers, and helping professionals.
What it can look like
- Exhaustion that rest doesn't fix
- Cynicism, detachment, or dreading each day
- Difficulty concentrating or feeling ineffective
- Irritability, numbness, or physical symptoms
- Guilt about resting or slowing down
How therapy helps
We look at both the load and the roots — the demands wearing you down and the patterns (perfectionism, over-responsibility, old survival strategies) that keep you overextended. Together we rebuild capacity, boundaries, and a sustainable relationship with the work and people you care about.
Approaches we may draw on
Matched thoughtfully to you.
Good to know
Burnout & Stress, in brief.
Is burnout a mental health condition?
Burnout is recognized as an occupational phenomenon rather than a formal diagnosis, but it often overlaps with anxiety and depression — and it responds well to therapy.
