Burnout

Let's be real here, life is fucking stressful. From work, to families, to relationships, and everything in between, it is easy to get caught up obsessing over productivity. In a system that values overwork, it can be incredibly difficult to find balance. I am here to help you find that place where you can be both productive and at peace. It's tough, but it is possible!

Overcoming Burnout with Therapy Burnout can leave you feeling exhausted, disconnected, and overwhelmed, especially in high-pressure environments like leadership and healthcare. As a therapist, I help individuals experiencing burnout regain balance and restore their sense of purpose. Together, we’ll identify the sources of your stress, develop effective coping strategies, and help you find fulfillment again in both your personal and professional life.

Burnout is by its nature and overwhelming and isolating experience that often leaves people pointing the blame finger at themselves and feeling like failures. I have found that narrative approaches to shift the blame off the self and on to the actual nature of the problem as well as finding new and sustainable ways to provide self care to be effective in burnout recovery and prevention.

Burnout can show up in many ways, depending on the person. It might manifest as irritability, overwhelm, or feeling emotionally drained. For others, it could mean struggling with motivation or just feeling ready for a change in your personal or professional life. No matter how it presents for you, we’ll explore it together, identify your strengths (I promise you have them!), and develop a plan to help you break free from that feeling of being stuck.

From a therapy standpoint, I work with burnout by helping clients identify the changes they would like to see, empowering and practicing advocacy, and using coping strategies in the interim.

Burnout is a serious condition that can lead to physical and emotional exhaustion. Working in the medical field for over 30 years, I understand the unique challenges that can contribute to burnout, especially in demanding occupations.

I treat a number of fellow clinicians and medical professionals who are experiencing compassion fatigue. I also work with those in creative fields who are experiencing professional burnout and blocks.

Much of my work in supporting you in your recovery from burnout centers around developing self-acceptance and self-compassion, sustainable self-care, boundary setting, and conscious engagement with self, others, and the world.

Burnout is a state of complete mental, physical, and emotional exhaustion. If you are experiencing burnout, you may notice it is difficult to engage in activities you normally find meaningful. You may no longer care about the things that are important to you or experience an increasing sense of hopelessness.

Working long hours, being the go-to at work, and taking care of everyone's needs puts you on a one way road to burnout. Burnout is ripe with anxiety, depression, insomnia, and crabbiness! It's not a fun space to be in. If this is where you find yourself after years of caretaking for others, being a breadwinner, household CEO, or over-achieving superstar, it's time for support. Take one hour a week for yourself and get the support you need. Let's regroup together. It's better on the other side!

Usually we choose our jobs because we enjoy something about it. Burnout takes that joy, and dulls it, until we lose our passion and drive, and just feel drained and exhausted. It's a slow process, that leaves us suddenly realizing we have to change something, but left unsure what happened and what to change. When we work on burnout through therapy, we explore what's causing this feeling, and how we can create changes in meaningful and long-term ways.

I offer empathetic support for clients experiencing burnout. Together, we explore sources of stress, set boundaries, and prioritize self-care. Through tailored strategies and compassionate guidance, we work towards restoring balance, resilience, and a renewed sense of purpose.

I have experience working with burnout with the use of art. I have worked to develop a program that seeks to alleviate the symptoms of burnout.

I am passionate about working with helping professionals and others in addressing burnout and compassion fatigue in their work.

I have been through burnout myself and found a way to work through the issue. We must work on balance in our life to include play and creativity. I can help with finding ways to balance your life and learn to say "no" when necessary. Burnout is a big problem in this country and we have prioritized work over connection with others, remembering to play and finding creative outlets.
