You don’t have to keep pushing past your limits, and spinning your wheels without getting anywhere. Therapy for burnout helps women stop people-pleasing and over functioning, get out of survival mode, and finally feel grounded.

You want a life that feels calm, connected and sustainable, where your needs matter too, but…

→ You are starting to feel resentful and burnt out from taking care of everyone else before yourself.

→ Rest feels uncomfortable. Asking for help feels selfish. Slowing down feels like failure.

→ You feel like you can’t speak up about what you actually think or want because you are worried what people will think.

→ You replay conversations in your head, wondering if you said or did something wrong. You constantly apologize for things that aren’t your fault.

→ You feel responsible for other people’s emotions, so you smooth things over, avoid conflict, and swallow what you really think.

→ You’re not sure who you are outside of being busy, capable, and needed.

How Do You Know When You Need Therapy For Burnout?

It can be hard to know when you need therapy for over functioning because these behaviors are often reinforced by other people. It might not seem like a big problem because you are likely getting validation and praise for putting everyone else above yourself and working so hard that you break down.

However, if you put the judgment from yourself and everyone else aside, how do you feel about how you are living your life? Is what you’re currently doing working for you?

Do you feel your needs are taken care of?

Do you feel like the pace you are working at feels sustainable long term?

Do you feel like you can make a simple request or decision without overthinking it?

Do you feel like you can slow down or take a break without shaming yourself for it?

If you answered no to any of these questions, it may be a sign that therapy for anxiety and burnout could support you in creating a life that feels genuinely good on the inside, not just one that looks good on the outside.

How I can help you with Anxiety and
Burnout:

Here is what our work together will normally look like:

I get to know you better and we clarify your goals for therapy and what methods would best help. We identify the patterns that are not working for you and ways to change them.

01

I support you in learning skills to set boundaries, express your needs, and manage expectations. I will help empower you and walk you through it when it feels scary or uncomfortable.

02

If applicable, we process past experiences that may have contributed to the burnout and people-pleasing patterns, so that we can address the root of the issue. EMDR can be very useful for this!

03

You continue to crush your goals and build up confidence. We start to meet less often until you don’t need me anymore!
