Burnout therapy is a form of stress management therapy that helps address chronic stress, emotional exhaustion, and overwhelm. I use a holistic, mind–body approach that explores how burnout shows up in your thoughts, emotions, body, and daily life. Therapy may include mindfulness-based techniques, nervous system regulation, values exploration, movement, breathwork, and increased self-awareness. The goal is to help you recover from burnout while building sustainable habits that support long-term well-being.

Stress is typically short-term and related to specific pressures or demands. While stress can feel overwhelming, people often still feel motivated and able to recover once the stressor is removed. Burnout, on the other hand, develops from prolonged, unmanaged stress and leads to emotional exhaustion, reduced motivation, and a sense of detachment or numbness. Burnout affects both mental and physical health and often requires intentional support, lifestyle changes, and therapy to fully recover.

Finding the right burnout therapist depends on your preferences and what helps you feel supported. Clients who tend to work well with me are reflective, come to sessions with a general sense of what they want to focus on, and are open to trying new approaches both in and outside of therapy. They value honesty, self-awareness, and collaboration, and understand that meaningful work doesn’t always have to feel heavy or serious. I use humor when appropriate to help clarify insights and make the process feel more human. Telehealth sessions are relaxed and real—so occasional background noise, including a barking dog, is part of the experience.

Getting started with burnout therapy begins with a brief consultation. Click the button below to complete a consultation request form, and we’ll schedule a 10-minute call to review logistics and make sure we’re a good fit to work together. This is also a chance for you to ask any questions specific to your experience.

If we decide to move forward, we’ll schedule your first 45-minute therapy session. All intake paperwork will be sent to you electronically before your appointment. I offer a fully paperless, secure online practice, with all forms and communication managed through a confidential client portal.
