BURNOUT & CHRONIC WORK STRESS

When pushing through isn't helping anymore.

I help adults navigate burnout and chronic work stress so they can act according to their values and regain a sense of steadiness in their work and lives.

SOUND FAMILIAR?

For many people is starts to feel like this

The exhaustion that doesn't lift

Waking up tired, tense, and already overwhelmed — before the day has even begun. Sleep isn't restful. The stress won't stop. You keep thinking next week will be better, but it isn't.

The freeze you can't explain

You stare at emails and feel overwhelmed before you've even started. You've been avoiding certain tasks for days, maybe weeks. The panic that hits when you finally open them is starting to scare you.

The work that's changed

The job you once loved feels colder now. All metrics and headcount, no humans. You used to feel proud of how you showed up — creative, invested, supportive. Now part of you is already checking out.

The body that's keeping score

Headaches, joint pain, chest pain, tension that won't let go. You're snappier than you want to be, then sit with the guilt. Your body hurts in ways that don't make sense.

You know something has to give. You just don't know what, or how.

WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR

You want to feel like yourself again.

Not the version who's barely coping. The one who's steady, clear-headed, and acting on what matters most.

Sleep through the night and wake up feeling rested, not already behind.

Have hard conversations that actually lead to change at work and at home.

Feel like you're contributing again without burning yourself out to do it.

Redefine what success means without feeling like you're failing for needing something different.

HOW IT WORKS

Therapy for burnout isn't positive thinking or quick fixes

It's about making space to look at what's really happening — physically, emotionally, and in the systems you're part of.

Start with what's immediate

The exhaustion, the panic, the body tension. We find ways to steady the ground without pretending you can self-care your way out.

Look at the deeper patterns

The pressure to keep proving yourself. The story you inherited about success. The part that's scared to slow down and desperate to.

Build something that lasts

Redefine what success means to you. Make space for a version that doesn't cost you your health. And follow through on it.

Over time, therapy can help you:

Sleep better and wake up more rested.

Say what you need without it becoming an argument.

Notice work stress without chest pain or shutdown.

Follow through on tasks you've been avoiding.

Face pressure without feeling like the only option is to push harder.

Redefine success on your own terms.
