Stress & burnout
Burnout rarely arrives all at once. It builds when you give more than you have for too long, until rest stops helping and the things that matter start to feel like a burden. In therapy we look at what is depleting you and find ways to recover energy and boundaries without giving up on what you care about.
What therapy can help with
- Workplace burnout and overload
- Chronic stress and tension
- Life transitions and change
- Stress and anger management
- Self-worth and setting boundaries
How we work together
I work with approaches grounded in research. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) helps you recognize the patterns that keep overload going. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and mindfulness-based approaches (MBCT) support contact with what truly matters and a gentler relationship with pressure. Motivational interviewing (MI) helps you make real changes at a pace you can sustain.
The effectiveness of CBT and ACT for stress is summarized by the Canadian Psychological Association (CPA) and the American Psychological Association (APA).
