STRESS & BURN OUT

When doing it all feels like too much.

You’re juggling work, family, and everything in between — trying to keep up, stay productive, and be there for others. But lately, it feels like your energy is gone; even small tasks fill you with dread.

You might be exhausted, irritable, or feeling disconnected from yourself and what used to bring you joy. Burnout doesn’t mean you’re weak; it means you’ve been strong for too long without enough support.

Burnout is more than just being "tired". 

What can stress & burnout feel like?

  • Feeling constantly tired or drained

  • Dread or anxiety about daily tasks, responsibilities, or work

  • Difficulty concentrating and or making decisions

  • Emotional numbness or irritability

  • Feeling overwhelmed or “checked out”

  • Trouble sleeping or relaxing

  • Physical symptoms like headaches or muscle tension

  • Feeling disconnected from work or relationships

Why does this happen?

Burnout is the result of sustained stress, pressure to perform, and often a lack of boundaries or self-care — sometimes compounded by cultural or family expectations to always push harder.

It’s your mind and body signaling they need a break, but many people push through anyway, which only deepens the exhaustion.

Ready to break the cycle?

Therapy offers a safe place to pause, process, and rebuild your energy on your own terms.

Together, we’ll explore what’s driving your stress and burnout, identify patterns that keep you stuck, and develop practical strategies to protect your well-being.

With support, you can begin to:

  • Feel more balanced and present in your daily life

  • Recognize and respect your limits without guilt

  • Reconnect with what energizes and inspires you

  • Build boundaries that protect your peace and time

  • Approach work and relationships with renewed clarity and calm
