Burnout
When You’re Tired in a Way That Sleep Doesn’t Fix
Burnout isn’t just being tired.
It’s when your mind, body, and emotions have all hit their limit and you’re still expected to keep going.
If you’re the responsible one, the helper, the overachiever, the one who “just pushes through”… burnout can creep up quietly and then suddenly feel like everything is too much.
In this space, we slow down enough to understand why you’re depleted, how you got here, and what your system actually needs to recover.
Burnout
You don’t have to keep running on empty.
Your mind, body, and spirit are allowed to rest and recover.
-
Feeling exhausted even after rest
Losing motivation or passion
Overthinking simple decisions
Irritability or emotional numbness
Constant guilt about not doing “enough”
Struggling to focus or complete tasks
Feeling detached from yourself or others
A sense of “living on autopilot”
Difficulty saying no, slowing down, or stopping
Burnout is physical, emotional, mental, and relational — not just tiredness.
-
Tired in your bones
Anxious before the day even starts
Overwhelmed by small decisions
Snappy, drained, or disconnected
Like you're carrying the entire world alone
Like you're disappearing into responsibilities
Many clients say:
“I don’t feel like myself anymore.”Burnout isn’t a personal failure… it’s a nervous system in survival mode. -
Burnout is almost always rooted in deeper patterns, like:
Chronic people-pleasing
Overresponsibility
High-functioning anxiety
Lack of boundaries
Childhood conditioning (“be good,” “don’t cause problems,” “achieve to be valued”)
Emotional labor overload
Workplace or caregiving pressure
Feeling like you must handle everything alone
In therapy, we name these patterns without shame so you can rewrite them with clarity and self-trust.
-
Understanding the root cause of your burnout
Rebuilding your baseline energy and nervous system regulation
Untangling people-pleasing and over-functioning patterns
Reducing emotional overload and decision fatigue
Strengthening boundaries (the real kind, not the scary rigid kind)
Reconnecting to desire, rest, and authentic self-expression
Creating a life rhythm that doesn’t drain you
This work is practical, emotional, and restorative — not performative self-help.
-
You stop living in constant survival mode
Your mind gets quieter
Your energy gradually returns
You feel more grounded in your body
You make decisions without spiraling
You stop abandoning your needs
You feel more like yourself again
We work at the speed your nervous system can actually hold, not the pace the world demands from you.
Burnout recovery isn’t about doing less…it’s about doing differently.

You may be ready to work on burnout if you’re noticing:
You feel overwhelmed more often than not
Life feels like a checklist instead of something you’re living
You want to change, but don’t know where to start
You’re craving space to breathe and think
You’re tired of carrying everything alone
You want to feel like you again
Therapy gives you the space to stop pushing through and actually start healing.
