Burnout Counselling
Are you constantly exhausted, emotionally drained, or feeling disconnected from work or life?
If so, you may be experiencing burnout—a state of chronic stress that can affect your physical health, emotional wellbeing, relationships, and ability to function at work or home.
As a BACP-registered counsellor and psychotherapist, I specialise in helping adults and professionals recover from burnout and reconnect with a sense of calm, clarity and purpose.
What Is Burnout?
Burnout is more than just tiredness—it’s a persistent state of physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion caused by prolonged stress, often related to work or caregiving roles. According to the World Health Organization, burnout is now recognised as an “occupational phenomenon” with key symptoms:
Ongoing fatigue and lack of energy
Feeling detached, cynical or emotionally numb
Loss of motivation and productivity
Anxiety, low mood or feeling “on edge”
Trouble sleeping or switching off
Left untreated, burnout can lead to more serious issues like depression, relationship strain, and chronic illness.
How Counselling for Burnout Can Help
Burnout therapy offers a space to slow down, be heard, and explore what’s truly going on beneath the surface. In our sessions, we work collaboratively to:
Identify patterns and pressures causing your stress
Rebuild emotional regulation and resilience
Explore boundaries, perfectionism, and self-worth
Develop sustainable coping strategies
Reconnect with your values, goals, and sense of purpose
You don’t need to wait until you’re completely overwhelmed. Therapy can support you to reclaim your energy and take meaningful steps towards balance and well-being.
Why Work With Me?
With a background in both the corporate world and counselling, I understand the unique pressures faced by professionals, parents/carers, and those juggling demanding responsibilities.
My approach is:
Integrative – drawing on various therapeutic models to meet your individual needs
Relational – building a safe, trusting space where you feel supported
Humanistic – working at your pace, with compassion and curiosity
Whether you’re at breaking point or simply know something isn’t right, you don’t have to navigate this alone.
