Burnout & Work Stress

You can be good at your job and still be running on empty.

Burnout can creep in slowly: dreading Sunday nights, feeling cynical about work you used to care about, snapping at people you love, or being too depleted to enjoy your time off. In a city that rewards always being on, it can be hard to tell where the pressure ends and you begin. Therapy can be a space to step back, recover, and figure out what you actually need.

We work with professionals, students, caregivers, and people in demanding roles who are feeling stretched past their limits. Our approach looks at both the outside pressures, like workload, culture, and expectations, and the inside ones, like perfectionism, people-pleasing, and the beliefs that keep you overextended. Together we focus on changes that are realistic for your life, not just advice to "take a break.”

Therapy for Burnout and Work Stress can support goals like:

  • Recognizing the signs of burnout before you hit a wall

  • Setting boundaries with work, colleagues, and your own expectations

  • Loosening perfectionism and the need to prove yourself

  • Recovering energy, focus, and a sense of enjoyment

  • Navigating difficult managers, workplace conflict, or toxic environments

  • Clarifying your values and what you want your career to look like

How we approach Burnout and Work Stress:

  • Treat burnout as a real response to real pressure, not a personal weakness

  • Look at the patterns and beliefs that make it hard to slow down

  • Focus on practical changes you can make within your actual constraints

  • Pay attention to how identity, family expectations, and money shape work stress

  • Help you make decisions about your work from clarity, not exhaustion

  • Respect your ambition while protecting your well-being
