Why High Functioning Individuals Experience Burnout

High functioning individuals often excel in their careers and personal lives but may struggle to prioritize self-care. Signs of burnout can include:

  • Constant fatigue or low energy

  • Difficulty concentrating

  • Feeling detached from work or personal life

  • Irritability or anxiety

  • Reduced sense of accomplishment

Without support, burnout can impact both professional performance and personal relationships. Therapy provides tools to regain control, restore balance, and cultivate sustainable success.

How Therapy Can Help You Manage Stress

Integrating Depth Perspective (Jungian) talk therapy with evidence based approaches such as EMDR, CBT, and Somatic Healing, I create a personalized plan tailored to your unique goals, personality, and lifestyle that will help you:

  • Develop effective stress management strategies

  • Set healthy boundaries in work and relationships

  • Recognize and challenge perfectionist tendencies

  • Build mindfulness and emotional regulation skills

  • Foster a sustainable lifestyle that prioritizes mental health

    • If appropriate, Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR)

    • Mindfulness Practices

    • Somatic Practices
