Burnout is not a busy week. It is the slow fade that leaves you waking up tired, dreading tasks you used to handle, and feeling numb even when you are supposed to be off the clock. Stress can spike and settle. Burnout lingers. It drains energy, focus, and patience, and it spills into your health and relationships.

I work with many high‑achievers, students, and caregivers who have pushed through for so long that rest no longer resets anything. Therapy helps because it gives you space to name what is happening and a plan to change it. Together we rebuild boundaries, reshape habits, and reconnect your effort to your values so your day has meaning again.

If you keep telling yourself to push a little longer and nothing changes, it may be time to do this differently. Recovery is possible and it starts with one honest conversation.
