Therapy For Burnout
Online therapy across New York State
Therapy for women in New York who do it all
Does prioritizing yourself feel impossible or selfish?
You wear 100 hats on any given day including employee/employer, partner, sister, best friend, daughter, peacekeeper, and the one who will send food back when the order gets messed up. You may be used to figuring things out on your own and pride yourself on your independence. But no one prepared you for the physical and emotional toll being everything for everyone would take on you. Now you feel like a terrible employee, parent, partner, and friend. Nothing you do feels good enough. Asking for help feels like a burden and a sign of weakness.
You may also struggle to feel present and enjoy the moment. Stress and overthinking are your new normal. Taking a break or relaxing feels uncomfortable to you. You may fear letting others down and are now caught up in a people-pleasing cycle. And unfortunately, on top of all of this, you’re dealing with burnout. I get it. I’ve been there. If only it were as easy as taking deep breaths and taking a yoga class.
What is Burnout?
It is more than just feeling tired and overwhelmed; it's a state of emotional, mental, and physical exhaustion that can impact every aspect of your life. I specialize in addressing the emotional toll related to:
-
Hating your job was never a part of your job description. Heavy workloads, tight deadlines, and unrealistic performance targets negatively Impact your mental wellbeing. You may struggle to disconnect from your work responsibilities while maintaining boundaries between your professional and personal life. Unfortunately, this has taken a toll on your physical and emotional health. Together, I will help you overcome the challenges of a demanding work environment, establish boundaries, and develop effective coping strategies for your career burnout while building a healthier work-life balance.
-
Calling all those who provide care to others (i.e., parents, adult children who care for their parents, teachers, therapists, medical providers, and more)! Navigate the emotional toll of caregiving, establish self-care practices, and find support in managing your responsibilities.
Perfectionism, high levels of self-criticism, and difficulty saying “no” to additional responsibilities can predispose us to burnout. Learn how to check your inner self-critic, say “no” as a complete sentence, and maintain healthy boundaries so that you can show up fully for yourself and those who need you most.
-
Life can get unexpectedly (or expectedly) hard and it’s easy to put our needs on the back burner. However, this is the perfect way to weaken our resilience to stress. Address burnout stemming from personal life challenges, relationship stress, and pesky lifestyle habits. Learn healthier habits (e.g., healthy sleep habits and effective communication skills) to revamp your lifestyle while gaining tools to rediscover joy and balance.
