Burnout and Depression Therapy
​
Understanding the weight of what you’re carrying—and helping you rediscover what actually makes you feel like you again.
Feeling Stuck in Overdrive?
You’ve always been the person who gets things done. But now, the drive that once fueled you feels more like a cage.
​
You’re juggling everything you’re “supposed to do,” but it doesn’t feel the same. The things that once made you you—spontaneity, creativity, joy—have slipped into the background.
​
Maybe you feel overwhelmed, always running on empty. Or maybe you just feel checked out, like nothing really matters the way it used to. Even rest doesn’t help—it just feels like recovering enough to get through the next round.
​
Work feels hollow. Relationships feel distant. And you wonder, why don’t I feel like myself anymore?
Getting Your Energy, Play, and Sense of Self Back
The heaviness you’re feeling doesn’t have to be permanent. Imagine moving through your days with more clarity, energy, and ease—where burnout isn’t running the show.
​
Instead of feeling stuck or emotionally drained, you’d have space for all parts of yourself—your mind, your heart, even your body—without guilt. Instead of running on empty, you’d have room for something else: curiosity, spontaneity, and the things that actually make you feel alive.
It’s not about doing less or trying harder. It’s about reconnecting with the part of you that wants to engage with life again. The exhaustion, the push-pull of wanting more but feeling stuck—it starts to shift when you understand what you actually need.
How We’ll Work Together
Burnout isn’t just about overworking—it can also feel like disconnection, exhaustion, or even numbness. Here’s how we’ll get to the core of it:
​
✔ Tracing back when things shifted. When did things stop feeling good? What’s keeping you stuck in this cycle?
​
✔ Understanding the part of you that won’t let up. The one that keeps pushing, even when you’re drained. The one that says rest is lazy or fun is unproductive. (Spoiler: It’s not the enemy—it’s trying to protect you.)
​
✔ Untangling the conflict between your head and your heart. ​So you’re not stuck between pushing through and shutting down, but actually leading from a place that feels right.
​
✔ Reconnecting with play and creativity. When burnout (or depression) takes over, even the things you used to enjoy can feel far away. We’ll find what still sparks something in you—not forced fun, but what actually feels like yours.
What You’ll Walk Away With:
✔ Clarity on what’s fueling the exhaustion. Not just the symptoms, but what’s actually keeping you stuck.
​
✔ A way to work with your emotions instead of pushing them aside. So they don’t have to derail you or disappear just to function.
​
✔ A clearer sense of what actually matters. What’s worth your energy, and what’s just draining you?
​
✔ More alignment between the parts of you that feel in conflict. So you don’t have to choose between doing it all or feeling nothing at all.
​
✔ Practical tools to handle challenges when they show up. So when the old patterns creep in, you know exactly what to do.
​
✔ Reconnection with what actually makes you feel alive. Play, creativity, rest—not as “nice-to-haves,” but as part of what makes you you.
FAQ
01
What if I just feel numb—not stressed or overwhelmed?
Burnout doesn’t always show up as overworking—it can also feel like losing motivation, feeling disconnected, or not caring about things that used to matter.
02
What if I don’t know how to “play” anymore?
Most people don’t light up about hobbies in the way we think they should. “Just find a hobby” doesn’t really cut it—because play isn’t about hobbies. It’s about breaking the rules and doing something that feels freeing.
​​
✔ Some people feel it when they’re negotiating and scoring that deal on Marketplace—the thrill of the hunt, the strategy, the satisfaction of winning.
​
✔ Some get it from secretly taking a day off, watching trash TV, and eating forbidden desserts. That feeling of “I shouldn’t, but I am” is play.
​
✔ Some thrive on foraging for the absolute best system, the best product—the joy of researching, refining, and chasing the perfect solution.
​
💡 Play isn’t about doing something “fun.” It’s about giving yourself permission to bend the rules, break the expectations, and step into something that feels alive.
03
What if I don’t feel “burnt out enough” for therapy?
​Burnout isn’t just about working too much—it’s about feeling disconnected from yourself. If you’re stuck in cycles of exhaustion, pushing through, or feeling like you should be fine but aren’t.
