Therapy For Burnout
For anyone feeling drained and stuck in overdrive.
In-person therapy in Reno and telehealth throughout California & Nevada
Do you keep going, even when you’re running on empty?
You may have never even felt like anything was wrong. Maybe it seems normal to be on edge, juggling a million tasks, putting everyone else first. Daily anxiety is just a part of life, right?
That is, until something changes. Or we wake up.
Marital stress, an aging parent, unexpected job loss. Suddenly, the system starts to crack. You notice exhaustion, irritability, or that you can’t keep up the same way anymore.
Burnout is a signal that you’ve been carrying too much for too long. Therapy can help you untangle the pressure, reclaim your energy, find a sense of peace, and learn to ask for what you’ve been needing all along.
What We Work On:
Burnout, chronic stress, and overwhelm
People-pleasing
Over-functioning
Caregiving
Setting boundaries
Rediscovering your values & your voice
Neurodivergent Burnout
This goes beyond being “really tired.” It comes from chronic stress caused by masking, executive-function overload, sensory and emotional overwhelm, and navigating a world built for neurotypical patterns.
Recovery isn’t just rest. It’s about:
Recognizing how masking, sensory overload, and executive-function challenges drive burnout
Honoring your nervous system’s pace
Reducing overstimulation and mental overwhelm with practical strategies
Reclaiming energy, focus, and calm in daily life
Cultivating self-compassion around boundaries and limits
“What’s the greater risk? Letting go of what people think – or letting go of how I feel, what I believe, and who I am?”
Brené Brown
What Changes in Therapy:
Learning how to complete the stress cycle (teaching your body to release stored tension)
Recognizing that “busy = worthy” is a lie
Naming the emotions you’ve been stuffing, so they don’t run the show.
Releasing generational patterns of over-giving and caretaking
Stepping out of the performance and perfectionism loop
Cultivating compassion and boundary-confidence
Feeling less like you have to hold it all together
