Burnout and Work Stress

Burnout appears as a result of long-lasting work stress, with loss of energy, distance from work and a decline in the sense of achievement. A holiday does not fully cure it; the way of working has to change.

What happens in therapy?

You clarify stress sources and personal values, practise communication skills such as boundary setting and workload negotiation and build rest and relaxation routines. If needed, a supporting note is prepared for a talk with the workplace.
