High Pressure Careers and Professional Burnout
Work related stress is often dismissed as "part of the job." Many of us spend the majority of our waking hours at the work place and "moving up the ladder" has been ingrained. High pressure careers can lead to feelings of burnout and when this happens it is difficult to find joy in getting up in the morning. Feelings of failure, lack of accomplishment, exhaustion and imposter syndrome can takeover.
Symptoms of burnout can be wide ranging and include detachment and loss of joy in work, feelings of isolation, irritability and strained relationships. Aside from physical and mental exhaustion one may begin to neglect personal needs and withdraw. Feelings of helplessness, loss of motivation and increasing cynicism are also signs of burnout. I am here to help you find meaning, joy and the tools to cope in your career or look at other possibilities.

One of the benefits of self-pay is that your records are not handed over to your insurance company or stored in your employer’s EHR. All services are provided through Telehealth and private pay offers enhanced confidentiality. Telehealth allows me to provide counseling and therapy to my clients via live video conferencing.
