What happens when a therapist hits a wall? Have you ever personally gone through burnout? How do you get yourself out of it?  In this episode, I open up about something that many therapists experience but don't often talk about—burnout. I hit a point in my career where I felt like I'd hit a wall. I was exhausted in a way that rest couldn't fix, and I started to notice that even getting up for work felt overwhelming. Sitting with clients—something that once brought me purpose—began to feel heavy and joyless. I didn't recognize myself, and I started wondering: Do I still love this work? Who am I if I don't? It wasn't just stress or being overworked—it was something deeper. I realized I was burned out, and that was a scary realization. I had spent years becoming a therapist, building a practice, and here I was feeling numb and disconnected from the very thing I once felt so called to do. What helped me shift was reaching out for help. I opened up to a colleague and finally said out loud, "I don't know if I can keep doing this." That moment of honesty led me to get support for myself, including seeing a therapist. I started the work of rebuilding—not just my routine, but my connection to myself and to my work. Thanks for listening, I'd love to connect with you over on Facebook. SHOW NOTES AND RESOURCES: Click here
