Burnout is a state of physical, emotional and mental exhaustion that can develop after prolonged or unmanaged stress, particularly in the workplace — leaving you feeling drained, detached from your work and less able to cope with everyday responsibilities. Online therapy for burnout provides a confidential space to explore the causes of burnout, understand how stress is affecting your wellbeing, and develop practical strategies to support recovery — delivered remotely through secure video appointments.
Burnout doesn't happen overnight — it often develops gradually after prolonged periods of unmanaged stress.
Burnout doesn't affect everyone the same way — understanding the type you're experiencing can be the first step towards the right support.
Long hours, heavy workloads or ongoing pressure can contribute to emotional exhaustion, reduced motivation and feeling detached from your job.
Prioritising others’ needs over your own for long periods can lead to exhaustion, frustration or feelings of overwhelm.
Balancing childcare, work and family responsibilities can bring chronic stress beyond normal tiredness.
Academic pressure, deadlines and exams can bring low motivation, difficulty concentrating and emotional exhaustion.
Burnout usually develops over time, often the result of prolonged stress combined with a lack of opportunity to rest and regain balance.

“I didn’t realise how close to burnout I was until we started unpacking it together. I finally have boundaries at work.”
“As a new parent I felt like I was failing at everything. My coach helped me see it differently and gave me real strategies.”
“Sessions fit around my shifts, which made it possible to actually commit to the process.”
Stress is often temporary and improves once a challenging situation passes. Burnout usually develops after prolonged stress and involves ongoing exhaustion and feeling emotionally detached.
Not quite — coaching focuses on performance and habits toward goals, while therapy focuses on understanding emotional experiences and evidence-based recovery. The right option depends on your needs.
Recovery differs for everyone. Your therapist will create a personalised plan that supports steady, sustainable progress.
Yes — therapy can help you recognise early warning signs, build resilience, set boundaries and reduce the risk of future burnout.
Recovery is possible, but burnout often requires more than a few days off. If sources of chronic stress remain unchanged, symptoms may persist — identifying underlying causes matters.
The WHO recognises burnout as an occupational phenomenon from chronic workplace stress, not a medical condition — but its symptoms can significantly affect wellbeing, so speak with a professional if symptoms persist.
