Confessions of a burnt out therapist

October 21, 2023 • Karen AD • Episode 14

Burnout sucks! It literally sucked all the energy and joy out of the work I love! I am a Counsellor and this is my story of what burnout looked like for me, what helped me to get through it, and how I’m making space for myself so that I can keep gently and compassionately holding space for the hurting!

“I was like a rechargeable battery that wasn’t able to hold its charge, the energy levels were always fluctuating but not holding and building. I seemed to always be running on empty.”

If you want to go deeper I encourage you to write & answer these questions

What is the smallest action I can take today?
How can I protect my downtime?
How can I connect more regularly with the people I love most in this world?
What would give me some room to breathe?
