Burnout and anxiety don’t have to become your normal.

Clinical psychotherapy for professionals experiencing burnout, anxiety, and emotional shutdown in Ontario and Quebec.

Where I can work with you:

What high-functioning burnout actually looks like

You continue to perform, meet deadlines, and carry responsibility.
At the same time, your nervous system has been under strain for too long.
Common signs include:

  • Persistent fatigue, even after sleep
  • Emotional numbness or detachment
  • Difficulty resting without guilt
  • A sense that your value depends on productivity

This is not a motivation problem. It is a regulation problem.

Important: If you’re at immediate risk of harming yourself or someone else, call 911 (or your local emergency number) or go to the nearest emergency department.

Therapy where you don’t have to “push harder”

Most professionals try to fix burnout with discipline, structure, or willpower.
That approach often makes things worse.
My clinical work integrates:

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Nervous system regulation

The goal is to restore emotional capacity, decision clarity, and internal stability — not to optimize you further.
