Does this sound familiar?

  • You feel exhausted, even after a weekend or holiday.
  • You’re irritable, tearful or snapping at people you love.
  • You can’t switch off, and your sleep is suffering.
  • You’ve become cynical or detached about work you used to care about.
  • You struggle to say no, and your to-do list never ends.
  • You’re getting headaches, tension or frequent illnesses.

Stress versus burnout

Short-term stress can push us to perform. Burnout happens when that pressure goes on too long without enough recovery, leaving you emotionally, mentally and physically exhausted.It isn’t a sign of weakness. Burnout often affects capable, caring people who keep going long after they should have stopped, at work, as parents or as carers.

How I can help

Together we can:
  • work out what is draining you, and what you can change
  • learn practical ways to calm your nervous system and switch off
  • set boundaries and say no without guilt
  • tackle perfectionism and people-pleasing that keep you overloaded
  • plan a realistic recovery, including returning to work if you’ve been signed off

Stress and burnout counselling FAQs

They can overlap. Burnout is usually linked to a specific source of pressure, such as work or caring, while depression tends to affect every area of life. We can explore this together, and your GP can help if you’re unsure.

Can I have sessions before or after work?

Yes. Sessions run seven days a week from 7am to 8pm UK time, including early mornings, evenings and weekends.

How many sessions will I need?

Many people feel a difference within 6 to 8 sessions. We review progress together as we go.

How much does stress and burnout counselling cost?

Sessions are from £55 for 50 minutes, with monthly packages available. Your first 30-minute chat is free.

Can I have sessions if I live outside the UK?

Yes. I work online with English-speaking adults in the UK and worldwide, including expats in Spain and Portugal, seven days a week from 7am to 8pm UK time.
