When Rest Isn’t Enough: A New Way to Heal from Burnout
Burnout isn't just stress—it’s a state of emotional, mental, and physical exhaustion that builds up over time, often leaving you feeling numb, irritable, overwhelmed, or disconnected from the things that once mattered. Whether you're a high-achieving professional, caregiver, or someone navigating chronic stress, EMDR therapy can offer meaningful relief. As a registered psychologist, I use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help clients move beyond burnout by addressing its root causes—not just managing symptoms. EMDR is especially effective for people who feel stuck, even after trying talk therapy, coaching, or self-care strategies that didn’t quite shift things.
In EMDR therapy for burnout, we work together to identify and resolve the deeper stressors—like unresolved work-related trauma, perfectionism, or chronic people-pleasing—that keep your nervous system in a constant state of depletion. You don’t need to revisit every memory in detail; EMDR works by helping your brain and body release emotional overload in a safe, contained way. Clients often report feeling more clear-headed, energized, and more able to set healthy boundaries within just a few sessions. Whether you’re located in Burnaby, Vancouver, or anywhere in BC through virtual sessions, support is available. Burnout recovery is possible—and it starts with healing at the nervous system level.
