Burnout and stress can make you feel
you are just surviving – and not thriving
Learn how to rebalance, cope
better, and adapt to life’s curveballs
If you feel that your work is a main source of stress in your life, that you are finding less and less joy in your profession, and are struggling with feelings of overwhelm, fatigue, or dread, it may mean you are dealing with burnout or chronic stress.
Typical symptoms of those conditions are:
Unwillingness to go to work
Significantly lowered work performance
Constant feeling of fatigue
Feeling drained, both emotionally and physically
Struggling to complete tasks efficiently and on time
Irritability or a shorter fuse than normal
Avoidance of routine tasks
Overwhelm and decision fatigue
As you can see, these symptoms can reach beyond your work and can affect your life outside of work. Thankfully, you don’t have to deal with this challenge on your own; let me help!
You don’t have to struggle alone
with burnout and chronic stress
You can recover from burnout and learn
how to manage stress in a healthy way
Through therapy, you will learn how to prioritize your psychological well-being, cope better with stress (work and non-work-related), and find a balance that works for you. The goal is for you to regain stability and perspective that allows you to thrive both personally and professionally, rather than just getting through the day.
When working with clients dealing with burnout, I use various therapeutic approaches and modalities, such as Eye Movement Reprocessing and Desensitization (EMDR), parts work, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and stress management techniques so that they can identify what is contributing to the burnout and stress (and perpetuating it over time), barriers to recovery, and how to overcome those barriers.
I will also work with you to develop resiliency skills, empowering you to bounce back from setbacks, adapt to change, and face life’s everyday stressors and curveballs with courage and greater ease.

Hello, I’m Megan, and I’ll be happy to assist you on your journey to a more balanced, more engaged life.
Being a lawyer turned therapist myself I know firsthand about work-related stress and burnout.

I know how stressful and frustrating work can be (while also feeling like there is nothing you can do about it). I don’t want you to feel stuck anymore; together, we can work towards change.
When working with me, you enter a safe and supportive space where you can talk about your experiences, understand them better, and find a way to a more purposeful, balanced, and authentic life for you.
