Stress, Burnout & Overwhelm

Life can be a lot. Work demands, caregiving, life transitions can all pile up until you’re exhausted, discouraged, or burned out. At Ross Psychology, we provide support in London, Ontario to help you reset, re-evaluate, and reclaim your well-being.

What stress and burnout can look like:

  • Dragging yourself out of bed each morning with a feeling of dread

  • Difficulty relaxing, guilt about rest, or always being in “go” mode

  • Feeling chronically overwhelmed, irritable, and impatient

  • Collapsing at the end of the day, scrolling mindlessly on your phone or staring at the tv

  • Headache, fatigue, stomach issues, and trouble sleeping

Our Approach

  • Regulation Skills & Nervous System Work:

    Help your body calm down, reduce physiological stress.

  • Mindfulness, Rest & Recovery Planning:

    Learn what your mind and body need for true rest and how to find recovery in the middle of your busy life.

  • Boundary Setting & Role Prioritizing:

    Identify what is essential, what’s optional, and saying no where needed.

  • CBT & Acceptance-Based Approaches:

    Shift unhelpful thinking, end people-pleasing, and manage perfectionism.

What to Expect

Our stress and burnout recovery therapy includes:

  • An exploration of your current situation to understand the stressors and demands you’re facing

  • Tools you can start to use immediately to help your mind and body rest and reset

  • Trouble-shooting problematic situations and barriers to change that keep you stuck

  • Help with re-aligning with your values so you can feel good about yourself and your life
