Most clients complete the core of the programme in 12 weeks.

Here’s how it’s designed to work:

🧠 Stage 1: Put out the fire
We stabilise your nervous system, reduce symptom intensity, and stop the constant feeling of overwhelm. This is about finding relief – quickly and safely.

🏗 Stage 2: Rebuild capacity
Once the crisis settles, we increase your ability to handle stress without collapsing. You’ll learn how to regulate in real time, not just cope after the fact.

🔍 Stage 3: Find the source
We identify the deeper patterns – work dynamics, identity pressure, past experiences – that caused burnout in the first place, so it doesn’t keep repeating.

Our pay-as-you-go monthly style structure gives you complete flexibility on how long you want to engage in 1:1 sessions.

We hold our sessions online via Google Meets, the links are forwarded weekly prior to each session, and they’ll look like this in your inbox every week:

Burnout isn’t just “feeling stressed.” It’s a recognised occupational syndrome (WHO) involving exhaustion, detachment, and reduced effectiveness.

Clinical frameworks (ICD-11, DSM-5) help define it, but your lived experience matters just as much. If you feel depleted, stuck, and unlike yourself, that’s data too.

Yes, completely.

In short:
Your work stays between us.

Short answer: It’s a burnout recovery method that uses the parts of each that actually work, and drops the rest.

…vs. traditional therapy

• Focus: Therapy often explores why you feel this way. We focus on why it’s still happening, and how to stop the cycle.
• Pace: Weekly sessions work for insight. Burnout recovery needs frequency to interrupt stress physiology.
• Structure: Many therapies are open-ended. This work follows a clear recovery arc: stabilise → rebuild → integrate.
• Outcome: Insight alone doesn’t regulate a nervous system. Burnout resolves through consistent, embodied change.

…vs. coaching

• Depth: Coaching focuses on goals and behaviour. Burnout lives in the nervous system, not a to-do list.
• Safety: Coaching isn’t designed for trauma, panic, dissociation, or collapse states. This is expert-driven stress containment.
• Risk: Pushing goals without regulation often reinforces burnout patterns.

…the burnout solution

• Psychotherapy-led: This 1:1 programme is led by a BACP-accredited psychotherapist specialising in burnout, not just a generic executive coach.
• Recovery-focused: Not generic talk therapy, everything we do serves nervous system stability, reducing your chronic stress patterns and building personal capacity.
• High-frequency: Twice-weekly 1:1 sessions to interrupt chronic stress loops, over once a week talking therapy.
• Integrated: Mind, body, behaviour, work patterns – we treat everything related to burnout as a focus.
• Designed for burnout: High-functioning people who can’t “think” their way out of their suffering. We accept that you function differently and start where you’re at.

🎓 The research is clear: higher-intensity sessions (twice weekly) leads to faster improvement, sustainable symptom reduction, and more durable change than once-weekly sessions, especially for chronic stress and burnout.

👥 Twice-weekly sessions allows us to:

• Reduce symptoms faster, by integrating consistent nervous system regulation symptoms may improve up to 50% faster.
• Leverage stress reduction with co-regulation through the therapeutic relationship, which accounts for ~30% of treatment outcome improvement (a fancy way saying our space together teaches your nervous system to feel safe).
• Create longer-lasting recovery with higher session frequency being linked to lower relapse rates and better long-term functioning because change is integrated early, before old patterns reassert themselves.

This isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing the right amount, at the right intensity, so your burnout cycle actually changes.

No. This isn’t a course, and it’s not about adding more to your plate.

🔥 Burnout happens because you’ve been doing too much, for too long. Recovery works in the opposite direction. Our focus is on removing effort, not adding tasks.

📝 There’s no homework, no worksheets, and no modules to “keep up with.” We work together to integrate regulation into what you’re already doing, so recovery happens inside real life, not on top of it.

🧘 You’ll learn a small number of practical regulation tools early on, but they’re designed to be used in the moment, not practiced endlessly. The goal is simple: do less, regulate more, and let capacity return naturally.

This isn’t about trying harder.
It’s about changing how your system operates, so effort stops being the problem.

🏢 Work stress is real. Deadlines, pressure, poor leadership and crunch cycles absolutely contribute to burnout.

But here’s the uncomfortable truth most people discover the hard way:
if it’s not this job, it’s usually the next one.

Burnout isn’t caused by a single workplace, it’s driven by repeatable stress patterns: how you respond to pressure, responsibility, urgency, expectations, recovery and even the types of jobs you select.

This program puts a focus on your professional life by:

• Identifying which parts of your work life are genuinely unsustainable
• Differentiating external work demands from internal stress cycles
• Clarifying how your nervous system responds in the workplace 

We can’t rewrite your company’s wellbeing policies but what we can change is how your nervous system responds to work.

Most clients notice meaningful shifts within the first few weeks, usually more calm, clarity, and fewer spikes of overwhelm.

🗓️ Around the 90-day mark, many start to feel consistently more regulated and able to handle pressure without tipping into burnout.

Some people work with me for the recommended 12 weeks to stabilise and reset.
Others choose to continue for many years as their work and life evolve.

👉 The monthly, pay-as-you-go structure gives you full control, we move at the pace your nervous system actually needs.

You’ll come out of this with more than relief, you’ll have lasting change you can feel and use every day:

• Regulate in real time ⏱️
  You’ll calm stress as it happens — not just “manage later.” You’ll interrupt panic, tension and overwhelm before they take hold.
• Down-regulate your nervous system 🧠
  Your body and mind stop living in survival mode. You respond with clarity, not adrenaline and exhaustion.
• Understand your stress patterns 🧩
  You’ll see exactly what drives your burnout — how your history, expectations, roles and responses combine to create stress loops.
• Shift from reaction to choice 🎯
  Instead of automatically pushing through, you’ll choose responses that protect your energy and capacity.
• Reconnect with confidence and clarity ✨
  You’ll think more clearly, make decisions with ease, and feel steady rather than depleted.
• Integrate lasting changes into life 🧱
  This isn’t temporary relief. You’ll embed new, life-supporting patterns that stick even under pressure.

In short:
You won’t just feel better, you’ll operate better in work, relationships and life without burning out again.

Because this isn’t generic weekly talk therapy – it’s intensive, outcome-focused burnout recovery.

With twice-weekly 1:1 sessions, real-time messaging support, and a structured approach designed to change stress patterns fast.

👉 Burnout requires frequency, continuity and containment, not a once-a-week check-in. This model exists to shorten recovery time and produce lasting change, not prolong treatment.
