How Therapy for Burnout and Work Stress Works
Let's connect you with the right Anxiety therapist
Work stress is more than just long hours or tight deadlines. When the demands of your job leave you feeling emotionally drained, disconnected, or unable to recover, you may be experiencing burnout. At Here Counseling, our therapists in Los Angeles provide compassionate, evidence-based therapy to help you heal from burnout and restore balance to your life.
You don’t have to keep pushing through the exhaustion alone. With the right support, it’s possible to regain energy, clarity, and a sense of purpose.
What Is Burnout?
Burnout isn’t the same as stress. Stress often involves too much — too many responsibilities, too much pressure. Burnout, on the other hand, feels like not enough. You may feel numb, unmotivated, or hopeless about work.
The World Health Organization defines burnout as a syndrome resulting from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed. Common signs include:
- Emotional exhaustion that doesn’t improve with rest
- Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
- Cynicism or detachment from work
- Loss of motivation or sense of accomplishment
- Physical symptoms like headaches, muscle tension, or insomnia
Left unaddressed, burnout can affect not only your career but also your health, relationships, and overall well-being.
Why Choose Here Counseling for Burnout Therapy in Los Angeles?
What to Expect in Therapy
Your first session is a chance for your therapist to really listen. Together, you’ll explore what has led to your burnout and begin identifying the changes you want to make.
- Early sessions: relief-focused tools to manage stress day to day
- Mid-stage: addressing root causes, exploring patterns of perfectionism, people-pleasing, or self-criticism
- Ongoing work: building resilience, integrating new habits, and cultivating sustainable balance
Over time, therapy can help you feel more energized, more connected, and more hopeful about your life and work.

FAQs
How long does burnout therapy usually take?
It depends on your needs. Some people find relief in a few months, while others benefit from longer-term support to address deeper patterns.

Yes. We provide HIPAA-compliant online therapy throughout California, in addition to in-person sessions in Los Angeles.
Do you accept insurance or offer sliding scale?
We are a private pay practice with a range of fee options, including some low-fee availability. Our Care Coordinator can guide you through payment options.
