Workplace burnout
This page is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If you'd like to speak to someone, Ventcare's verified therapists and counselling centres are ready to help.
What this can mean
Burnout is exhaustion from prolonged work stress — often with cynicism about work and a drop in a sense of effectiveness.
When it may help to seek support
If you're constantly drained, dreading work, or it's spilling into your health and relationships, a counsellor can help you find a sustainable way forward.
What a first session looks like
Sessions often start by mapping what's driving the exhaustion — workload, environment, or personal expectations — and what small changes are realistic.
