As a fellow therapist I agree so much about firm boundaries. I have a hard rule that I leave every day at 3:45 and NEVER check emails or my work phone and don't have emails connected to my personal phone. It helps me a lot. My clients know my hours and who to contact if there's an emergency after hours. I always give them the analogy of masks on the airplane, us as therapists HAVE to put our mask on FIRST (self care) so we can recharge to care for them! 💙Also soooo agree about planning things to look forward too! Thankfully I'm a school based therapist so there are designated breaks interwoven in and I always do fun things on those breaks, along with downtime too of course! Love being school based!
"You might stay up late to avoid starting the next day..." "...I feel like you're trying to tell me something 🙃" For real tho, I subscribed after your Encanto video. Can't wait for more!
Hi Steph! This is a wonderful video. I am currently working on my master's in clinical mental health counseling and am searching the internets for ideas for my group counseling class... my topic is burnout/work-life balance, so this video definitely helped to kind of give me a starting place for planning my hour long discussion (oof!). Thanks for posting this video! :)
I would love to see a video about compassionate fatigue 🙏🏼 I stumbled across your channel and I’m so glad I did. Your videos are so good and to the point and enlightening way👌🏼
Wow this was so helpful! I never considered staying up late as a sign of burnout but it makes so much sense!! I told my entire master's cohort about you and your videos because they have been life changing!! Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video. I’m a med student. My native language is not english so sorry in advance for any grammar mistakes! This video helped me so much to calm me down and organize my study hours better. It was very direct and easy for me to understand (it also helped me a lot to practice my english). Again, thank you so much! I would love to watch a video from you about compassion fatigue.
Thank you so much for this video, I sooo needed to see it! I'm a newer therapist who is almost 50. I can definitely feel the compassion fatigue. My biggest issue is that I am so mentally exhausted that I just don't want to speak to anyone at the end of my day. Any ideas how to deal with that? Thank you again!!
Sorry! Unrelated, but I love that shirt and hair. How do you wear your natural hair and style it so you feel pretty. Sometimes my hair is too much and I end up feeling really ugly. Specifically when I’m getting burnt out.
My thing is being burnt out at home. I have way to much that stresses me out. I love my job and wish to never leave by the end of the day. But when I'm home I want to go back to work. The weekend (my off days feel so long. But the week days fly.

Very helpful to see others can relate. I have been a counselor for over twenty nine years and am just tired of all the mental health stuff every day.

Hey Staph Anya! Loved this! Setting boundaries, especially for a people pleaser, is easier said than done but these tips are very helpful. Thank you!

Boundaries are big in this field . Are field does have systemic issues occurring that lead to burnout .
Great advice cause sometimes you’re burnt out and don’t know it.
