EDHA concern guide
Stress & Burnout
Stress can build gradually until work, caregiving, study or personal responsibilities feel unmanageable. Burnout often involves exhaustion, detachment and reduced effectiveness.
How counselling may help
- Clarify sources of pressure and what can be changed
- Build boundaries and recovery routines
- Develop coping and prioritisation strategies
- Address perfectionism, guilt or over-responsibility
When other care may also be appropriate
Persistent physical symptoms, severe sleep disruption or significant functional decline may also warrant medical evaluation alongside psychological support.
