stress + burnout support in vancouver, bc

you're not failing, you're fried.
Burnout doesn’t usually crash in overnight — it builds quietly. The exhaustion you push through. The tension you normalize. The irritability you don’t recognize as your own. The part of you that keeps performing while another part is barely holding on.
Eventually your nervous system just says, no more.
​
Stress and burnout are often your body’s way of telling you it’s been carrying too much, for too long, without enough support or space to recover.
In therapy, we slow everything down so you can actually hear what your system is trying to say.
We use IFS and parts work to understand the inner workers, overfunctioners, perfectionists, and caretaking parts that keep you going long after you’re depleted. We also make room for the exhausted, numb, or overwhelmed parts that finally need attention.
Together we rebuild capacity, boundaries, rest, and a way of living that doesn’t require constant self-sacrifice.
​
You don’t have to earn rest by burning out first.
