You Can't Think Your Way Out of Burnout
Burnout lives in your body, not just your mind. Through nervous system healing, release the exhaustion you've been carrying and rediscover what feeling alive feels like.
You're Not Alone
Does This Sound Familiar?
You wake up exhausted, even after a full night's sleep
Your mind races constantly, making it impossible to truly relax
You feel irritable and snap at the people you love most
Simple tasks feel overwhelming and insurmountable
You've lost touch with activities that once brought you joy
Physical symptoms like headaches, tension, or digestive issues have become your constant companions
Burnout isn't just exhaustion—it's your nervous system stuck in overdrive
Somatic work helps you release the accumulated tension stored in your nervous system, teaching you to recognize early warning signs and develop sustainable practices for regulation and resilience.
Understanding
What is Burnout?
Burnout happens when your nervous system has been running on high alert for too long. Your body's stress response was designed for short bursts of activation followed by rest and recovery. Modern life often doesn't allow for that recovery.
When you push through exhaustion repeatedly, your system adapts by staying mobilized. The energy meant for emergencies becomes your baseline. Eventually, your reserves deplete and even small demands feel overwhelming.
This isn't a character flaw or lack of willpower—it's a physiological state. Your nervous system has learned that rest isn't safe, that you must keep going no matter what.
In somatic work, we help your nervous system remember how to truly rest. By completing the stress cycles that got interrupted, your body can finally discharge the accumulated tension and return to a state where energy naturally replenishes.

Questions & Answers
Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about somatic work and how I can help.
How is somatic work different from traditional approaches to burnout?
Most approaches focus on time management, boundaries, or mindset shifts. Somatic work addresses burnout at its root—in your nervous system. By helping your body discharge stored stress and relearn how to rest, we create lasting change rather than temporary relief.
How quickly will I notice results?
Many clients experience some relief in the very first session—often their first taste of genuine rest in years. More lasting changes typically develop over 8-12 sessions as your nervous system rewires.
I've tried everything for my burnout. Will this be different?
If you've tried managing burnout through willpower, vacations, or purely cognitive approaches without lasting success, somatic work offers a fundamentally different approach. We work with your body's innate wisdom to create sustainable change.
What are your fees?
My fee is $175 per 60-minute session. Longer sessions are available and prorated accordingly. I reserve a limited number of sliding scale slots for individuals who need nervous system healing but face financial barriers. If cost is a concern, please reach out to discuss current availability. I don't accept insurance.
