Overload, Burnout & Low Mood
Whether neurotypical or neurodivergent, modern life can place immense demands on our energy and mental health. When chronic stress, workplace pressures, or the constant effort to conform and “mask” build up without relief, it can lead to a state of profound depletion. This often manifests as overwhelming physical and mental exhaustion, persistent low mood, and executive inertia—leaving you feeling completely stuck, frozen, or unable to find the drive to manage daily life.

Using an adapted REBT and CBT framework, we look beneath the surface of this heavy, stuck feeling. We will work together to unpack the internalised, unrealistic demands (“I should be able to handle all of this effortlessly”) that generate deep-seated frustration, anxiety, and shame. Our therapeutic space is designed to help you safely process this overwhelm, challenge self-defeating beliefs, and build a sustainable lifestyle that respects your natural capacity, honours your boundaries, and protects your unique nervous system.
