You might be...
- Dreading work you used to genuinely care about
- Running on caffeine, adrenaline, and sheer willpower
- Feeling cynical, checked out, or numb during the workday

Burnout is common across West LA's fast-paced industries, from entertainment to tech and advertising. Many high-performers in Culver City and Playa Vista keep hitting deadlines and showing up to back-to-back meetings while privately running on fumes.
SOMETIMES THE HARDEST PART IS REALIZING YOU CAN'T OUTWORK THE EXHAUSTION.
Burnout isn't a productivity problem you can push through. It's a sign your nervous system, boundaries, and sense of meaning need real attention.
Forms of burnout we help with.
Burnout shows up differently depending on your role, industry, and how long you've been running on empty. We work with the specific ways it's showing up in your life.
Cynicism and detachment
Feeling numb, sarcastic, or disconnected from work that used to feel meaningful.
High-achiever burnout
Running on perfectionism and overdrive until your body and mind finally hit a wall.
Compassion fatigue
Depletion from caregiving, client-facing, or people-heavy roles that demand constant emotional output.
Boundaries and overwork
Struggling to say no, disconnect after hours, or protect time for yourself outside of work.
Identity and meaning after burnout
Reevaluating who you are and what you want when work has defined you for so long.

Amanda Burback
Channing GreenbergQuestions about burnout therapy.
What is burnout, exactly?
Burnout is a state of chronic physical and emotional exhaustion caused by prolonged stress, often marked by cynicism, detachment, and a drop in motivation or performance. It's a recognized occupational phenomenon, not just being tired.
Is burnout therapy different from general stress management?
Burnout therapy goes deeper than short-term stress relief. We look at the underlying patterns, boundaries, and beliefs that led to burnout in the first place, not just quick coping tools.
Do you work with people in tech, media, and entertainment?
Yes. Many of our clients work in the fast-paced industries clustered across West LA, including tech, media, entertainment and finance. We understand the always-on culture common in these fields.
Can burnout therapy help even if I still like my job?
Yes. You can love your work and still be burned out. Therapy can help you build a more sustainable relationship with a job you actually want to keep.
How long does burnout recovery take?
It varies based on how long you've been running on empty and what's driving it. Some people notice shifts within a few months, while deeper burnout may take longer to fully recover from.
Do you offer in-person and online burnout therapy?
Yes. We offer in-person sessions in West LA and virtual therapy for clients throughout California.
