Understanding Burnout: Supporting Clients to Reconnect to Self Training Video

Explore burnout not simply as exhaustion, but as a meaningful signal that something in the way a person is living, relating or being may have become unsustainable.

This approximately 2-hour instant-access online training takes a client-centred approach to understanding burnout, looking beyond surface-level symptom management to explore what may be happening underneath the depletion and overwhelm.

Clients experiencing burnout may arrive feeling disconnected not only from their energy, but also from their sense of meaning, direction and self. Rather than seeing burnout as something that simply needs to be “fixed”, this training explores how we can listen to what it may be communicating and support clients to make sense of their experience.

What you’ll explore

• Understanding burnout as more than exhaustion
• The impact of prolonged pressure, misalignment and unmet needs
• Recognising depletion, overwhelm and disconnection
• Exploring what burnout may be communicating
• Moving beyond symptom management
• Helping clients reconnect with their values and limits
• Supporting clients to rediscover a stronger sense of self
• Using a client-centred approach to work with burnout
• Reflecting on our own relationship with burnout and wellbeing

The training also offers an opportunity to reflect on ourselves as practitioners – considering where our own alive, vibrant and authentic self may have become sidelined amid the pressures and demands of life.

This is not about providing quick fixes for burnout. It is about becoming curious about the experience, listening to what it might be telling us, and helping clients move towards a way of living that feels more sustainable, connected and aligned with who they are.
