“…I have ADHD and had no idea that understanding the way my mind works would transform my life…

…it seemed impossible to me trying to live a normal life. I used to think why doesn’t just doing yoga work for me? After 1:1 sessions with Dave, I finally understood my unique stress cycles, how to spot them and down-regulate my emotions in real time. It took dedication, but I finally feel back on my feet.”

How it works

Discover. Rewire. Rebuild.

Each step follows a proven methodology that focuses on taking regular action to overcoming burnout.

Discover Your Burnout Cycles

Burnout isn’t your enemy, it’s a signal that your demands have grown bigger than your internal resources. Once you uncover the unconscious patterns that are quietly driving your stress cycles, everything starts to make sense.

“Oh… right. That’s why I keep burning out even when I’m ‘doing all the right things.’”

Rewire Your Stress System

Burnout doesn’t heal by trying harder, it heals by feeling safer. Shifting out of chronic threat mode using depth psychology, nervous-system regulation, and simple somatic tools, stops your body firing your internal danger alarm.

“Wait… so I wasn’t ‘broken’, I was just running on emergency mode this whole time?”

Rebuilding a New Life

This step is about integrating boundaries, energy management, and identity-level shifts so you don’t fall back into the old cycle, even when life gets busy again. You’ll learn to operate from a larger capacity instead of survival.

“So this is what it feels like to function without constantly stressing out?”

Don’t Waste Time Making These Mistakes:

No more courses. No more self-help. Just expert 1:1 guidance, optimised for burnout recovery.

Treat symptoms instead of causes by trying every self-help hack hoping one finally sticks. Meditation, breathwork, cold plunges, yoga, supplements – all great ideas, but ignore chronic dysregulation patterns like perfectionism.

Relying on your doctor or medication to “fix it”, which may help stabilise you, but can’t rewire your stress response, prevent relapses or rebuild a regulated nervous system and sustainable way of living.

Attempt recovering alone using the wrong support like talk therapy, self-help or short-term hacks, without changing the stress patterns that keep you stuck. Relational interventions outperform self-help by ~30–50%.

Forcing yourself to “push through” by working harder to people-please, while ignoring your own needs. This works for a while, but the emotional pressure builds as these are the same stress patterns that keep you stuck.

Fail to make recovery stick by falling back into old patterns, overworking and not spotting early warning signs – can leave you drained and feeling hopeless. High-performers have regular 1:1 support to maintain their level of performance.

    ❌ You’re not in a place to commit time, attention, or energy to your own recovery right now.

    ❌ You want to handle burnout entirely on your own, with self-help techniques.

    ✅ You’ve tried therapy, self-help, or powering through but still feel stuck.

    ✅ You regularly feel overwhelmed, unbalanced, or like your brain isn’t functioning optimally.

    ✅ You’re a perfectionist, over-thinker, or high achiever struggling to problem-solve your way out of burnout.

    💎 #Pro Tip

    Alternatives

    You’re other options.

    If you’re thinking of starting 1:1 sessions but still evaluating other options, here are some of the closest alternatives:

    Talk Therapy

    Some therapists are excellent. But many just do not have the psychoeducation for chronic stress and burnout, and my clients often can’t find anyone they can relate to with on this level.

    Self-Help Books

    There are so many self-help books to read that it can take years to cover the basics. And unfortunately, these often offer generic advice that’s sometimes great, but impossible to implement without expert 1:1 guidance.

    Online Courses

    Courses have been popular in the past decade. Sadly, they simply can’t go into depth and have little focus on your personal experience. You get a nice certificate, but you’re stuck with general tactics for a complex issue.

    Psychology Degree 

    Most degrees are 3+ years long and aren’t designed for healing but learning. That’s where many burnout sufferers fail; they try to educate their way out of chronic stress… by adding more stress.

    ⏰ Logistics

    How long is the program?

    Most clients complete the core of the programme in 12 weeks.

    Here’s how it’s designed to work:

    🧠 Stage 1: Put out the fire
    We stabilise your nervous system, reduce symptom intensity, and stop the constant feeling of overwhelm. This is about finding relief – quickly and safely.

    🏗 Stage 2: Rebuild capacity
    Once the crisis settles, we increase your ability to handle stress without collapsing. You’ll learn how to regulate in real time, not just cope after the fact.

    🔍 Stage 3: Find the source
    We identify the deeper patterns – work dynamics, identity pressure, past experiences – that caused burnout in the first place, so it doesn’t keep repeating.

    Our pay-as-you-go monthly style structure gives you complete flexibility on how long you want to engage in 1:1 sessions.

    Are sessions online or in-person?

    We hold our sessions online via Google Meets, the links are forwarded weekly prior to each session, and they’ll look like this in your inbox every week:

    How do I know I have burnout?

    Burnout isn’t just “feeling stressed.” It’s a recognised occupational syndrome (WHO) involving exhaustion, detachment, and reduced effectiveness.

    Clinical frameworks (ICD-11, DSM-5) help define it, but your lived experience matters just as much. If you feel depleted, stuck, and unlike yourself, that’s data too.

    👉 If you’re not sure take our free Burnout Score Test to get a clear, evidence-based snapshot of where you are.

    Is this confidential?

    Yes, completely.

    I’m a BACP-accredited psychotherapist and work strictly within the BACP Ethical Framework, which means confidentiality, data protection, and professional boundaries are non-negotiable.

    You are under no obligation to inform your employer, HR, or anyone else that you’re doing this program.

    In short:
    Your work stays between us.

    🧠 How this works

    Is this therapy or coaching?

    Short answer: It’s a burnout recovery method that uses the parts of each that actually work, and drops the rest.

    …vs. traditional therapy

    • Focus: Therapy often explores why you feel this way. We focus on why it’s still happening, and how to stop the cycle.
    • Pace: Weekly sessions work for insight. Burnout recovery needs frequency to interrupt stress physiology.
    • Structure: Many therapies are open-ended. This work follows a clear recovery arc: stabilise → rebuild → integrate.
    • Outcome: Insight alone doesn’t regulate a nervous system. Burnout resolves through consistent, embodied change.

    …vs. coaching

    • Depth: Coaching focuses on goals and behaviour. Burnout lives in the nervous system, not a to-do list.
    • Safety: Coaching isn’t designed for trauma, panic, dissociation, or collapse states. This is expert-driven stress containment.
    • Risk: Pushing goals without regulation often reinforces burnout patterns.

    …the burnout solution

    • Psychotherapy-led: This programme is led by a BACP-accredited psychotherapist specialising in burnout, not just a generic performance coach.
    • Recovery-focused: Not generic talk therapy, everything we do serves nervous system stability, reducing your chronic stress patterns and building personal capacity.
    • High-frequency: Twice-weekly sessions to interrupt chronic stress loops, over once a week talking therapy.
    • Integrated: Mind, body, behaviour, work patterns – we treat everything related to burnout as a focus.
    • Designed for burnout: High-functioning people who can’t “think” their way out of their suffering. We accept that you function differently and start where you’re at.
    Why twice-weekly sessions?

    🎓 The research is clear: higher-intensity sessions (twice weekly) leads to faster improvement, sustainable symptom reduction, and more durable change than once-weekly sessions, especially for chronic stress and burnout.

    👥 Twice-weekly sessions allows us to:

    • Reduce symptoms faster, by integrating consistent nervous system regulation symptoms may improve up to 50% faster.
    • Leverage stress reduction with co-regulation through the therapeutic relationship, which accounts for ~30% of treatment outcome improvement (a fancy way saying our space together teaches your nervous system to feel safe).
    • Create longer-lasting recovery with higher session frequency being linked to lower relapse rates and better long-term functioning because change is integrated early, before old patterns reassert themselves.

    This isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing the right amount, at the right intensity, so your burnout cycle actually changes.

    Do I have to do exercises, homework or a course?

    No. This isn’t a course, and it’s not about adding more to your plate.

    🔥 Burnout happens because you’ve been doing too much, for too long. Recovery works in the opposite direction. Our focus is on removing effort, not adding tasks.

    📝 There’s no homework, no worksheets, and no modules to “keep up with.” We work together to integrate regulation into what you’re already doing, so recovery happens inside real life, not on top of it.

    🧘 You’ll learn a small number of practical regulation tools early on, but they’re designed to be used in the moment, not practiced endlessly. The goal is simple: do less, regulate more, and let capacity return naturally.

    This isn’t about trying harder.
    It’s about changing how your system operates, so effort stops being the problem.

    What if work is the problem, not me?

    🏢 Work stress is real. Deadlines, pressure, poor leadership and crunch cycles absolutely contribute to burnout.

    But here’s the uncomfortable truth most people discover the hard way:
    if it’s not this job, it’s usually the next one.

    Burnout isn’t caused by a single workplace, it’s driven by repeatable stress patterns: how you respond to pressure, responsibility, urgency, expectations, recovery and even the types of jobs you select.

    This program puts a focus on your professional life by:

    • Identifying which parts of your work life are genuinely unsustainable
    • Differentiating external work demands from internal stress cycles
    • Clarifying how your nervous system responds in the workplace 

    We can’t rewrite your company’s wellbeing policies but what we can change is how your nervous system responds to work.

    How quickly should I expect to feel a difference?

    Most clients notice meaningful shifts within the first few weeks, usually more calm, clarity, and fewer spikes of overwhelm.

    🗓️ Around the 90-day mark, many start to feel consistently more regulated and able to handle pressure without tipping into burnout.

    Some people work with me for the recommended 12 weeks to stabilise and reset.
    Others choose to continue for many years as their work and life evolve.

    👉 The monthly, pay-as-you-go structure gives you full control, we move at the pace your nervous system actually needs.

    What will I be capable of after the program? 

    You’ll come out of this with more than relief, you’ll have lasting change you can feel and use every day:

    • Regulate in real time ⏱️
      You’ll calm stress as it happens — not just “manage later.” You’ll interrupt panic, tension and overwhelm before they take hold.
    • Down-regulate your nervous system 🧠
      Your body and mind stop living in survival mode. You respond with clarity, not adrenaline and exhaustion.
    • Understand your stress patterns 🧩
      You’ll see exactly what drives your burnout — how your history, expectations, roles and responses combine to create stress loops.
    • Shift from reaction to choice 🎯
      Instead of automatically pushing through, you’ll choose responses that protect your energy and capacity.
    • Reconnect with confidence and clarity
      You’ll think more clearly, make decisions with ease, and feel steady rather than depleted.
    • Integrate lasting changes into life 🧱
      This isn’t temporary relief. You’ll embed new, life-supporting patterns that stick even under pressure.

    In short:
    You won’t just feel better, you’ll operate better in work, relationships and life without burning out again.

    💳 Pricing

    Why is this priced higher than weekly therapy?

    Because this isn’t generic weekly talk therapy – it’s intensive, outcome-focused burnout recovery.

    With twice-weekly 1:1 sessions, real-time messaging support, and a structured approach designed to change stress patterns fast.

    👉 Burnout requires frequency, continuity and containment, not a once-a-week check-in. This model exists to shorten recovery time and produce lasting change, not prolong treatment.

    How much is the program?

    £1200 per month on a flexible pay-as-go model.

    Can my employer pay or expense this?

    Yes, many clients ask their workplace for full or part contribution as part of their:

    • Leadership Development Budget (most common)
    • Professional Development / Training Budget
    • Employee Wellbeing / Mental Health Budget
    • Talent Retention / Succession Planning Budget
    • Executive Coaching / L&D Budget
