Next Steps

When It's Time for More Support

Anxiety and burnout rarely announce themselves. For many high-performing women, they show up as trouble sleeping, a shorter fuse, or the feeling that you're running on empty even after time off. The resources above can help you understand what's happening and know your rights at work. If these patterns have lasted more than a few weeks, or they're starting to affect your work, health, or relationships, it may be time to talk with a therapist. I offer online therapy from Atlanta, GA for women across Georgia and Florida.
