Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Burnout
for Burnout
CBT for burnout targets the perfectionism, excessive responsibility-taking, and difficulty delegating that drive chronic overwork, as well as the cynicism and cognitive fatigue that result.
How it works
Challenges core beliefs about self-worth being conditional on performance. Builds assertiveness and boundary-setting skills. Addresses cognitive exhaustion through structured problem-solving.
What to watch for
Works best alongside structural changes to the work situation. CBT without changing the environment is insufficient for severe burnout. Available via Mental Health Care Plan.
