Chronic Fatigue & Burnout
High levels of stress in your life can lead to significant over-stimulation of your nervous system and a persistent sense of exhaustion. It doesn’t have to be this way forever.
I meet you where you’re at… establishing your baseline and helping you build your capacity again. Chronic fatigue can present with heightened physical, cognitive or emotional elements. We work together to identify and actively address these factors, taking a practical and focused approach to your recovery.
Working with together, alongside your medical specialists, psychologist, physiotherapist or exercise physiologist, provides a holistic approach to your active recovery program and the thus, the greatest benefit to you.
Persistent Pain

Our support centers around reducing your emotional distress and health anxiety during the recovery process, helping you focus your energy on best practice treatments, making positive changes in your routines and improving symptom management.
