On today’s episode of the TeleWellness Hub podcast, we hear from Ann Robinson, LCSW about addressing, and even preventing, burnout. Knowledge and awareness of this topic can be such a huge asset in our journeys towards wellness.
Ann is a trauma therapist who specializes in helping clients with feelings of overwhelm, loneliness, and burnout.
Many of Ann’s clients are therapists themselves, and Ann shares that she was drawn to this specific kind of therapy, as well as supervision and consultation work, because she sees the importance of rest and self-care for those who work in the helping professions.
We talk about how and why people with marginalized identities can also find themselves carrying more loneliness or overwhelm, and what people might look for to find a good connection with a therapist in that instance.
Ann shares her beautiful perspective on practicing curiosity in the midst of life-change, and explore what it might feel like to resist just “bouncing back” after the pandemic uncovered different possibilities and challenges in our lives.
We have choices even within seasons of unforeseen grief, change and transition, and Ann encourages us to care for ourselves well as we re-evaluate our commitments and community.
Wellness can be defined as “the quality or state of being in good health, especially as an actively sought goal” (source: SSM Health), so I love that Ann brought up the intentional examination of our wellness, and reminded us we’re worth it.
Wellness is more of a journey than a destination, so every step we take towards health is a victory in itself. By listening to this podcast today, you’re expanding your understanding of what resources and support are available to you, and investing in your own wellness.
