Mental & Neurological

Recovery is real, and it takes time.

The body genuinely does recover from chronic stress and burnout when given the right conditions. We compose protocols that restore nervous-system capacity without rushing a process that took years to build in the first place.

How it shows up

Depletion, named honestly.

Burnout can overlap with clinical depression — if low mood is prominent, our Depression & Anxiety page and a conversation with a therapist are worth adding alongside this work.

Overwhelm & irritability

A shorter fuse and a lower threshold for things that didn't used to bother you — classic signs of a depleted nervous system.

Short fuse
Overwhelm
Reduced patience
Emotional flatness

Physical depletion

Chronic stress leaves a genuine physiological mark — on sleep, digestion, immunity, and energy alike.

Exhaustion
Frequent illness
Digestive symptoms
Disrupted sleep

iii

Loss of capacity

Tasks that used to feel manageable now feel disproportionately hard — a sign of genuine nervous-system depletion, not weakness.

Reduced resilience
Difficulty concentrating
Avoidance
Feeling "wired-tired"

How we work together

A measured path from intake to integration.

Listen

Sixty minutes on how long this has been building, your current supports (including therapy), sleep, and daily load.

Assess

Functional review of cortisol rhythm, nutrient status, and the daily patterns sustaining the depletion.

III

Compose

A protocol paced to reality — nervous-system support, nutrition, and sequenced lifestyle change.

Modalities

Tools we reach for.

❦

Botanical Medicine

Traditional adaptogenic and nervine formulations to support nervous-system recovery.

◎

Nutritional Guidance

Mineral repletion and blood-sugar stability — both directly tied to stress resilience.

✧

Functional Assessment

Cortisol rhythm and nutrient status review to see exactly where capacity has been lost.

❋

Lifestyle Medicine

Sleep, boundaries, and nervous-system regulation practices — the real foundation of recovery.

Questions, answered.

Is burnout the same as depression?

They can overlap, but they're not the same thing, and burnout can deepen into clinical depression if unaddressed. If low mood is a significant part of your picture, our Depression & Anxiety page — and a conversation with a therapist — may be the better starting point, alongside this work.

Can I keep seeing my therapist while we work together?

Yes, and we'd encourage it if you're already working with one. We address the physiological side of burnout; therapy addresses the psychological and relational side, and the two complement each other well.

How long does recovery from burnout actually take?

Three to twelve months is realistic, depending on how long the depletion has been building. We build the protocol around that honest timeline rather than promising a quick fix.

Do I need to change my job or life circumstances?

That's a personal decision we won't make for you. What we can do is help your nervous system and body recover capacity, which often makes those bigger decisions clearer.
