BURNOUT IN HIGH-ACHIEVING TEENS

Moving teens from burnout to joyful balance.

Your teen is coming home from school more stressed and unhappy than ever, and you’re worried.

You always knew the teen years would be hard, but high school has taken more of a toll than you expected. Your teenager is amazing, and it’s honestly impressive how well they’ve handled everything on their plate. Great grades in demanding classes, athletics or fine arts activities after school (or both!), a thriving social life…it’s no wonder they’re showing signs of burn out already. You’ve tried talking to them, but they insist this is just how it is now, and you couldn’t possibly understand.

You notice your teen:

  • appears drained, physically and emotionally, no matter how much rest they get

  • has a more cynical or detached attitude about school, activities, or life in general

  • is more easily frustrated when things don’t go according to plan

  • is not as interested in things they used to enjoy doing

  • complains of headaches, stomachaches, shoulder pain, or other physical symptoms

how WE can help

Therapy can help your teen reclaim joy and build resilience.

Working with a teen therapist can help your teen better understand what truly matters to them. We don’t do stuffy, boring therapy here, so we make sure your teen feels comfortable opening up and being their true self. 

Through meaningful conversations and tailored, evidence-based techniques, your teen will learn to identify their stressors and challenges, build on their strengths, and build a stronger sense of self-awareness. 

Together, we will work towards a more sustainable sense of self-worth that is based on more than achievement, helping your teen not only manage their stress but truly thrive, with a new sense of enthusiasm and joy for their future. 

We believe your teen deserves to feel joy and we want to help them get there!
