As a Psychotherapist in practice for over 40 years, Dr. Gerald Fishkin works with therapists, police officers, firefighters, and many others who struggle with occupational burnout. 

Therapist burnout happens when one's psychological resources are overpowered or exhausted by the demands placed on them, and especially by the unrealistic demands, we place on ourselves.

Some Therapist Burnout Symptoms include:
 - Dragging yourself into work most days
 - Not observing professional boundaries
 - Lack of interest or desire to learn about new techniques and research
 - Engaging in unethical behaviors
 - Lack of meaning and purpose

If you feel you may be struggling with therapist or occupational burnout, get help today. You deserve it.
