You became a therapist because you love helping others - at least, you used to. You started a private practice, or you want to do so, to help people on your own terms, but you are struggling, vacillating between feeling angry, sad, disillusioned, or numb. You can reignite your love and energy for the work, but it won't happen through bubble baths and vacations. This book digs into the systemic issues that put therapists at risk for burnout. It discusses how therapists replicate broken systems in their private practices, inadvertently perpetuating burnout. Most importantly, it helps therapists recover from burnout and create a joyful, sustainable practice that truly helps their communities.
