If you are thinking or feeling any of the following ways, degree/career burnout and uncertainty therapy might be right for you:
- Feeling like every day is a struggle to get through
- Feeling unfilled professionally or educationally
- Thinking that you’re ungrateful or silly to want to change out of your career path
- Thinking that friends and family will judge you if you decide to make a big change
- Feeling dread about having to do the same thing day after day
- Feeling like it might be time for something different
Some of us may end up on career or degree paths that aren’t what we dreamed of before getting into them. These paths may pay well or be societally well-regarded, but can prove physically and mentally exhausting or potentially even professionally or personally unrewarding. Situations like these can put you in an unshakable slump. You may feel burnt out, unmotivated, or wondering about your purpose in life. These feelings can be exacerbated by familial or societal expectations, which may make you feel guilty for even having these feelings in the first place. As a result, you may feel conflicted about what you should do next.
Together, we will figure out what your personal goals truly are and explore actionable steps you can take to achieve those goals in a healthy and rewarding manner. We will find strategies that work for you that leave you more at ease in the moment while we devise a long-term plan for yourself that will leave you more satisfied with your life and career.
