Burnout Coaching for Nervous System Support

Feel like you're running on empty—mentally, physically, and emotionally?


Burnout isn’t just about being tired. It’s a signal from your nervous system that something deeper needs your attention.

I help high-achieving, heart-led humans recover from burnout by learning how to regulate their nervous system, reclaim their energy, and reconnect with the life they actually want to live.

You might be experiencing burnout if…

  • You wake up tired no matter how much you sleep

  • You dread even the smallest tasks

  • You’ve lost interest in things you used to enjoy

  • You’re emotionally numb or easily overwhelmed

  • You fantasize about quitting everything and disappearing

  • Your body feels wired but exhausted at the same time

  • You’ve tried “self-care” but it doesn’t touch the depth of your fatigue

  • You’re asking: How long does burnout last? Will I ever feel like myself again?

If any of this resonates—you’re not lazy, broken, or failing.
You’re burned out, and your nervous system is trying to protect you by shutting down.

What is Burnout Coaching?

Coaching for achieving women who feel like they’re falling apart on the inside but still show up and get it done — until they can’t.

Burnout coaching goes beyond productivity hacks and bubble baths. Together, we’ll explore what your body is trying to tell you, how to stop overriding your limits, and what it looks like to live in alignment—not just cope.

Using a mix of nervous system education, somatic practices, and grounded coaching tools, I help you:

  • Understand how your nervous system impacts burnout

  • Identify what’s draining you and why

  • Build nervous system resilience so you don’t crash and recover on repeat

  • Shift from survival mode into sustainable ease

Many approaches to burnout focus on fixing your schedule or shifting your mindset. But burnout is a nervous system issue, not just a time management problem.

You don’t need more willpower.
You need a regulated, resourced system that knows it’s safe to rest, feel, and reconnect.

As a burnout coach and trauma-informed therapist, I help you rebuild from the inside out—not just to feel better, but to feel like you again

This work is for you if…

  • You’re stuck in survival mode and don’t know how to slow down

  • You’ve tried talk therapy but still feel disconnected from your body or purpose

  • You feel pressure to “get over it” or be productive again, but you can’t fake it anymore

  • You’re scared to rest because you don’t know who you are without being busy

  • You’ve been wondering if burnout can cause depression (yes—it can, and you’re not alone)

  • You feel like a shell of yourself and need more than quick fixes

What we’ll do together:

  • We’ll work at the level where burnout actually lives: your nervous system.

    My approach blends nervous system education, somatic tools, trauma-aware coaching, and practical realignment with your values and energy. This isn’t a pep talk. It’s a full-body exhale.

    Together, we will:

    Map your nervous system patterns to understand why you’re stuck
    Deconstruct the burnout identity (it’s not who you are—it’s what you’ve adapted to)
    Release survival habits like people-pleasing, perfectionism, and overfunctioning
    Rebuild energy from a place of safety, not pressure
    Reconnect with purpose beyond productivity and performance

Why work with me:

Headshot of Christina Ennabe somatic OCD therapist

Hi, I’m Christina

I’m passionate about helping people who’ve tried all the things—and are still stuck. If you’ve done the worksheets, challenged the thoughts, and practiced exposures but still feel dysregulated, depleted, or disconnected from yourself, you’re not alone. I’ve been there too.

As a licensed therapist with a background in health coaching and personal training—and as someone with lived experience of both OCD/Anxiety and trauma—I understand the deep connection between the nervous system, mental health, and burnout. I know firsthand how anxiety, OCD, and trauma symptoms can overlap and show up in the body, and why traditional approaches like ERP or ICBT, while helpful, often miss a critical piece: the body’s capacity to feel safe.

That’s why I’m shifting how I work. I’m no longer just targeting symptoms. I’m helping you listen to your system, your needs, and your natural way of healing. I take a holistic approach that blends mind-body practices, nervous system work, and real-life strategies to help you recover from chronic anxiety, perfectionism, and burnout—not just cope with them.

I don’t believe in toxic positivity, hustle culture, or cookie-cutter advice. I offer grounded, compassionate support rooted in both science and lived experience. My goal is to help you stop white-knuckling through life and start feeling like yourself again.

You don’t have to earn rest. You don’t have to hit rock bottom. You can start recovering now—in a way that actually works for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Burnout can last weeks, months, or even years if left unaddressed—especially if your nervous system is stuck in survival mode. Coaching helps you recover faster by working with your body, not against it. We'll rebuild your capacity from the inside out.

  • Yes, long-term burnout can lead to symptoms of depression, like hopelessness, lack of motivation, and emotional numbness. The difference is that burnout is often rooted in chronic stress and nervous system dysregulation—things we can address directly in coaching.

  • Nervous system burnout happens when your body has been in “fight or flight” for too long and starts to shut down to protect you. You may feel exhausted, spaced out, or disconnected. Nervous system-focused coaching helps you regulate again—gently and sustainably.

  • Therapy is designed to treat mental health diagnoses like depression, anxiety, or OCD—where burnout can sometimes show up as a symptom. If you're dealing with a clinical condition, therapy is often the right starting point.

    But burnout doesn't always stem from a mental health disorder. You can be burned out simply from chronic stress, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or working in high-pressure environments for too long. In those cases, coaching can be incredibly effective.

    Burnout coaching focuses on helping you regulate your nervous system, rebuild energy, and realign your life—without needing a diagnosis. It’s action-oriented, nervous-system-aware, and ideal if you feel stuck but don’t necessarily need clinical treatment.

  • We’ll meet regularly (via video) to explore your stress patterns, learn nervous system tools, set boundaries, and gently rebuild energy. You’ll get practical support plus deep, body-based insight. It’s not about fixing yourself—it’s about finally coming home to yourself.

  • Yes. Many of my clients are therapists, healthcare workers, or caregivers who’ve been running on compassion for everyone but themselves. Burnout in helping professionals is real—and healing is possible when you learn to care for your own nervous system.
