Stress and Burnout

Chronic stress and burnout are increasingly common, particularly in fast-paced work and caregiving environments. Recent research suggests that up to 60% of Australians report feeling stressed, and one in three experience symptoms of burnout such as emotional exhaustion, reduced performance, and detachment. Left untreated, stress and burnout can impact both mental and physical health. Seeking psychological support early can help prevent long-term consequences and restore balance and wellbeing.
