Therapy for Burnout, Stress, and Nervous System Overload
Hartwell Counselling Therapy Group offers trauma-informed support for high-achieving adults who are exhausted, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that feel impossible to shift. Whether you are navigating burnout, chronic stress, unresolved traumatic experiences, or emotional overwhelm, therapy can help you decrease symptoms, regulate your nervous system, and build resilience.
Hartwell Counselling Therapy Group provides online therapy to clients across Alberta, Ontario, British Columbia, and Nova Scotia, with a focus on personalized care for people who are accomplished on the outside but exhausted inside.
What Therapy Helps With
Therapy may support adults experiencing:
• Burnout and emotional exhaustion
• Chronic stress and nervous-system dysregulation
• PTSD, complex trauma, or past unresolved events
• Anxiety and hypervigilance
• Difficulty resting or calming the mind
• Overwhelm, shutdown, or emotional fragmentation
• Perfectionism and internal pressure that keeps you “on”
Who This Is For
This therapy is especially suited to adults who:
• Feel chronically overwhelmed even when “successful”
• Know they need more than surface-level coping skills
• Have tried therapy before without lasting change
• Want nervous system regulation—not just talk
• Are professionals, leaders, parents, or caregivers balancing heavy responsibilities
How We Can Help
At Hartwell Counselling Therapy Group, we offer personalized therapy that addresses your unique experiences and needs. The evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Somatic therapy, are designed to help you process traumatic memories and develop healthy coping strategies. We help you create a safe and confidential environment where you can explore your feelings and heal at your own pace. We also offer a structured, time-limited program called The 6-Week Trauma Reset. It’s designed for individuals seeking focused, compassionate support within a clear therapeutic container. While still personalized, the work is more intentional and concentrated, integrating nervous system regulation and trauma-processing approaches over a defined six-week period.
How Therapy Works
Therapy helps your body and mind create safety and regulation. At Hartwell Counselling Therapy Group, evidence-based approaches like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), somatic therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) are used to help you process difficult experiences, release stored stress in the body, and build coping skills that feel real and sustainable.
Some people move toward healing through talk-based processing, others through nervous-system-focused work, and many through a combination of both. Sessions are tailored to your unique needs and experiences
Take the First Step Toward Healing
Choosing therapy is a meaningful decision. At Hartwell Counselling Therapy Group, trauma-informed therapy is offered to support adults who are ready to understand the impact of past experiences, reduce ongoing stress, and build greater emotional stability and resilience.
Care is thoughtful, individualized, and grounded in evidence-based approaches. Therapy is not about rushing change or fixing what is “wrong,” but about creating safety, clarity, and sustainable growth over time.
