Therapy Services in Monmouth County, NJ
If you’ve been running on empty, struggling to keep up with the demands of work, relationships, and daily life, you may be experiencing burnout. Whether you're a working professional, caretaker, therapist, or simply someone who's been holding it all together for too long, burnout can affect your mental, physical, and emotional well-being. At Explore Within, we offer therapy for adults in Monmouth County and across New Jersey who are ready to reclaim peace, set boundaries, and build a healthier relationship with themselves.
Burnout is a chronic state of physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion that often results from prolonged stress. Unlike regular stress, burnout doesn’t just fade with a good night’s sleep — it can leave you feeling detached, depleted, and even hopeless.
Common symptoms include:
Feeling emotionally drained or numb
Decreased motivation and productivity
Trouble concentrating or making decisions
Chronic fatigue, headaches, or muscle tension
Increased irritability or anxiety
Disconnection from things that once brought joy
You may feel like you're “functioning” but not truly living. Therapy can help.
