The Link Between Therapist Burnout And Insomnia

When you can’t sleep, it’s rarely just about sleep. What if the real reason you lie awake at night is tied to internalized pressure to do more, be more, and rest less? In this episode of The Self Careapist Therapist, I break down the surprising connection between burnout and insomnia, especially for high-performing therapists and clients. I walk through the subtle messages many of us received growing up that quietly formed our beliefs about whether rest is acceptable or deserved. We move beyond surface-level strategies and get into deeper solutions: working through internalized achievement narratives, adjusting the timing of conflict and emotional processing, and redefining productivity to include rest. The work doesn’t get better when you’re burned out. It gets better when you’re rested. Watch the full episode of The Link Between Therapist Burnout And Insomnia.
