Description
Hillary talks with Emily Nykamp, a therapist within Wedgwood's Counseling Team, about her passion for helping clients—especially kids and teens—find creative ways to overcome challenges, build resilience, and grow.
Emily explains burnout as a result of prolonged stress, especially in fields like healthcare, education, and caregiving, where people often feel overworked and undervalued, especially post-pandemic. They discuss recognizing burnout early and managing it through self-reflection, understanding triggers, social connections, and setting work-life boundaries.
They also talk about how organizations can support employee well-being by providing mental health resources and a culture that promotes recharging.
