Why Most Therapists Burn Out
Burnout is one of the biggest hidden struggles therapists and healers face—yet no one really talks about it until it’s too late. If you've ever felt exhausted, emotionally drained, or even questioned whether you can keep doing this work, you're not alone. But burnout isn’t just a byproduct of working in the mental health field—it’s a sign that something deeper needs to change.
In this episode, we break down the real reasons why most therapists burn out, including:
✅ The hidden trauma response that keeps therapists stuck in exhaustion
✅ Why the rescuer role leads to emotional depletion and prevents client healing
✅ How to shift from over-identifying with clients to becoming a powerful Healing Artist
✅ The key boundaries every therapist MUST set to sustain a thriving practice
✅ Simple yet effective strategies to protect your energy while doing deep, meaningful work
Burnout is NOT a requirement for being a great therapist. There is a better way. Tune in now to learn how to prevent it and reclaim your passion for healing.

About Me
I’m Janice Holland, a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor, Certified Trauma Model Therapist, and the creator of The Art of Healing Trauma. I help therapists, coaches, and healers break free from burnout, master trauma recovery, and step into their power as Healing Artists. With years of experience in private practice, agency work, and trauma-focused training, I’ve seen firsthand how traditional therapy often keeps both clients and therapists stuck.
My mission? To revolutionize the way we approach trauma healing—so that both you and your clients thrive. Whether through certification, coaching, or transformative workshops, I’m here to help you create a practice (and life) that’s sustainable, fulfilling, and deeply impactful.
Let’s change the way healing happens. 🌿✨
