Burnout Therapy for Nurses & Healthcare Professionals

Allied Health: You Have Support

You’ve kept going through things most people wouldn’t understand. Long hours. Broken systems. Constant crisis. You’re a nurse, a chaplain, a PSW; a professional helper trained to hold it all together. But lately, something’s cracking. You’ve noticed that you’re exhausted and sleep isn’t enough to feel energized again. You feel flat, cynical, or numb. You’ve lost touch with who you are outside the role. This is the cost of care in a system that demands so much of you. I offer online therapy for nurses etc. overwhelmed by shift life in Kitchener, Toronto and across the GTA.

You’re Great at Holding It Together For Your Patients, But Lately Exhaustion is Holding You Hostage

You’ve been the steady one in the storm. The one who is paid to show up when others fall apart, and at first you loved helping people, and it was so fulfilling to help others. But now, you’re running on fumes. Maybe it’s burnout. Maybe it’s something deeper, like moral injury, compassion fatigue, or a creeping sense that you’re losing yourself. And it’s normal and predictable for shift work in healthcare, especially when you’re working short staffed and when people aren’t getting time to fully recover. I work with healthcare professionals in Kitchener, Toronto and the GTA who are ready to start reclaiming clarity, boundaries, and inner sense of self.

This Work Changes You and Can Be Risky For Your Identity

You’ve seen things most people never will. Held hands through grief. Pushed through impossible shifts with difficult co-workers, de-escalated difficult families who don’t see how much you care. You didn’t choose this work to run yourself into the ground and end up in burn out or break down, but here you are, wondering where your energy, purpose, or faith in the system went.

Burnout therapy for healthcare professionals is often about moral injury, identity erosion, and the slow disappearance of your own needs. Whether you’re a nurse in Toronto, a PSW in Kitchener, or a hospital chaplain in the GTA, you deserve support from someone who understands the emotional and ethical cost of care. As a certified spiritual care practitioner and registered psychotherapist, I offer deep, soul-centred burnout therapy and recovery treatment for healthcare professionals who need renewal.

About Erika Mills, RP, Educator & Coach

Professionals and caregivers experiencing compassion fatigue and burnout, including therapists, nurses, social workers, chaplains, first responders, clergy, personal support workers, and more.

Burnout often shows up as emotional exhaustion, irritability, sleep problems, and a sense that no amount of rest will help. For nurses and PSWs, it can also look like compassion fatigue: when caring for others starts to feel impossible.

Yes, if you have extended health benefits that include coverage for a Registered Psychotherapist. Many healthcare professionals in Ontario, such as nurses, PSWs, hospital staff, have partial or full coverage. It’s worth checking your plan or asking HR.

Stress is your body’s short-term response to pressure. Burnout is when stress becomes chronic and leaves you depleted. In healthcare, burnout can also overlap with moral injury, the pain of working in conditions that conflict with your values.

Yes. Online therapy provides a confidential space to name what’s happening, process the emotional toll, and rebuild strategies for recovery. It works well for healthcare professionals with unpredictable schedules, since sessions can be flexible.

No. I support a wide range of healthcare professionals: nurses, PSWs, therapists, caregivers, and allied health staff. If your work in healthcare has left you drained or questioning your capacity, therapy can help.

Every recovery looks different. Some people notice relief after the first few sessions because they finally feel understood. For others, it takes longer to rebuild energy and confidence. What’s important is that burnout recovery is possible, with the right support.

We’ll talk about what brought you here, explore your current struggles, and set goals that fit your situation. You’ll leave with a sense of direction and clarity on how we’ll work together.

I integrate spiritual care when it matters to you. If you feel your faith has been strained by your work, or you want to include your spirituality in recovery, we can make that part of the process.
