Description

This presentation aims to address the causes and consequences of burnout, provide resources for processing burnout, and put forward ways to prevent burnout. Merriam-Webster defines burnout as “exhaustion of physical or emotional strength or motivation, usually due to prolonged stress or frustration.” Tales of burnout, across a wide range of professions, have become rampant. Why do we hear more about this now than in the past? One report stated that over half of professionals report moderate or high burnout. This leads to issues like emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, lower self-evaluation, etc. There are serious consequences if behavioral health providers do not find ways to prevent and deal with burnout.

There are three major themes behavioral health providers must consider when processing burnout issues (Oser, et al.); however, I have added another one, processing. Professionalism is necessary for working with people, but self-care is imperative for behavioral health providers. Many providers feel at the “end of their rope.” Perhaps as we learn to practice self-care, we can help those on our teams who may have developed maladaptive coping methods.
