Work shouldn’t feel relentless.
If you’re constantly under pressure, struggling to switch off, or feeling close to burnout, you’re not alone.
At Dawn Kett Psychotherapy, I offer confidential support for work-related stress, workplace anxiety and burnout.
Whether you’re dealing with high workloads, long hours, leadership pressure, or difficulty maintaining a healthy work-life balance, I can help you better understand what’s driving your stress and how it’s affecting your wellbeing.
Together, we’ll explore practical ways to manage stress, reduce anxiety and build resilience so you can feel calmer, more focused and more in control at work.
My approach supports professionals who feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck in cycles of overthinking, helping you regain balance, improve confidence and create a more sustainable and fulfilling working life.
Work-related stress can affect every part of your life—not just your job.
You might find it hard to switch off in the evenings, feel constantly overwhelmed by your workload, or notice changes in your mood, sleep, or confidence.
Over time, ongoing workplace pressure can lead to burnout, anxiety and a sense of losing control. You may feel stuck in a cycle of overthinking, people-pleasing, or pushing yourself to keep going despite exhaustion.
This is where the right support can make a meaningful difference.

What is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)?
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is based on a powerful principle:
👉 The way we think affects the way we feel.
👉 The way we feel affects the way we act.
👉 And when we change one part of that cycle, everything can begin to shift.
Thanks to research in neuroplasticity, we now know that the brain is not fixed. It is constantly rewiring itself based on repeated thoughts, behaviours and emotional experiences.
If you want a more in depth description please read my blog post:
Mindfulness techniques help you slow down, stay present in the moment, and reduce anxiety by stepping out of patterns of future worry and past rumination.
These approaches are about making sense of what’s happening in your life, identifying unhelpful patterns and learning healthier, more compassionate ways to respond to challenges.
In our sessions, we’ll work collaboratively to explore what may be keeping you feeling stuck and develop practical coping strategies you can apply both in therapy and in everyday life.
If you’re experiencing anxiety, feeling overwhelmed, struggling with low mood, or simply want a deeper understanding of yourself, CBT offers a structured, supportive way forward. Taking the first step can feel daunting — but it can also be the start of real, positive change.
I’d love to support you on that journey.
Book an initial assessment session today and let’s work together to help you move forward with greater clarity, confidence and self-compassion.
