What We Do

At The Burnout Coach, we help individuals, leaders, and teams move from burnout and overwhelm to sustainable wellbeing. Through coaching and workplace wellbeing training, we support people to reduce stress, set healthy boundaries, and rebuild a balanced, meaningful approach to succes

Coaching & Mentoring

For individuals ready to break free from burnout cycles.

Our 1:1 coaching programs are designed for those feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or constantly “not enough.” We go beyond quick fixes to uncover the root causes of burnout, the beliefs, stress responses, and internal patterns that keep you striving, proving, and pushing past your limits.

Using a blend of coaching, mindset work, nervous system education, and breathwork, we help you:

Identify and unlearn the stories that fuel burnout
Develop emotional resilience and self-trust
Set and maintain boundaries
Regulate your nervous system (fight, flight, freeze, fawn)
Build a life that feels balanced, empowered, and yours

From students to CEOs, our clients leave with clarity, confidence, and the ability to live and lead with intention.

Corporate Programs

For teams and organisations that value wellbeing over hustle.

Chronic stress is not a performance strategy — yet many workplaces still reward burnout as a badge of honour. Our bespoke workplace wellbeing programmes are designed to disrupt that culture and embed healthier, sustainable ways of working at the heart of leadership and team dynamics.

We partner with organisations to deliver:

Burnout prevention and resilience-building workshops
Leadership coaching and team mentoring
Stress management and emotional regulation training
Difficult conversations, conflict resolution & communication skills
Boundary-setting and wellbeing frameworks
Breathwork, grounding tools & reflective practice for performance
Culture-shifting programmes to strengthen communication, trust & collaboration

Delivered online or in person, our sessions help teams reduce stress, build resilience, improve communication, and strengthen workplace culture.

Community Work

For local groups, non-profits, and educational settings.

We believe that wellbeing should be accessible, inclusive, and community-driven. Through our work with schools, charities, and community organisations, we deliver programs that support people of all ages and backgrounds in understanding stress, building resilience, and learning to care for their mental and emotional health.

Our community work includes:

Youth resilience programs
Workshops for carers and educators
Mental health awareness talks
Group coaching circles & reflective spaces
Support for burnout in the helping professions

We’ve worked with community groups across Ireland and abroad, helping people feel heard, held, and supported as they navigate the challenges of everyday life.
