Symptoms
The typical symptoms are a feeling of being burned out, and a lack of energy and motivation. Often this situation is accompanied by depressive mood and can, if it is untreated, lead to depression.
Causes
The causes may be complex. In addition to genetic predisposition, especially external stressors play a role, such as lack of compensation for everyday working life, extreme demands and stress-inducing situations, and much more responsibility, but also chronic physical diseases or anxiety can cause, a feeling of burnout.
Treatment
Cognitive behavioral training
With the help of cognitive behavioral training, the environmental factors are considered mainly and initiated changes, that lead to a a stress reduction. Furthermore relaxation methods will be used to eliminate the mental and physical over-stimulation and finally thought patterns are analyzed and changed accordingly, to achieve a balanced state of mind in the course of treatment. We follow the principle, that a situation itself does not induce stress, but our thoughts regarding this.
The cognitive behavioral training can be done personally or in online meetings.

Mindfulness- and Awareness Training
In many cases, the program for stress reduction and behavioral modification is sufficient. However, sometimes it is useful to go through this step and also to work on the inner attitude and a more conscious way of life. In this way, a deeper understanding is possible and relapses can be prevented even more effectively. The Mindfulness- and awareness training deepen the knowledge gained with the cognitive behavioral training and renewed the understanding of yourself and your body, so you can go more self-confident through life.
