Chronic Stress & burnout Prevention

Burnout is not simply exhaustion — it reflects sustained nervous system activation, relational overextension, and identity structures organized around responsibility and performance. Dr. Christopher approaches burnout through a depth-oriented and somatic lens, examining both the psychological patterns and stress physiology that contribute to collapse.

Grounded in psychodynamic psychotherapy, attachment science, and mind–body medicine, this work strengthens regulation, restores energy, and supports leaders and professionals in developing sustainable forms of engagement rather than reactive overdrive.
