Burnout Therapy in Brea, California
Burnout can show up in many ways, and burnout therapy can help you better understand what you’re experiencing.
Do you feel persistently drained, even after resting? Are you going through the motions at work while feeling emotionally disconnected or overwhelmed?
Do you notice physical symptoms as well, like fatigue that doesn’t go away, irritability, headaches, or feeling “on edge” even when you’re not at work?
Does everything feel like too much, even when you’re still managing to keep up?
Burnout often develops when ongoing stress and responsibilities accumulate over time.
Burnout can affect your energy, motivation, focus, and emotional resilience. Therapy can help you understand what’s happening and begin to shift out of survival mode.

Aurea Life Therapy is primarily a private-pay, out-of-network practice. I also have limited availability for clients with Anthem Blue Cross. Working primarily outside of insurance allows me to provide individualized care without having treatment decisions guided by insurance requirements.
If your plan includes out-of-network benefits, you may be able to receive reimbursement for a portion of your session fee. I can provide a monthly superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.
Before starting therapy, contact your insurance plan and ask about:
Out-of-network mental health benefits
Your deductible and reimbursement amount
The process for submitting a superbill
You can also use Thrizer to check whether your plan provides out-of-network benefits.
Please keep in mind that out-of-network reimbursement is determined by your insurance plan and is not guaranteed. Using out-of-network benefits also generally requires a mental health diagnosis to be shared with your insurance company.
