About this listen

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Debbie Sorensen, a clinical psychologist, who specialises in helping midlife adults with burnout. Dr. Sorensen is the author of ACT for Burnout (2023), a guide for breaking the burnout cycle, and co-host of Psychologists Off the Clock. She shares insights on how burnout shows up uniquely in midlife and the common patterns she observes. We explore the role of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in managing and recovering from burnout. Dr. Sorensen offers practical ACT strategies that can be applied to daily life to support long-term well-being. We also reflect on our own personal journeys through burnout, discussing lessons that continue to shape our work and lives today.Connect with Debbie:W: www.drdebbiesorensen.com LI: https://www.linkedin.com/in/debbie-sorensen/ Substack: https://substack.com/@drdebbiesorensen IS: https://www.instagram.com/drdebbiesorensen/Pod: Psychologists Off the Clock, Book: Amazon ACT Daily Journal: Amazon Subscribe: sign up for my email list here.Shannon Swales—a psychologist dedicated to empowering individuals with essential mental health skills to prevent, navigate & grow from midlife burnout.
