Feeling burnt out by the many responsibilities you have as a graduate student?

You are not alone…

Graduate school brings a unique set of challenges as you attempt to balance moving forward in your adult life with personal goals as well as the increasing professional pressure. Many individuals can find balancing academic rigor, demanding research and growing professional responsibilities, like teaching or practicums overwhelming; leaving little time for yourself and personal life. As expectations from mentors increase, students can start to fell insecure about their abilities or struggle with “impostor syndrome” like they do not belong. Because of these new demands, many people can develop various difficulties such as: low mood, lack of motivation, strain on interpersonal relationships or increased anxiety.

Seeking the support of a counselor, provides you the opportunity and space to recharge and manage these emotions and symptoms that might arise.
