We hear the term “burnout” constantly in the legal profession — but burnout and clinical stress-related conditions are not the same thing. How do you know when you’re dealing with normal occupational exhaustion versus something more serious, like depression, anxiety, or trauma-related stress?
Join psychologist Dr. Tracey Meyers for a practical and engaging one-hour discussion exploring the differences between burnout and true stress-related conditions, how these issues commonly show up in lawyers, and what actually helps. Using real-world examples and clear clinical distinctions, this program will help attendees better understand stress, recognize warning signs, and know when additional support may be beneficial.
This is a supportive conversation focused on insight, resilience, and early intervention.
. . .
Q & A will follow the program, giving you the opportunity to ask any questions you might have.
