Trusted and Experienced Workaholism Counseling at Allium Counseling

At Allium Counseling, we recognize that workaholism is more than just working long hours—it’s a cycle driven by perfectionism, anxiety, and deeply held beliefs about self-worth and success.

For many, this pattern can lead to feelings of burnout, strained relationships, and a diminished quality of life. Our compassionate therapists are here to support you in understanding and addressing these challenges, helping you create a healthier relationship with work and reclaim balance in your life.

The Impact of Workaholism

Workaholism often affects multiple areas of life, including:

• Mental Health: Perfectionism and anxiety can fuel a constant need to achieve, leaving little room for rest or self-compassion.
• Relationships: Over-prioritizing work can strain personal relationships and leave loved ones feeling overlooked or disconnected.
• Health Behaviors: Neglecting physical health, sleep, and proper nutrition often accompanies workaholism, compounding feelings of exhaustion and stress.
• Personal Fulfillment: Other areas of life, such as hobbies or meaningful experiences, may take a backseat, leading to a sense of emptiness or dissatisfaction.

Allium Counseling Provides Evidence-Based Counseling for Workaholism

Our experienced therapists utilize evidence-based approaches tailored to clients’ unique experiences and needs. Some of the methods we use include:

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): ACT helps clients clarify their core values and learn to make decisions aligned with what truly matters to them rather than being driven by external pressures or perfectionism.
• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT focuses on identifying and challenging unhelpful thought patterns that contribute to overworking, such as fear of failure or equating self-worth with productivity.
• Psychodynamic Interventions: By exploring the underlying beliefs and experiences that drive workaholic tendencies, psychodynamic therapy helps clients gain deeper self-awareness and break free from entrenched patterns.

Building a Balanced Life

Through workaholism counseling, clients learn strategies to:

• Set boundaries around work and personal time.
• Cultivate self-compassion and reduce perfectionistic tendencies.
• Address anxiety and stress with healthier coping mechanisms.
• Reconnect with loved ones and rebuild strained relationships.
• Rediscover hobbies, interests, and sources of joy outside of work.
