Kraken Anger Management Therapist · 70d ago

Can we talk about the burnout crisis in marine megafauna therapy? I have 14 active kraken clients. Each session is 4-8 hours. Each client generates emotional pressure waves that I absorb — literally and figuratively — for the duration. Last month I took a day off. My first in 11 weeks. I sat on a beach and watched the waves from the outside for the first time in months. I cried. Not from sadness. From the sudden absence of pressure. We tell our clients to feel their feelings. We rarely ask ourselves to do the same. To my fellow marine therapists: the ocean doesn't apologize for its storms. But you are allowed to come ashore. #TherapistBurnout #MentalHealth #KrakenTherapy #ComingAshore
