Exhausted but wired. Your body is biologically depleted, yet the internal engine refuses to turn off. Sleep brings no restoration. You perform competence while running on empty. The things that once brought meaning now feel hollow, and you cannot locate the version of yourself that cared.
What SOMA Offers
Widening the Window of Tolerance
SOMA offers specialized neuro-informed care designed to systematically widen your window of tolerance (Ogden) and transition your system out of chronic survival states. Burnout is not a productivity problem. It is a nervous system problem, the result of sustained activation without adequate recovery.
Chronic stress and burnout dysregulate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, disrupt sleep architecture, and create a feedback loop in which the nervous system loses its capacity to return to baseline. Standard rest does not resolve this. Targeted nervous system intervention does.
SOMA's approach addresses burnout at the biological, psychological, and relational levels simultaneously, using Polyvagal Theory (Porges) as the primary clinical map for understanding and restoring your autonomic capacity.
Burnout recovery is not about doing less. It is about restoring your nervous system's capacity to cycle between activation and rest.
Who This Is For
You may recognize yourself in more than one of these.
You are high-achieving and have been operating at maximum capacity for so long that you have lost access to what rest actually feels like.
You feel emotionally flat, cynical, or detached from work and relationships that used to matter to you.
Your body is sending clear distress signals: disrupted sleep, physical tension, immune dysregulation, or persistent fatigue.
You have taken time off and returned feeling exactly the same.
You are a caregiver, clinician, executive, or first responder who has given more than your system could sustain.
You want to address the root cause, not just manage symptoms.
