Comparing therapy and recovery programs for burnout
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study compares three approaches to help people with burnout get better: one uses a type of therapy called ACT (which helps you handle difficult thoughts and feelings), another focuses on rest and recovery, and a third combines therapy with extra job support. If you join, you'll be assigned to one of these programs to see which works best for getting back to work and feeling like yourself.
