Many people look like they are coping. They meet deadlines, show up for others, keep performing, and appear “fine” on the outside. But beneath the surface, they may be carrying emotional exhaustion, numbness, self-criticism, burnout or depression.
This HPCSA-accredited CPD webinar, hosted by the Regenesys School of Psychology, explores the hidden cost of functioning under pressure. Led by Dr Tumi Mashego, the session will help psychology professionals better understand how burnout and high-functioning depression can present in clients who still appear productive, successful and composed.
What the Webinar Will Cover
This session will unpack the often-hidden signs of burnout and high-functioning depression, especially in people who continue to perform well while struggling internally.Attendees will gain insight into how to identify subtle signs of distress, understand the relationship between burnout and depression, and explore practical approaches to assessment, intervention, prevention and resilience-building.
Why This Matters
In many high-pressure environments, distress is not always obvious. Some clients continue working, leading and caring for others while quietly feeling depleted, disconnected or emotionally overwhelmed. For practitioners, this makes it important to look beyond performance and pay closer attention to the internal experience of the person in front of you.Meet the Speaker
