Summer in Jackson Hole is often associated with adventure, sunshine, and beauty. But if you’ve found yourself feeling emotionally drained or mentally off-track—you're not alone.
While longer days and warm weather might lift some people’s moods, others experience what I call “seasonal burnout.”The pressure to “enjoy every moment” or “make the most of summer” can be overwhelming—especially if you're already carrying emotional stress.
Common Signs of Summer Burnout
Feeling numb or detached, even during enjoyable activities
Increased irritability, anxiety, or difficulty sleeping
Guilt or shame for not “feeling happy enough”
Avoiding social events or overcommitting to stay distracted
Feeling stuck in old patterns that you thought you’d moved past
If any of this sounds familiar, therapy might help you reset and reconnect with yourself.
Why Summer Can Stir Up Emotional Challenges
Transitions often bring up old emotions—whether it's a change in pace, travel, family dynamics, or simply having more “space” in your schedule. Many people find that their internal world becomes louder when life slows down, even briefly.
As a Jackson Hole therapist, I work with people who look like they “have it all together” on the outside—but inside, they’re carrying anxiety, grief, trauma, or self-doubt.
Therapy is a safe, confidential space to unpack that emotional weight without judgment.
How Therapy Can Help You Recenter
In therapy, we slow things down. Together, we explore your emotions, your past, and what you need now—not to fix you, but to help you feel more grounded, empowered, and emotionally clear.
Whether you’re facing:
Anxiety or overthinking
Relationship stress or disconnection
Grief or unresolved trauma
Burnout or self-doubt
Therapy offers a place to pause, reflect, and grow.
