Common approaches to Workaholism therapy

Starting Workaholism therapy in Austin

What is workaholism therapy?

Workaholism therapy helps those who have an unhealthy relationship with work. A person suffering from workaholism has an obsessive focus on their career, an inability to focus or even carry on a conversation about any other topic, and a willingness to sacrifice any other relationships or hobbies — Thriveworks therapists in Austin, TX will help them improve their habits and cope with the challenges that stem from their workaholism.

How does workaholism therapy work?

Workaholism therapy works by helping workaholics see how their addiction hurts themselves as well as their loved ones. Thriveworks therapists in Austin, TX can help create a new reality and lasting change. We can help workaholics understand how their long hours, lack of attention to loved ones, and obsessive need to achieve are detrimental to their overall happiness and health.

Is workaholism therapy conducted in person or online?

Workaholism therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and through Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does workaholism therapy last?

The length of workaholism therapy depends on the individual’s needs as well as the extent and severity of their workaholism and the problems that might stem from it. That said, people can make meaningful progress in the first weeks to months of therapy.

Need more help deciding?

Career and work are very important. In America, we place a great deal of importance on achievement and success. We want our children to go to the best schools, so they can get in to the best colleges, and then get a prestigious job. This constant attention can lead to an obsessive desire to succeed in career. However, this desire can then lead to a lack of attention to other areas of life. If it becomes difficult to concentrate on anything other than work, if you lose touch with anyone outside of work, if your family and relationships suffer, you may be suffering from workaholism.

Workaholism can have physical effects on the body as well. Headaches, high blood pressure, and fatigue can develop from this unhealthy obsession. If you are the loved one of a workaholic, you can end up feeling very alone and unsure about the future of your relationship.  Your spouse or partner may receive a great deal of accolades at work, and be highly admired. But at home, they are barely present. The workaholic may not even be able to make eye contact or carry on a conversation about anything other than work. Thriveworks Austin counselors can help both the workaholic and the relationship.

At Thriveworks Austin, we do not operate with waiting lists. We have appointments available for new clients within 24 hours. We want to be ready when we are needed. Call us today to get started. It would be our honor to walk with you on this journey of recovery and healing.

Availability, knowledge and expertise. They all seem to have the ability to listen and advise. My only criticism is that counseling is not accessible to me in a period of crisis.

I feel that my clinician is truly listening and processing the things I say. I appreciate the feedback/tools I have received thus far. I do not feel any sort of judgment or misinterpretation of what I am expressing. Claire is phenomenal!

It felt great to get some of the things that were stewing in my head out to someone. As women we tend to take a lot. Gay is a very nice woman. I think I may have needed someone a little younger. We had good conversations but remembering me as a person was a struggle. Maybe it's the work load. I haven't been able to vent to anyone in a long time so it felt great to do that. I think if I seek therapy in the future that I would prefer if the work load wasn't as hard on the therapist. I do feel like the therapy was a lot of things I already knew due to past experiences. It would be nice to have therapy sessions with people who can somewhat remember our past conversations. Again Gay is a great person and tried to help me to the best of her abilities. She is a great senior therapist and could help some folks that may not know the strategies for combating stress and anxiety. I do not regret reaching out

Amazing!!! I am beyond happy with the services provided by Dr. Nunez. She has been so amazing with my children and I am beyond grateful for her and ThriveWorks. I’d recommend her to anyone. She is incredibly talented and listens without judgement. If I could I’d give her a zillion stars for having the most positive, profound impact on our lives!

I needed someone who was strong, kind, listened and was action oriented who had the experience to deal with the trauma I was struck with when I experienced severe loss of a loved one in 2016. Linda was and is present, intelligent, professional, human, warm and kind and at every session she has offered me practical solutions to face my life and my day to day activities. I highly recommend her. She Is so good it is very hard to get an appointment with her but if you can get one keep it. She is fabulous and will heal your spirit and soul in a safe and loving place. I love her strength more than anything and her optimism that anyone can get to a better place and not be stuck in pain and hopelessness. She is healing my heart and I feel like I have found a person who truly cares. This is a very good place.

I am gonna cry as I write this review... I have been working with Linda M. since I was married to my abusive ex husband and through my single time and my time meeting and marrying my current very wonderful husband. She has pushed me to be the very best person I can be and literally saved my life on several occasions. I'm moving to VA so I can't see Linda anymore and I'm telling you, this is my hardest goodbye. This woman is beyond amazing. She has forced me to take a good hard look at myself and work on everything: anxiety, borderline and PTSD to make me be a better person. You CANNOT go wrong with Linda. It's amazing how much one person and one session can change your life. I've tried therapy before, many times, with no luck until I got dragged to Thriveworks by someone close to me who wanted therapy to fix me! Well it didn't "fix me" it made me a totally new person. A happier, more confident person willing to take on the world. I even wanted Linda to come to my wedding, but knew she couldn't as she is very professional and this is against policy. But I would have had her there in a heart beat!
