Preventing, spotting and addressing burnout

Practical training that builds confidence and effectiveness: how managers and leaders prevent burnout in their teams, recognise the first signs and address them.

Where personal, relational and organisational psychology meet

Burnout, stress and ongoing fatigue rarely have a single cause. They may affect everything, or only certain situations and relationships. Energy and joy fade, and communicating or working together starts to feel draining. Often it is not clear where the difficulty comes from, or how to deal with it. It simply gets in the way.

Untangling it matters. We have one life to live, and it is worth not waiting too long before things take on a life of their own.

For more than 20 years I have counselled and coached individuals, couples, managers and leaders. My research on burnout in international organisations has deepened my understanding of how we relate to ourselves and to others. I combine this experience with current research from neuroscience and from personal, relational and organisational psychology, so that our work together is focused and effective.

The common thread

Confidence follows competence. I help you build the social and relational skills that make a real difference, at home and at work.

Individuals & Couples

Counselling and coaching for professionals and couples navigating demanding careers and relationships, often far from home. We work on self-awareness, emotional intelligence, communication and resilience, so that relationships, at home and at work, become stronger.

What we can work on

  • Complex thoughts and emotions
  • Emotional intelligence: understanding and handling your own emotions and other people’s
  • Personal and professional dynamics
  • Communication and conflict resolution
  • Mediation between partners, family members or colleagues

How it works

  • A first conversation to see whether we fit
  • Sessions in Nyon or online, in English or German
  • Deeply experienced and trained in a variety of models, so the approach fits you, not the other way around
  • My work combines Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Imago Relationship Coaching and a Solution Focused approach

“I walked into Marit’s office hoping to save my marriage. I walked out not only with my family intact but with a whole new set of skills that changed everything.”

“She created an environment where I felt comfortable being vulnerable and honest, without fear of judgement or criticism.”

Managers & Leaders

Training for managers and leaders: preventing and addressing burnout

Burnout in international organisations and multicultural teams is on the rise. I support organisations to see where the risk sits and build programmes that fit their culture and operations.

I work with many managers and leaders in finance, international cooperation and international organisations.

Problems you may recognise

  • Capable people quietly disengaging, or leaving after a short time
  • Rising sick leave or exhaustion that wellbeing initiatives have not changed
  • Conflict between teams or cultures that nobody names
  • Managers who avoid sensitive conversations because they do not feel safe having them
  • Reorganisation or budget cuts landing on people who are already stretched

How we would work together

  1. A first conversation. You describe what you are seeing; I tell you honestly whether I can help.
  2. Diagnosis. Interviews, short surveys or a review of existing data, reported in aggregate only.
  3. Programme design. A tailored plan built around your culture, calendar and constraints.
  4. Delivery. Workshops, leader coaching and team sessions, in English or German, on site or online.
  5. Review. What changed, what did not, and what to do next.

Formats: leadership workshops on psychological safety · team sessions on communication and conflict · one-to-one coaching for managers and senior leaders · mediation · talks and keynotes

Research

My MSc thesis, Burnout in International Organisations: The Impact of Work Environment, Gender, Personal and Organisational Predictors (2025), surveyed professionals in international organisations. Its main findings:

  • Self-compassion was the strongest protective factor against burnout.
  • Supervisory support and psychological safety predicted lower burnout; loneliness predicted higher burnout.
  • Working remotely, hybrid or in the office made no significant difference.
  • Women reported significantly higher burnout than men.

Burnout, in other words, is fundamentally relational: leadership, psychological safety and connection matter.
