An 8-week live group programme grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, sleep science, and the Job Demands–Resources framework. Led personally by Werner Teichert, AHPRA-registered Clinical Psychologist, MBA. Maximum 10 participants.
Who this is for
The Intensive is designed for high-performing professionals who have already tried the obvious things — the holiday, the long weekend, the boundary-setting — and found themselves back in the same place within weeks. Rest recovers your energy. This programme recovers your relationship with work.
Carrying others' load while running on empty. Compassion fatigue layered on top of structural burnout.
Responsible for everything, accountable to everyone. The job has expanded beyond what's sustainable.
Chronic under-resourcing, high performance expectations, identity deeply tied to professional output.
Law, finance, consulting — environments where long hours and self-sacrifice are structural, not optional.
The journey
Each week combines a live group session with Werner, daily platform check-ins, and AI-supported practice between sessions. The learning doesn't stop when the Zoom call ends.
Complete your enrolment and receive your onboarding guide within 48 hours. Before Week 1 begins, you'll have a personal 15-minute call with Werner to map your specific burnout profile and set your recovery intention.
One 90-minute session per week with Werner and your cohort. Small group — you'll know everyone by name within two weeks. Sessions are recorded; miss one without losing continuity. Specific time confirmed with applicants once Cohort 1 is full.
AM and PM prompts track your sleep, energy, and stress load. Your AI Coach adapts guidance based on your data and is available 24/7 between sessions for anything that comes up.
Build your Personal Operating Manual and 90-day sustainment plan. Platform access continues for 90 days post-programme so you can lock in lasting change before deciding on ongoing support.
The curriculum
Each session builds on the last. By Week 8 you have a complete toolkit and a personalised plan for sustaining what you've built.
Why your nervous system got here — and what it takes to recover. The biology behind chronic exhaustion, and how your specific pattern maps onto it.
The exhaustion trap keeping high performers stuck. Learn why your default coping strategies are deepening burnout, not resolving it.
Breaking the rumination loop that steals your rest. Practical techniques for interrupting anxious thinking when it matters most.
The science of nervous system recovery after burnout. Sleep window calibration, stimulus control, and wind-down protocols that work.
Values-based recovery when everything feels pointless. Reconnect with what matters and use it to guide sustainable decisions.
Setting and maintaining boundaries without guilt. Scripts, frameworks, and communication strategies for real workplace situations.
Building lasting energy and performance after depletion. Capacity planning, early warning systems, and workload design.
Your evidence-based long-term protection plan. Build your Personal Operating Manual and 90-day sustainment commitments.
Everything included
90 minutes each. Small cohort of max 10. You'll know everyone by name within two weeks.
Before Week 1. Werner maps your specific burnout profile and sets your recovery intention with you.
All 8 modules, micro-practice library, sleep protocol, workplace templates, and progress tracking.
Built on Werner's clinical methodology and the ACT framework that anchors the live sessions. Ask it anything between sessions. Available 24/7 — the same psychological frame, just at 3am when you need it.
Built from the validated OLBI screening instrument, your intake, and your first two weeks of daily data. Werner reads the pattern and writes you a structured profile — what's depleted, what's working, where to focus. Not a clinical diagnosis. A clear psychological read from an AHPRA-registered Clinical Psychologist.
Every session recorded and available within 24 hours. Miss one without losing continuity.
Platform access continues after completion. Build the habit before deciding on ongoing support.
Structured progress tracking
Daily check-ins build a real picture of your recovery across 8 weeks — sleep, energy, mood, and stress load. Your AI Coach adapts guidance based on your data. Werner reviews trends before each session.

— Werner Teichert, Clinical Psychologist (AHPRA), MBA
BurnoutOS is a skills-based coaching and psychoeducation programme operating within a clearly defined scope of practice. It is not a clinical or therapeutic service and does not constitute a therapeutic relationship or replace individual clinical treatment. Safety signposting and crisis resources are built in throughout. If individual clinical support is what you need, Werner can help you find it.
Questions
This is a structured psychoeducational programme, not individual therapy. Werner is an AHPRA-registered Clinical Psychologist facilitating a skills-based group — you're learning evidence-based tools in a peer context. If you need individual clinical support alongside the programme, Werner can discuss that separately.
Sessions are recorded and available within 24 hours. We recommend attending live for the group dynamic and accountability, but life happens. Missing one session won't break the programme for you.
Maximum 10 participants. Cohort composition is curated for professional context compatibility — leaders, clinicians, and senior professionals. The small size is intentional: you'll hear others articulate exactly what you're experiencing, which is itself powerful.
Yes. South African applicants are welcome — ZAR 24,950 at checkout. Werner is registered with HPCSA. Session times are scheduled to work for both AEST and SAST cohort members. UK applicants are welcome too — get in touch for current GBP pricing.
