Workaholism therapy FAQs

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?

Hard work isn’t just respectable – it often genuinely gets things done.  It can pay the bills, help people at home, or move you up in the world.

But when being productive becomes an obsession, it’s a hard one to resist. Contact Thriveworks Austin for help with workaholic symptoms—call us or book online to get started.

What Are Common Workaholism Causes?

Some common causes include:

  •  High Workload (too much to do, no chance of catching up)
  •  Low Control (less say in what you do or what happens to you)
  •  Low Reward and Recognition (if nothing you do right changes how people see you or your future at the company)
  •  Little Sense of Community (feeling disconnected from others, not part of the group)
  •  Low Sense of Fairness (biases and favoritism, distrusting that there will be support for good people, causes, or ideas)
  •  Low Sense of Values (company not living up to its moral goals, doing more harm than good)

How Will A Thriveworks Therapist Help Treat My Workaholism?

★★★★☆
Cassandra- my provider, is amazing. She doesn't give me any answers, she just helps me process through them and helps me come up with the answers I need. She truly is an amazing provider and she makes a point to reflect on what she heard, give a little bit of feedback, then ask how the client feels about it.
