Book reviews
Recommended by psychiatrists, psychotherapists, and organizational consultants.
„“Anatomy of Burnout” is written thoroughly, drawing on extensive literature and the author's personal experience. The language is simple and clear, requiring no specialized background. The very practical advice section suits both those suffering from burnout and those helping them. I recommend the book to everyone who works enthusiastically, as well as those whose enthusiasm has already taken a toll. Good luck reading. And don't rush.“
Dr. Eugenijus Laurinaitis
psychiatrist, psychotherapist
„Ugnė wrote a book I now envy, because it is the most comprehensive guide on how to get out of burnout and not return to it. Everyone will find suitable, science-backed ways to deal with burnout.“
Dainius Jakučionis
psychotherapist
„Ugnė wisely combines carefully selected scientific sources with her long experience as a psychologist and organizational consultant. The fact that the author herself has lived through and successfully overcome burnout adds extra value, meaning, and humanity to the book.“
Povilas Godliauskas
psychologist, researcher, IT organizations consultant
„The author helps recognize the line that is crossed long before we dare admit to ourselves that we can no longer go on like this. In the book, burnout emerges as a crisis in our relationship with ourselves and our work, inviting us to choose between yet more work, pace, and tangled commitments, or an abundance of life.“
Prof. dr. Agota Giedrė Raišienė
