 I was invited by the Chief of Psychology Residents to participate in the Informative Conferences on Burn Out Prevention for Psychologists and Psychiatrists. The conference was titled"Burn out Management: for Health Professionals.".

I approached this topic from Neuroscience and Psychoanalysis: 

• At first we discussed what stress and burn out is and how they have an effect at a physiological and psychological level. 

• We then discussed the particularities of work related stress and their influence in our health. 

• Thirdly we discussed from a Psychoanalytical perspective the functioning of the psyche of people undergoing burn out and how it manifests and structures.

• We finished by discussing and practicing different techniques to prevent Burn Out and ways to counteract its effects once installed
