Hospitality is fast-paced, demanding, and often emotionally draining—but support is possible. In this blog, counsellor (and former hospitality worker) Alex Henderson explores the unique mental health challenges of the service industry. From burnout and emotional exhaustion to addiction and anxiety, we break down the impact of hospitality work and offer tools for resilience, self-care, and emotional regulation. Whether you're working in Vancouver's restaurant scene or in a resort town like Whistler or Squamish, therapy can help you stay grounded. Learn how counselling—online across BC or in person in downtown Vancouver—can support hospitality workers in building sustainable, balanced lives.
