Choices works with organisations and professionals across healthcare, public health, local and central government, higher education, third-sector organisations and other emotionally demanding professional settings.

The services are designed for professionals, teams and leaders working in complex, relational or emotionally demanding roles where reflection, dialogue, wellbeing and sustainable professional practice are important.

Burnout and compassion fatigue are terms used to describe the impact of prolonged workplace stress and emotional demands.

Burnout is usually linked to chronic workplace pressure, exhaustion and feeling overwhelmed by work demands. Compassion fatigue is more commonly associated with helping professions and can arise through ongoing exposure to distress, trauma or the emotional experiences of others.

Both can affect wellbeing, connection, motivation and the ability to sustain compassionate professional practice over time.

Structured reflective spaces can support workplace wellbeing by helping professionals process complexity, emotional labour and challenging experiences in a psychologically safe environment. In emotionally demanding roles, reflective practice can help reduce isolation, strengthen connection and reflective thinking, and support healthier, more sustainable ways of working. Reflective spaces are increasingly being used within healthcare, public service and helping professions to help address workplace stress, burnout and compassion fatigue.
