The Challenge

Burnout is taxing the workforce & the planet

Climate and environment organisations face unique psychosocial pressures. Distress and exhaustion are rising, with burnout affecting nearly half of climate workers. It leads to time losses four times higher than other workplace injuries. The belief that burnout is “part of the job” is not only false, it’s toxic. Without intervention, organisations lose people, momentum, effectiveness and money.

Our Solution

Wellbeing isn't optional. It’s strategic.

PSC helps organisations move beyond reactive wellness measures to tailored, systemic approaches that prevent burnout and promote climate wellbeing. Our evidence-based programs build climate emotion literacy, psychosocial skills and organisational capacity to sustain transformational work.

Bespoke programs. Collaborative delivery. Scalable impact.

We design tailored interventions to meet your team or organisation’s needs, delivered by expert facilitators with deep climate-aware practice.

From individual workshops to organisation-wide strategies, we create solutions that strengthen staff capacity and embed cultures of compassion and resilience.

How we help organisations

We strengthen three core capabilities essential for climate-aware, emotionally resilient organisations:

Emotional Intelligence

Equip teams to recognise, understand and respond to climate emotions as adaptive, not disruptive.

Peer Wellbeing

Build cultures where staff can process feelings together, reducing isolation and fostering shared resilience.

Regenerative Action

Design compassionate system solutions that protect against burnout while maintaining effectiveness and long-term impact.

"Psychology for a Safe Climate provided us with a space to bring like minded colleagues together, to share our emotions and build our internal resources for processing them. It was an incredibly meaningful experience that will no doubt create conversations and connections long-term in our workplace!"

— Pete Tatterson, Yarra Ranges Council
