I can understand the frustration when our counselors are out for me it throws things out of wack. That being said regardless of ones occupation time off for good self care is important.

I am on vacation this for no other reason than I am burning out. I have been trying to do the work of three different people on three different units for months. It will be very difficult for my coworkers and even some of my patients. However, I know having me push myself and completely burning will cost more in the end. So my plans for the week, reading sleeping late, going for walks and hiking.

As far as you counselor goes it sounds like is trying to practice good self care. Maybe it is in ways that you would not but it is what makes her feel replenished.
