How can I (F 25) best support my partner (M 27). His work is mentally exhausting.

I met my boyfriend about 11 months ago. I love our relationship and him, I see a future with this man.
The only concern is I am unsure about how I can best support him. He is a therapist, and sees about 4-5 clients per day during the week. Recently, I've noticed that he is constantly exhausted and tells me he is "brain dead" it's not a big deal, but we are slightly long distance, so sometimes we will have phone calls where he is not really present. I understand that this occupation is difficult, but it seems as though he is able to separate work from home.
I would like advice on how to best support him after work? Especially since we plan to live together in 6 months. I give him space after work and wait for him to call me, but if I have something important to bring up, or l've had an especially bad day, it's hard for me to tell him because of how exhausted he seems after work.
