This might not work for everyone but for me - start writing anyway.
The physical act of putting pen to paper or fingertips to keys means you're overcoming one part of blockage. Sure, you still have to come up with creative and engaging copy... but you're at least in the arena and battling.
Then write a sentence that states a goal. It can be what your protagonist wants to accomplish or it can be a non-fiction issue that can be improved... just put your fingers in charge and keep going until the brain sees how happy you are to be writing again and takes over from there!
