Trusted Therapist for High-Achieving Individuals, Entrepreneurs & Business Owners in California and New York
If you're a high-achieving entrepreneur, business owner, or executive, you're used to being the one who holds it all together. From scaling companies to making life-changing decisions, you’ve built your success through focus, strategy, and resilience. But behind the performance, many high performers quietly experience burnout, anxiety, depression, or substance use, and rarely feel safe enough to talk about it.
As a therapist for high-net-worth individuals in California and New York, I specialize in supporting professionals who are successful on the outside but secretly overwhelmed, disconnected, or running on fumes.
Why Entrepreneurs and High Performers Are Turning to Therapy
Even those at the top face emotional struggles like:
High-functioning anxiety, constant overthinking, or racing thoughts
Insomnia and difficulty winding down
Depression masked by productivity
Burnout from people-pleasing, overworking, or endless pressure
Substance use (alcohol, weed, stimulants, or compulsive behaviors)
Intimacy issues or emotional avoidance in relationships
Isolation and the fear of losing control or failing
These issues don’t mean you’re weak. They mean your coping strategies are maxed out—and what got you here is no longer sustainable.
You Need More Than Just Talk Therapy—You Need a Strategic Clinical Partner
Many of my clients come in saying:
“I’ve been to therapy, but I need someone who’s actually skilled, clinical, and gets the way my mind works.”
I combine a warm, real connection with a results-driven, diagnostic approach that helps high performers:
Get clear on what’s actually going on beneath the surface
Understand the root of their emotional patterns
Learn tools to regulate their nervous system and emotions
Rebuild internal clarity, peace, and self-trust
My specialties include:
Therapy for entrepreneurs, founders, and high-functioning professionals
Mental health support for high-net-worth individuals and business owners
Treatment for depression, anxiety, substance use, and burnout
Religious trauma, identity transitions, and intimacy struggles
A Clinical Approach That Meets You Where You Are
This is not aimless talk therapy. I use a structured, science-backed approach that includes:
CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) to shift self-sabotaging thought loops
DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) for boundary work and emotional regulation
IFS (Internal Family Systems) and parts work to reconnect with yourself
Somatic therapy to release emotional tension stored in the body
This is for people who are ready to stop overfunctioning and start feeling again—with clarity, stability, and purpose.
