You’ve built something remarkable: a business, a career, an innovation.
You’re the one your investors, team, and family count on to make decisions, solve problems, and keep things moving. On the outside, you look like you have it all together. Inside, though, it might feel like you’re barely holding on.
Your mind is swirling with proformas, dreams, and the business of the daily hustle.
You're struggling with communication and leadership of your growing team.
You're trying to keep all the stakeholders happy while you build the company, product, or innovation you believe in.
You tell yourself to be grateful. This is what you wanted, that you chose this life. But you’re running on fumes. The pressure to perform, lead, and provide feels overwhelming. You’re so used to pushing forward. Slowing down feels foreign, even impossible.
Founders and entrepreneurs often carry an invisible burden, the constant sense that everything depends on them. You built something from scratch and now feels overwhelmed by its demands.
You’re constantly managing fires, fielding texts at midnight, or skipping meals to squeeze in one more meeting. Even when things are “good,” it’s never enough.
There’s always the next milestone, the next challenge, the next goal.
You can’t turn off your brain even on vacation. Wait, do you take vacations?
You’re exhausted but can’t rest. As soon as you sit still, the guilt or anxiety kicks in.
You worry about letting employees, investors, clients, or your family down.
You’ve stopped doing the things that used to bring joy because there’s “no time".
You’ve let your relationship go, or your body, or your favorite holiday slip by.
You find yourself wondering who you even are outside of work.
Mental health support can help you show up as the best version of yourself, not the most exhausted one.
Imagine waking up without dread about your inbox.
Imagine being able to close your email, slack, messages and be present with your family without checking your phone.
Imagine feeling focused, creative, and at peace, not because you’ve stopped caring, but because you’ve learned how to care for yourself, too.
You can be ambitious and find balance.
In therapy, you get something rare: a place where you don’t have to be “on.”
You don’t have to solve, manage, or optimize anything. You just get to be human.
We’ll explore what’s driving your stress, burnout, or perfectionism and find ways to manage the day to do stress of building and innovating.
We’ll unpack the fears, exhaustion, work 'situation-ships', and constant push from investors to do more.
Quiet the overthinking mind.
Reconnect with your body and intuition.
Set boundaries that protect your time and energy.
Cultivate self-compassion instead of self-criticism.
Reclaim joy and creativity in your work and life.
I work with founders and entrepreneurs using an integrated approach grounded in:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT),
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Relational and humanistic frameworks
Somatic awareness
In plain language: I help you make sense of what’s happening in your mind, reconnect to your body, and align your choices with your deepest values.
You’re used to being the one in charge. You’re not good at asking for help.
Therapy with me isn’t about weakness, it’s about honesty.
We’ll look at what’s working, what isn’t, and what you truly want your life to feel like.
You’ll leave with more insight and more tools to navigate the pressures that come with success.
