Therapy for Anxious and Depressed High Achievers
From Overwhelm to Peace of Mind
People with strong minds, bold vision, and deep commitment often also have strong sensitivities and strong emotions.
What wonderful gifts! Except when not.
Like when your internal world is over-the-top intense.
Or the external world berates you:
“Tone it down!”
“You think too much.”
“You’re making it harder than it is.”
Or those gut punches: “That’s not practical. Nobody will pay for that.”
Trying to live with those scolding voices as well as your intense thoughts, emotions, and sensitivities can make for a resounding cacophony. You’re probably great at telling yourself:
“What’s wrong with me?!!” “Why is life so much easier for everyone else?” “I just need to try harder.”
And so you use your wonderful mind to try to figure it out. And you work harder and harder and get more and more exhausted and more and more miserable.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
Folks who work with me say:
“I can tell I handle things now I wouldn’t have been able to handle before. Before seeing you, I would’ve been in bed for days when stuff like that happened. I can keep going now. And even have a good time!”
“No one else asks questions the way you do. I go deeper with you.”
“You get it. I don’t have to explain everything.”
“Parts work works!! I’ve made more progress in months than I made in years!!
“I don’t feel like the world is out to get me anymore. I didn’t know that was possible. Thank you.”
“You help me see things I couldn’t see before and it’s fine now. I know what to do.”
“I feel better than I’ve ever felt!”
