Founders often carry immense pressure behind the scenes. Juggling ambition, responsibility, and the expectations of others while trying to maintain your own standards can be draining and heavy. This weight can manifest as anxiety, stress, or a profound sense of isolation. It can wreck havoc on your nervous system putting you in a perpetual state of fight or flight. Our work focuses on both easing the immediate strain, and strengthening the mindset and habits that support sustainable, long-term performance. When clarity fades, even success can feel empty. Together, we’ll uncover what’s holding you back whether it’s anxiety, relationship challenges, addictive patterns, or unresolved trauma. We will work together to reconnect you with purpose and direction. I believe meaningful change happens when you feel supported, understood, and productively challenged. I offer a therapeutic environment rooted in acceptance and honesty. A results-oriented approach helps you move forward with confidence. We’ll set clear goals and acknowledge growth along the way. While I value the ongoing momentum of weekly sessions, I also offer focused intensives for those navigating pivotal moments or seeking faster traction. Please reach out anytime. I look forward to working with you! Emily About Me: I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology and completed an advanced two-year training program at the Middleberg Institute, where I focused on attachment theory and the neuroscience of human behavior. For more than a decade, I’ve supported founders and high-performers in my private practice helping them navigate the emotional and cognitive demands of building and leading at scale. I’m a proud mentor at Capital Factory and serve as an in-house coach for VC firms, startups, and growth-stage companies, working with both executives and teams. While my clinical background informs my approach, not everyone needs psychotherapy. If performance and leadership coaching is more aligned with your goals, we can explore a coaching framework designed specifically for your needs and aspirations.
