High-Performance Leadership

Leadership often comes with high stakes, constant demands, and the pressure to excel in both personal and professional realms. I specialize in working with executives and high-performing professionals, offering tailored support to help you manage stress, enhance focus, and align your leadership goals with your personal values. Whether you’re striving for greater clarity, resilience, or balance, therapy provides the tools and insights to help you thrive.

Experience and Passion
Before becoming a psychotherapist, I spent a decade working in eCommerce and marketing, gaining firsthand experience of high-pressure environments and the unique challenges leaders face. This background has given me a deep appreciation for the demands of leadership roles, from managing teams to balancing personal and professional expectations. I’m passionate about helping high performers develop the self-awareness, emotional resilience, and strategic mindset needed to excel—not just in their careers, but in their lives as a whole.

Objectives for Leadership Work
Our work together might focus on:

  • Managing stress and preventing burnout to improve performance and focus.

  • Enhancing emotional intelligence and interpersonal skills for stronger teams.

  • Clarifying personal and professional goals for alignment and fulfillment.

  • Building resilience to navigate high-stakes situations effectively.

  • Strengthening work-life balance to sustain long-term success.


Investing in your mental well-being as a leader can have a ripple effect on your professional and personal life. Reduced stress and enhanced clarity can lead to better decision-making, improved productivity, and stronger relationships within your team and beyond. Therapy can help you operate at your full potential, creating lasting benefits that go far beyond the immediate challenges.

Next Steps
I offer virtual and telephone sessions, making it easier to fit therapy into a demanding schedule. Many executives find that regular sessions provide a vital space for reflection, growth, and recalibration. To get started, book a free 15-minute consultation. We’ll discuss your goals and explore how therapy can support your journey toward becoming a more resilient, effective, and fulfilled leader.
