Executive Therapy
For leaders who are successful and still feel lost in who they are.
“A journey for executives who are no longer willing to live successful lives that feel internally empty.”
On paper, everything may look right: responsibility, leadership, achievement, stability.
And yet, you feel unseen, unheard, and fundamentally alone in this space.
Executive therapy is not about fixing what
is broken. It is about creating space to understand who you are beneath performance, roles, and expectations,
and to live from that place with greater freedom and integrity.
What Executive Therapy Is
Executive therapy is a confidential, depth-oriented therapeutic relationship for leaders who want to explore identity, meaning, relational and emotional life, and internal coherence.
Suitable clients are highly capable and outwardly successful. Distress may or may not be present. What brings them to therapy is often quieter:
disconnection from self or others;
loneliness at the top;
emotional constriction;
a desire to slow down and live more deliberately.
This work invites honesty, presence, and responsibility, without performance.
Who This Work Is For
Executive therapy may be a fit if you are:
ready to invest in yourself beyond performance metrics;
willing to slow down rather than bypass discomfort;
open to being challenged with care and honesty;
seeking depth, meaning, and self-authorship;
interested in understanding yourself more fully, not just functioning better.

Therapeutic Approaches
My work is integrative, experiential, and relational. I draw from many established modalities while meeting each client as a whole person, not a diagnosis or role. Commonly used modalities include:
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Exploring the different “parts” of the inner world with curiosity and compassion, supporting greater internal harmony and self-leadership.
Somatic Therapy
Attending to the nervous system and bodily experience, recognizing that insight alone is often not enough for lasting
change.
Emotionally Focused Individual
Therapy (EFIT)
An attachment-focused approach that supports emotional access, relational
safety, and deeper connection with self and others.
Existential Therapy
Working with themes of identity, freedom, responsibility, meaning, and authenticity, particularly relevant for individuals navigating power, choice, and significance.
Faith-Informed Integration
Christian-informed psychotherapy is available for clients who wish to integrate faith. Faith is never assumed or imposed.
Cognitive and Behavioral
Therapies
Drawing on CBT, ACT, DBT, mindfulness, reality, and narrative therapies to foster emotional regulation, values-aligned behavior, and meaning-centered self-authorship.

While both therapy and coaching can support growth, they serve different purposes and are held within distinct professional boundaries.
Therapy focuses on the inner world, emotional patterns, attachment history, identity formation, meaning-making, and the ways past experiences continue to shape present life.
Coaching is future-oriented and action-focused. It supports leadership presence and identity, relational effectiveness, regulation under pressure, and values-aligned decision-making.
While coaching is informed by psychological depth, it does not provide therapeutic treatment and does not address clinical concerns.
Both can be valuable. If you’re unsure which would serve you best, a private consultation offers space to explore fit and determine the level of support most appropriate at this stage.
