From Wall Street to Wellness: Helping High-Performers Reclaim Their Lives

For 14 years, I worked in the high-pressure world of the securities industry—where 60-hour weeks, impossible deadlines, and constant performance demands were simply “part of the job.” I left the industry as a Director of Operations, holding multiple securities licenses, with firsthand experience managing teams, performance demands, and regulatory pressure. I witnessed colleagues burn out, relationships suffer, and talented professionals slowly lose themselves to chronic stress. That experience didn’t break me—it redirected me.

Today, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Trauma-Informed Practitioner specializing in corporate professional counseling, supporting high-achievers and women in demanding careers who are navigating burnout, anxiety, people-pleasing, and the emotional toll of high expectations.

I work with clients who appear successful on the outside but feel depleted, overwhelmed, or disconnected on the inside. Many are managing toxic work environments, chronic stress, or the belief that rest and boundaries are luxuries they haven’t earned. My role is to provide a safe, judgment-free space where clients can slow down, reconnect with themselves, and begin building lives that are sustainable—not just impressive. I also share burnout recovery strategies tailored to their unique needs.

Over time, my clinical work revealed a broader pattern: the same burnout I was helping clients heal from individually was being reinforced inside workplaces and leadership cultures. As a result, I’ve expanded my work to include trauma-informed leadership consulting, helping organizations recognize burnout earlier and address it at the systems level—before individuals reach a breaking point.

Whether through therapy or leadership education, my work is grounded in lived experience, clinical insight, and a deep belief that high performance should never come at the cost of health, identity, or well-being.

I blend trauma-informed therapies—including Brain-Spotting, EMDR, Internal Family Systems, and Emotion-Focused Therapy—with real-world insight into workplace dynamics, focusing on corporate professional counseling. 

Together, we'll develop effective burnout recovery strategies to help you:

• Set boundaries without guilt
• Manage workplace anxiety and stress
• Recover from burnout and rediscover what matters
• Navigate career transitions with confidence
• Find your voice in spaces where you've felt silenced, all while embracing trauma-informed leadership consulting.

Attachment wounds often manifest in various aspects of life, including corporate professional counseling. Addressing men's issues and relationship issues that stem from these attachment wounds is crucial for effective burnout recovery strategies. My focus extends to complex trauma, such as childhood trauma, intergenerational trauma, and relationship trauma, particularly for those who are neurodivergent, including ADHD, Asperger's, or Autism. 

I also offer trauma-informed leadership consulting to help leaders understand and support those dealing with these challenges.
