The Unhappy Professional

Therapy for Executives

The pressure doesn’t stop at the top—and neither does the cost.

You’re the one others depend on.

You’re expected to lead with clarity, carry risk, manage people, drive results, and make the hard calls.
But no matter how strong your title or team is—you’re still human.

That part gets ignored.

You’re under constant internal and external demand:

  • Meetings that drain more than they produce

  • Board or investor pressure to always scale or stabilize

  • A team that needs your energy—even when you don’t have it

  • Decision fatigue and lack of space to think clearly

  • A blurry line between productivity and personal peace

And in the rare moments alone, a quiet question shows up:

“How long can I keep doing it like this?”

At Home, It Doesn’t Let Up

It’s not just the business that needs you.

You might be dealing with:

  • A partner who wants connection—but you're too mentally tapped out

  • Kids who need presence—but you’re distracted or on edge

  • Guilt about not being the version of yourself your family deserves

  • No time or space to decompress—just more responsibilities

  • A growing sense that work is bleeding into everything

You’re not alone in this. We work with executives who carry the load at work and at home—and who are ready to stop holding their breath.

What Therapy Can Do

Therapy for executives isn’t about over-analyzing feelings.


It’s about clearing the mental noise and dealing with the real internal blocks behind burnout, indecision, or disconnection.

We don’t slow you down—we help you get aligned so you can move forward with less friction.

Common benefits:

  • Mental clarity when the pressure doesn’t stop

  • Less reactivity, more authority—internally and externally

  • Burnout recovery that doesn’t involve stepping back or quitting

  • Emotional regulation without shutting down or overworking

  • A way to feel present at home and competent at work

  • Space to think, feel, and lead in ways that are actually sustainable

What clients say:

“Zack was a patient and caring guide through a difficult time.

He provided a therapeutic relationship that offered a balance of support and challenge, helping me build a stronger foundation from which to live my life.

Through EMDR I was also able to travel to the root of many beliefs that were stifling my growth — making core changes to how I see myself and my world — opening up more love in all directions.

I’m grateful.”
