Therapy for executives & Professionals

We help high-performing professionals manage the pressures of the workplace, achieve their goals, and create balance in their lives.

 
 

By all accounts, you have a successful career. And while it may look like you “have it all” from the outside, what no one sees is the self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and chronic stress that’s under the surface.

It’s starting to affect more than just your work, too. Your relationships are suffering as you struggle to show up as the partner or parent you want to be. Your health and sleep are deteriorating. 

You know something needs to change.

Meet your therapist

I’m Kari. I’ll help you understand & address what’s holding you back so you can experience sustainable, transformational change.

Having spent 6 years in the international corporate sector prior to becoming a therapist and Founder of Coastal Minds Counseling, I know what it’s like to work in an intense, demanding environment. I also know how life-changing it can be to get support.

My work with executives is collaborative and personalized to you: by drawing from various approaches from neurobiology to insight-oriented therapy, we can create a custom plan based around your goals, strengths, and unique circumstances. Therapy with me isn’t just about reducing symptoms or providing “tools”—it’s about fostering deep, long-term change. I also incorporate executive coaching strategies, mind-body connection, and EMDR based upon your needs.

We’ll look at all areas of your life—both in your work and outside of it—in order to increase your sense of joy and fulfillment in each one. I’m here to help expand your awareness of what’s getting in the way, and then build skills to help you show up confidently in even the most difficult of situations.
