Mental Health Therapy for the ambitious professionals or entrepreneurs in Ogden, Utah.
We live in a world that praises our ability to do as much as we possibly can — and do it all perfectly.
Stress and anxiety are the human body’s natural responses to all that pressure and expectation.
For the high-achievers I work with, anxiety can be what drives them to push through even when they’re tired. To put everyone else first, stay on their toes, and only feel okay when ticking something off their to-do-list.
The stress response in their body means it doesn’t matter how much they get done in a day — it never feels okay to relax. When they try to slow down, there’s this overwhelming sense that something will catch them.
There’s too much on their minds to connect deeply with their partner and kids. Too much internal noise for them to switch off, be vulnerable, and enjoy the life they’ve created.
So they keep going until they crash, then start all over again.
Overextending is a strength until one day, it isn’t.
Even if everything looks great from the outside, eventually many high-achievers wonder how they can keep this up without serious damage to their relationships, health and personal wellbeing.
They’re told that if they could only manage their time better, they’d be able to do it all, and happily.
They’re told that as strong, smart, hard-working people with plenty to be grateful for, they should just be able to cope.
What I want them to know, is this:
It makes sense that you feel this way.
And you do not have to keep going like this.
If you’re feeling like you can’t keep up this pace, there is nothing weak about you.
You’re tenacious, resilient, and persistent, and I bet time management or sub-optimal routines are not the reason you feel stressed or anxious.
Your gut feeling is right. The escalating tension is telling you something real. The overworking and overextending that got you where you are today, won’t get you where you want to be.
And if you’re curious about what you’d do with a deeper sense of peace and clarity — with confidence rooted in who you are, not how much you do — you’re in the right place.
Therapy can transform your body’s patterns of stress and anxiety so you can finally:
Feel relaxed enough to celebrate your achievements and enjoy deeper connections with those you love.
Better communicate your real human needs — to yourself, and to your partner, friends and family.
Say no when you would have normally said yes, so at the end of each week you’re way less exhausted.
Be less self-critical, more self-compassionate, and feel good about yourself even when you aren’t “doing the most.”
Bring relationships back from the brink as you make more space to be a whole human with valid needs and desires.
