The Professional Pivot

Burnout doesn’t always look like falling apart.

For many tech and high-achieving professionals, it shows up as constant self-doubt, mental exhaustion, pressure to perform, and the quiet belief that your worth is tied to your last project.

From 2015 to 2020, I worked at a major SaaS company in New Haven, Connecticut, as a Lead Sales Training Coordinator. It was a fast-paced, high-pressure environment where deadlines were tight. My colleagues often sounded confident on calls, yet by the end of the day many felt discouraged when no one showed interest in the services.

When a deal fell through, people frequently internalized it—as if it reflected who they were as salespeople rather than the situation itself. Wanting to help, I developed soft-skills training focused on separating work from identity and understanding that a “no” does not mean failure. I implemented multiple sessions on emotional intelligence, motivational interviewing, and mindset. Those experiences helped shape my early identity as a clinician and taught me something crucial: mental health doesn’t stop at the office door—and for many, work is exactly where anxiety and self-doubt collide.

Today, I help working professionals make The Professional Pivot—to stop believing they’re only as good as their last project, reduce burnout-driven anxiety, and build a more sustainable relationship with work. I know what it’s like for self-doubt to creep in and to feel like an exhausted, burned-out professional. I was trying to balance everything—and when I needed help, I sought it out.

Asking for help isn’t easy. I understand that deeply. What I’ve learned is that we can’t manage everything without the right tools. The goal isn’t to work harder—it’s to develop a healthier mindset and learn how to work more effectively.

When you choose me as your therapist, you’re choosing someone who truly understands your story. I’m here to collaborate with you toward a more sustainable, balanced path forward.
