The lion's share of folks that I get the privilege to help are struggling with perfectionism or social anxiety. The pressure we put on ourselves can give us superpowers in competitive workplaces, but it also cuts the other way making success feel dull and mistakes feel like an illness that overtakes us. The treatment I offer typically allows people to graduate within 3-6 months and is meant to offer permanent lifestyle changes rather than short-term fixes or coping skills. We'll set KPI's for therapy in the first session to prepare for success.

I use a very structured cognitive approach based on the fundamentals of Zen and Stoicism, REBT, which is the precursor to CBT to help. I've added some 21st century evolutionary psychology to the model that's been helping people since the 1950's. With that we'll use logotherapy to create a personal brand of values to aspire to - it's a lot like copywriting.

There are many types of therapists: some give you space to vent or explore but that can take years to sometimes find nothing and some give you coping skills that cover the stress but don't address it. This is a processing-therapy. It's going to give you the opportunity to change the way you see the world to change the way you feel the world, permanently.

The statement "I shouldn't make mistakes" is often at the core of perfectionism, social anxiety, depression, and anything else you might not want to feel. Briefly: you can't win by not losing. This therapy helps to substitute the pressure for what you don't want to happen in favor of goals that are aspirationally on brand for the person you're becoming which leads to motivation and enthusiasm.

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT)
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Logotherapy
Rational Emotive Behavior (REBT)
Solution Focused Brief (SFBT)

REBT helps people to adopt a more Zen/Stoic lifestyle which helps to adapt to anger, anxiety, depression, and many other concerns. Logotherapy helps us to discover meaning in our lives and to move in the direction of our aspirations, or define them in the first place. Solution-focused therapy builds in structure for measuring out goals and outlines life hacks to introduce and maintain success.
