Tanya Samuelian

Success doesn’t always equal fulfillment. I work with high-achieving professionals and entrepreneurs who are at a crossroads—navigating burnout, identity shifts, leadership pressure, or questions about what’s next. Together, we’ll explore your goals, values, and internal conflicts to help you make aligned, purposeful decisions that support both your career and your emotional well-being.

DL, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PLLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CCTP
I specialize in career counseling for high-achieving individuals who carry intense pressure to perform and feel weighed down by perfectionism, anxiety, and chronic overwork. Many of my clients are successful professionals navigating leadership demands, high expectations, and the difficulty of slowing down without guilt. My work focuses on helping you develop healthier relationships with work, reduce performance-driven anxiety, and create sustainable boundaries that protect both your well-being and your ambition. The goal isn’t to lower your standards—it’s to support long-term success, balance, and momentum without burnout.
