Michael Brustein
Psychologist, Psy.D
High-performing executives often develop beliefs about success, failure, and responsibility that once served them well but now run automatically. Together, we identify these patterns so you can recognize them—and make choices instead of letting them make choices for you.
Defusion, a skill from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), helps you observe thoughts rather than automatically believe them. Instead of letting self-critical thoughts drive your reactions, you learn to respond with greater clarity, flexibility, and confidence under pressure.
We begin with the challenge in front of you—the difficult conversation, the decision you’re avoiding, or the pressure you can’t release. Then we explore the deeper patterns those situations may activate. Understanding that connection is often where lasting change begins.
For some clients, therapy is complemented by formal psychological assessment using tools such as the PAI, Rorschach, or cognitive testing. The goal isn’t simply a report—it’s a clearer understanding that guides more effective therapy and a personalized path forward.

Drew Carr
Psychologist, Ph.D.
You had a good day. Work went well; you exercised; maybe even spent time with people you care about. Then you got home, noticed everything you had not done, opened your phone “for a minute,” and disappeared into comparison, research, or another plan to improve your life. By bedtime, the day no longer felt like enough. I work with thoughtful, driven folks, often ADHD or ADHD-ish, who look capable from the outside but feel restless, scattered, disconnected, or chronically behind. You may be successful and self-aware, yet exhausted from constantly trying to fix yourself.
My approach is practical and collaborative, grounded in contextual behavioral science. We look beneath procrastination, distraction, burnout, and indecision to understand how these patterns developed and what keeps them going. Therapy is not another performance test. It is a place to rebuild self-trust and act from what matters—not shame, fear, or proving.
I do not offer a final formula for what your life should be. I can help you slow the machinery down, recognize the rules that have been running you, and take the next honest step without abandoning yourself. If you have built a life that should feel meaningful but doesn't feel like home, contact me to see whether we're a good fit.

Full Circle Mental Health LLC
Registered Social Worker, MSW, LISW
Career stress, chronic burnout, and professional misalignment can bleed into every single area of your life, leaving you feeling exhausted, stuck, and deeply disconnected from your purpose. Whether you are navigating a major professional pivot, dealing with toxic workplace dynamics, or experiencing intense imposter syndrome, I provide a tailored, virtual space across Ohio to help you untangle your professional identity from your human worth.
At Full Circle Mental Health LLC, I look at career counseling through an integrative, systemic lens. Work doesn’t happen in a vacuum; your professional stressors are often deeply intertwined with boundary issues, family expectations, or systemic pressures. Grounded in a strengths-based, action-oriented framework, we will draw from a diverse toolkit to help you find clarity and relief.
You do not have to navigate professional crossroads or the heavy exhaustion of burnout in isolation. Together, we will look at your whole picture, honor your resilience, and design a personalized, virtual roadmap that helps you reclaim your time, realign your goals, and step confidently into the next chapter of your career.
