Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
Many of the adults I work with hold high‑responsibility roles in demanding, high‑pressure environments where expectations are constant and the room to be human feels very small. I also work with new graduates and early‑career adults who are carrying significant pressure at the start of their careers and are afraid of “getting it wrong.” You may look competent and successful on the outside while privately feeling tense, exhausted, or unsure how much longer you can keep going this way.
Career strain is rarely just about the job. It can touch your sense of self, family expectations, money, health, and long‑standing patterns like perfectionism, over‑functioning, or people‑pleasing. You may be wondering whether you chose the right path, feeling stuck in a difficult workplace, or afraid that changing directions would mean wasting everything you have invested.
In our work, we make room for the full complexity of your situation and the part of you that wants a life that feels more like your own. Our work focuses on helping you listen to yourself more clearly, understand what your nervous system is trying to tell you, and consider options that feel more aligned and sustainable over time.
