Therapy for entrepreneurs

For entrepreneurs, business owners, and executives who are performing at a high level professionally — and paying for it personally.

You started a business because you love what you do. Now, it feels like it’s the one running you.

You built something. Revenue, reputation, and maybe even a team that depends on you. From the outside, it's working. From the inside, something is quietly off — and it's been off for a while.

Maybe it's showing up as irritability you can't shake. Conflict at home that feels unresolvable. A relationship that's been on the back burner so long you're not sure what's actually left. Or just a persistent low-grade awareness that the cost of building this thing has been higher than you planned — and not just financially.

The pressure doesn't stop at the office door. It follows you home, sits at the dinner table, and shows up in how you talk to your partner when you're depleted. And the higher you climb, the less anyone around you expects you to struggle — which means you carry it alone.

You're not falling apart. You're high-functioning and you'll stay that way. But functioning isn't the same as thriving, and you know the difference.

And it’s not just you who’s feeling it. The people closest to you are too. Your partner is getting your worst hours. Your kids get what’s left after the business takes everything else. The relationship that should be your foundation has quietly become another thing you’re managing — and you’re running out of bandwidth to keep all of it together.

You’re ready to regain a sense of energy and confidence in your work and to get back to creating a business that supports your life (not the other way around). Audrey Schoen, LMFT offers therapy for entrepreneurs at her Roseville practice and online throughout California and Texas. As a business owner herself, she gets the unique challenges of entrepreneurship and brings real experience to the work, not just theory.

You’re ready to:

  • Stop letting relationship stress bleed into your leadership and decision-making

  • Address the patterns that keep creating conflict — at home and with the people around you

  • Work through the anxiety, reactivity, or emotional shutdown that's affecting your closest relationships

  • Build the kind of self-awareness that makes you more effective everywhere — not just at work

  • Actually deal with the thing you've been managing around for years

How it works

Doing it “all” doesn’t mean having to do it alone.

It also doesn’t mean having to do it all right now.

This isn't therapy that meanders. Working with entrepreneurs and executives means respecting that your time has real value — so we move with intention from the start. We'll identify the specific patterns costing you the most, whether that's reactivity, conflict cycles, emotional shutdown, or the anxiety that hums underneath everything, and work to change them at the source rather than managing symptoms indefinitely.

The approaches I use — Relational Life Therapy, Brainspotting, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy — are chosen specifically because they work fast and go deep. They access what traditional talk therapy often can't reach, and they produce real movement in weeks rather than years. You'll get direct feedback on what I'm seeing, tools you can actually use between sessions, and a process that respects both your intelligence and your capacity for change.

The work is personal — it's about the relationships, the history, the patterns that predate the business. But the payoff is professional too. When you stop hemorrhaging energy into unresolved conflict and start showing up differently at home, it changes how you lead, how you decide, and how you perform under pressure. Therapy for entrepreneurs and executives isn't a luxury or a last resort. For the clients I work with, it's one of the highest-leverage investments they make — in themselves, in their relationships, and in what they're building.

Real change, accelerated.

If your schedule doesn’t allow for traditional weekly sessions — or if you’re ready to move faster than weekly therapy allows — I also offer multi-day intensives designed specifically for entrepreneurs and executives who want significant change without an open-ended commitment. Many of my entrepreneur clients find this format fits both their schedule and their results-oriented approach to everything else in their life. Click here to learn more.

You've managed this long enough.

There's a difference between coping well and actually changing — and you already know which one you've been doing.
