— Anxiety Coaching for High-Performers
1:1 coaching for high-functioning people whose anxiety shows up at work, in decisions, and in the version of themselves they keep trying to be. Direct, evidence-based, no fluff.
Most of the things below sound familiar. Some hit harder than others. That's the signal.

Somewhere along the way, anxiety learned to do something useful for you — keep you alert, keep you sharp, keep you ahead of the risk. It worked. So it stayed. And it kept working long past the point where the cost stopped being worth it.
That's why the usual "calm down" tools only get you so far. You can't talk a protector out of protecting. You have to give it a new job — or build something more trustworthy underneath, so it can finally rest.
The work here is both. The practical regulation that calms the system today. And the deeper work that lets you stop being run by it.
Not perfection. Not "never anxious again." Something quieter, and more real.
First we get honest about what's actually going on.
What your anxiety is, where it learned its job, what it's trying to protect, what triggers it now. Without pathologizing, without shaming, without trying to fix you. Understanding is what makes change possible.
Then we settle the system that's been firing too hard for too long.
Nervous system, sleep, energy, the daily practical work. Evidence-based tools you can actually use — not platitudes. This is where most things shift first, and where the deeper work becomes possible.
Then we build the version of you that doesn't need anxiety to function.
Identity, decisions, the parts of your life that anxiety has quietly been organizing for you. A way of working, leading and living that holds without the constant hum. Not "fixed." Real.
The wrong fit wastes both our time — and in this work, it can also delay the right kind of help.
This is coaching, not therapy or medical care. It works well alongside therapy and is suited to high-functioning people doing real work on themselves. If you're in crisis or have a clinical anxiety disorder, please see a licensed therapist or doctor first.
A few questions so I understand where you are. Under a minute. No pitch.
15 minutes on the phone or video. We see if it's a real fit. No pressure either way.
Regular sessions over six months — paced to what your nervous system can hold.
A clear plan for what comes next — with or without further support.
A complete 1:1 anxiety coaching program — built around the three phases, paced to what your system can hold, and designed to leave you with a way of living that doesn't need anxiety to function.
Therapy diagnoses and treats. Coaching works with people who are functioning and want to change something — patterns, identity, decisions, how they relate to their own mind. There's overlap, but the lane is different. If you have a diagnosed anxiety disorder, therapy is the right primary support. Coaching can sit alongside it — many of my clients work with both.
For high-functioning, work- and identity-related anxiety — yes, often significantly. Not because we "remove" anxiety, but because we change your relationship to it, settle the system that's been over-firing, and build a version of you that doesn't need it as a control function. For clinical anxiety, panic disorder or severe symptoms, this is not the right primary support — see a licensed therapist.
Those are tools. Useful, but limited if used in isolation. The difference here is structure, accountability and depth — a direct coach who knows your situation in detail, stays with you over months, tells you the truth, and works on both the regulation and the deeper work at the same time. That's what 1:1 is for.
Both are possible. In-person available in Vienna; otherwise video. Most clients are remote — it makes no difference to the quality of the work.
Plan on the session itself plus a small daily practice between sessions — usually 15–30 minutes — plus the time to actually let new patterns settle in your life. Less than that and the regulation doesn't compound. Honestly, this is the hardest part.
Sometimes it happens. Understanding what's actually going on can make things noisier before it makes them quieter. We talk about it. We adjust pace. We never push past what your system can hold.
Talk to me on the intro call — we can find something that works.
I'm not the right first step. Please reach out to a licensed therapist or doctor, or your country's crisis line, today. Once you're stabilized and working with professional clinical support, we can talk about whether coaching makes sense alongside it.
A few quick questions, then a free 15-minute call. No pitch, no pressure, no commitment. If it's a fit, we go further. If not, you'll leave with something useful anyway.
