Nicole N Kaufman, High Performance Counseling Greensboro
I specialize in working with entrepreneurs and high-level professionals to improve relationships, eliminate depression/anxiety and reduce overall stress level. My parents had their own business from the time I was 9 years old, so the entrepreneurial mindset is one I am familiar with both as an observer and practitioner. I have been in business for myself for over 15 years, and also worked in a corporate environment for 5 years. My clients learn to design a life so that relationships, work, and life goals balance out. I take a straightforward, no-nonsense approach -- think Tony Robbins or Dr. Phil. The idea is not to keep you in therapy forever, but to quickly take your life to the next level of happiness and success. Clients see a noticeable shift in function, outlook, and mood within 4-6 weeks. This therapy cuts through all the BS and gets results, and is specially tailored with the high-level professionals' needs in mind.
I was a weird kid who read The Seth Material, Nice Girls Do, and was interested in self-improvement and how to achieve success. I always preferred non-fiction books and was keen to understand how people make the choices they do in their lives. On my Facebook business page, there is a video entitled "My Toughest Client Ever," which outlines my journey into counseling. A diagnosis is important, but does not define the client. I wanted to be the kind of counselor that didn't just work to address anxiety or depression, but wanted to actually teach ways of doing, being, and living that made for a more nuanced, enhanced and optimistic outlook on life.
