Kristin Gattens

Hi, I’m Kristin!

I’m a High-Functioning Anxiety Expert committed to helping high achievers conquer the hidden struggles of overwhelm, perfectionism, and self-doubt.

Despite outward success, many of us feel an internal battle of never feeling good enough, leading to chronic pressure and mental exhaustion.

The symptoms? Overthinking. Perfectionism. Procrastination or excessive busyness. Need for reassurance. Nervous habits. Difficulty saying no. Trouble sleeping. Irritability. Fatigue. Difficulty concentrating. Muscle tension. Constant worry about the future. Imposter syndrome. Never feeling satisfied. Difficulty switching off. Chronic guilt. Do I need to continue?

My Mission: I specialize in transforming high-functioning anxiety from a source of worry and insecurity into a foundation of strength and confidence. With integrative psychology and evidence-based strategies, I can help you to:

1. Silence the inner critic and voice of self-doubt

2. Overcome the paralysis of perfectionism

3. Create a life that aligns with your core values

4. Celebrate achievements and cultivate contentment

5. Have more, feel more, and be more

Why Work With Me: I am a master's level therapist with 25 years of experience in counselling psychology and clinical research. Specializing in high-functioning anxiety, I offer a unique perspective on psychological well-being in high-performance environments, blending elements of cognitive behavioural therapy, psychodynamic therapy, narrative therapy, neuroscience, and coaching.

But more importantly, I get you. I have BEEN you. And if I, a former workaholic, overthinker, perfectionist, and relentless self-critic, could learn to find balance and peace without compromising my determination or drive, then I can definitely help you to do the same.
