The Mental Load Is Real

Let’s cut to the chase: professional women are carrying too much. You’re leading teams, raising families, managing endless mental to-do lists—and somewhere in all of that, you’re supposed to stay balanced, focused, and emotionally well. It’s no wonder so many high-achieving women feel like they’re one undone email away from unraveling.

Real Support for High-Achieving Women

At Cognitive Shift Therapy & Consultation, we work with smart, driven women who are tired of holding it all together while feeling like they’re falling apart. Whether you're a physician on the edge of burnout, a lawyer questioning if this is still the life you want, or a mom quietly drowning under the weight of invisible labor, we’re here to help you take the pressure off—without losing your edge.

What Makes Us Different

We offer two distinct paths to support your growth: therapy and career consultation. Our therapy services are grounded in deep psychological insight and neuroscience-backed tools that help you:

Understand what’s fueling your stress and burnout
Rewire the perfectionism and people-pleasing that keep you stuck
Build boundaries, balance, and resilience that last

And if you're navigating a career pivot, work-life misalignment, or just feeling stuck professionally, our consultation services help you find clarity and direction with practical, action-oriented strategies.

Tailored for Your Real Life

We don’t do one-size-fits-all. Everything we offer is designed specifically for high-achieving women navigating the unique pressures of demanding careers, family life, and the mental load in between.

Our services include:

The Inner Shift (individual therapy for women in Ohio)
The Collective Shift (group support & workshops)
The Work-Life Shift (career counseling & consultation for women nationwide)

Practical Tools + Real Talk

We also share regular blog posts filled with real talk, science-backed strategies, and stories that will make you feel a little more human and a little less alone.
