Ready to Stop Overthinking and Operate with Clarity and Confidence?

I’m Dr. Amy Strickman, and I help high-achieving professionals and leaders just like you — people who have everything it takes to think clearly, act confidently, and feel in control again, but simply need the right support and strategy to get there.

I help my clients reclaim clarity, confidence, and inner control by equipping them with practical, evidence-based tools that improve how they think, lead, and move through their day-to-day life.

Many of today’s approaches to anxiety, burnout, and performance feel overly clinical, generic, or drawn out, leaving clients feeling like they’re not making real progress — or like they’re being squeezed into a “one-size-fits-all” plan that doesn’t match the complexity of their life.

I don’t work that way.

I know your circumstances, responsibilities, and pressures are unique. So every step we take is tailored to you, grounded in clarity, and always aligned with the outcome you’re working toward.

First, we identify what’s actually driving your overwhelm, indecision, or high-functioning survival mode — the mental patterns, habits, and pressures that keep you stuck.
Then, we build the tools and strategies you personally need to think more clearly, make confident decisions, and lead yourself and your life with calm authority.

Through our work together, you’ll walk away with the skills, mindset, and inner steadiness you need to operate at a high level — without burning out or losing yourself in the process.

My mission

I’ve spent my entire adult life in high-pressure environments — first as a Naval Officer, then as a Clinical Psychologist, and now as a Peak Performance Coach. In every chapter of my career, I kept seeing the same pattern: incredibly capable, hardworking people quietly struggling under the weight of expectations, overwhelmed by decisions, and pushing through stress long after their mind and body were asking them to slow down.

Even among the highest performers, the pressure to hold everything together can be crushing.

I saw what happens when smart, talented professionals carry more than they talk about — the overthinking, the mental overload, the constant self-pressure, the fear of dropping the ball, the “I’ll figure it out later” coping that eventually catches up. I watched people lead teams with confidence while feeling lost internally, and I saw how deeply it affected their work, their relationships, their health, and the way they saw themselves.

And I understood it — not just clinically, but personally.

I know what it feels like to be relied on, to show up strong for others, to make decisions under pressure, and to keep going even when life feels heavy. I know what it’s like to have a public image of competence while privately wrestling with uncertainty, fear, or exhaustion. I’ve lived inside environments where composure and performance were non-negotiable, and I’ve witnessed how quickly clarity and confidence can erode when the pressure never stops.

This work matters to me because I believe that high achievers deserve support too — real, meaningful support that helps them think clearly, make confident decisions, and regain control of their inner world.

You don’t need to push harder.
You need space, strategy, and someone who understands the complexity of your life.

Today, I help professionals and leaders strengthen the internal clarity, confidence, and calm that make sustainable success possible. Because when you have the mental tools to navigate pressure with steadiness and intention, everything in your life — your work, your relationships, your energy, your sense of self — changes for the better.

This isn’t just my profession.
It’s my calling.
And I’m honored to do this work.

Here's what I believe...

I believe clarity is the foundation of confidence

 Most people think confidence comes from doing more, achieving more, or pushing harder — but true confidence comes from thinking clearly, knowing what matters, and trusting your own internal compass. My work is about helping you rebuild that clarity so confidence becomes a natural outcome, not something you have to force.

I believe you deserve to feel in control of your mind, not controlled by it

When your thoughts spiral into overthinking or self-pressure, everything feels harder — decisions take longer, confidence fades, and even simple tasks become mentally draining. Regaining control of your inner world changes how you think, how you lead, and how you show up in every part of your life.

I believe inner calm is a form of leadership.

When you can regulate your mind, manage your emotions, and make decisions with presence and control, you lead differently. You communicate differently. You show up differently. Calm isn’t passive — it’s powerful. And teaching people how to access that calm authority is at the heart of everything I do.
