You've built a high-performance life. Now let's make sure it doesn't cost you everything else.
I work with athletes, executives, and high achievers who are performing at the top and quietly struggling beneath it.
Therapy and performance coaching with Aaron Petrie, LPC-MHSP. Nashville-based. Virtual sessions across Tennessee and Texas.
High performance comes with a cost most people don't talk about.
The pressure never fully turns off. The wins don't feel like enough. And the identity you've built around achievement can start to feel like a cage. I help athletes, executives, and performers who are ready to stop white-knuckling through and start doing the deeper work that makes sustained performance possible. Not just managing symptoms. Understanding what's actually driving them. This isn't generic therapy. It's precise, challenging work for people who are used to high expectations, including from themselves.

Aaron Petrie LPC-MHSP
Aaron Petrie LPC-MHSP is a licensed therapist and coach who specializes in the psychology of high performance. As an active athlete himself, he understands what it means to compete, push through pressure, and show up when it matters. He brings that understanding into every session.
What we work on together
Performance anxiety and the fear of falling short. Burnout that hits when the drive finally runs dry. Identity loss after injury, transition, or a career plateau. The relentless pressure to perform in competition, at work, at home. Learning how to be a person, not just a performer.
Most people wait too long to do this work. You don't have to.
Something can feel off even when everything looks right. The pressure that never lifts. The emptiness after a win. The anxiety you can't quite name. If that's where you are, this is the work. If you're ready, let's talk.
