Real Support leads to Real Growth
Therapy for High Performers
Ulf Lidman Executive Counseling
For leaders who don’t want to lose themselves in the process of leading others
Leadership comes with high pressure, fast pace, and the constant expectation to be available. Over time, that weight can take a toll—on your sense of balance, your relationships, and your ability to recharge. You don’t have to carry it all alone.
Ulf Lidman provides one-on-one counseling tailored for executives. With decades of experience, a deep understanding of human behavior, and a grounded, compassionate presence, Ulf helps you regain clarity and take back control. The focus is entirely on you and what works for you.
This isn’t about slowing down. It’s about sustaining your leadership with purpose, clarity, and real results.
You know you’re capable of more. Here, you’ll find the support to make it sustainable.
Focus areas
Leading on Empty
High demands, quick decisions, and constant availability can leave your mind in overdrive.
Sleep issues, mental fatigue, and the inability to truly disconnect—even in your downtime—are signs you’re running on empty.
In counseling, we’ll focus on helping you recover without losing your edge. Because real rest fuels real performance.
Losing Drive, Feeling Numb?
Feeling down, apathetic, or even sad isn’t the same as clinical depression—but it may be a shift worth noticing and taking seriously.
Apathy and emotional numbness can point to the early stages of depression, especially when paired with fatigue, isolation, or a growing sense that nothing you do really matters. These feelings don’t mean you’re weak—they’re signals that something deeper needs attention.
If you’re starting to ask yourself, “Is this just a slump, or am I actually not okay?”—that’s an important moment.
Tackling Executive Loneliness
Leading at a high level can be isolating. When vulnerability feels like weakness, it’s easy to keep everything inside. Over time, that loneliness can turn into anxiety, disconnection, and emotional fatigue—both at work and at home.
This is a space to be real. To be supported without judgment. Because true strength isn’t doing it all alone—it’s knowing when not to.
When the Fuse Gets Short
Irritability. Frustration. Anger. Emotions that used to be rare now flare up fast—and often over the smallest things. Stress from work doesn’t stay at work anymore. Your relationships are being affected.
If the words “anger management” make you think of a bad Hollywood cliché, you’re not alone. This isn’t about learning to suppress your emotions—it’s about finding your own way to deal with them, honestly and effectively.
Still Just Blowing Off Steam?
High performers often turn to alcohol, pills, overtraining—or even work itself—to manage stress. What starts as a way to cope or reward yourself can quietly shift into a habit that’s hard to control.
Gambling, sex, shopping, or other risky behaviors may feel like escapes, but the relief is short-lived—and the need for more grows.
This isn’t about judgment. It’s about recognizing when something’s off, and getting support before it takes a deeper toll.
“Who am I without my job?”
When your role becomes your identity, it’s easy to lose sight of where work ends and you begin. Success, productivity, and achievement start to define your worth—and stepping back, even briefly, can feel unsettling or even dangerous.
You ask yourself questions you’ve never had time to answer: Is this all there is? Do I have a life outside of what I do?
This is more than stress or burnout—it’s an identity crisis. And it’s more common than you think.
