Julia Tehovnik| Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor | Registered Yoga Teacher | 8+ years experience
Creating Balance & Regulation for Sustainable Success in High-Pressure Environments
I'm Julia Tehovnik, I specialize in therapy for ambitious professionals, high achievers, and perfectionists who struggle with anxiety, imposter syndrome, and burnout.
From Competitive Performer to Holistic Therapist
As a former NCAA collegiate athlete and competitive performer, I understand high-pressure environments firsthand.
I know what it's like to build your identity around achievement, to feel the constant weight of expectations, and to struggle when your self-worth becomes tied to performance.
Understanding High-Pressure Environments - Personal Experience Turned Into Professional Expertise
My Master's degree in Sport and Health Psychology wasn't just academic— it was personal. I lived it.
I work with ambitious professionals in high-pressure environments who are exhausted by the same performance-based culture that once defined me.
Clinical Approaches with Proven Effectiveness
I use evidence-based approaches including CBT, ACT, IFS, and yoga-informed psychotherapy to help you regulate your nervous system, build genuine self-esteem, and create a values-aligned life beyond your accomplishments.
More than just talking. Deeper insights, real strategies, noticeable healing. Success without sacrifice.

Perfectionism and quieting imposter syndrome

Anxiety and nervous system regulation
Somatic therapy and body-centered healing
