One of the occupational hazards for attorneys is that they are especially harsh judges of themselves. Couple this with the high level of negative emotions attorneys encounter throughout the work day, and it is not surprising the high toll this takes on professionals. As a clinical psychologist, I consult regularly via telephone with a limited number of professionals around the country whose concerns run the gamut of issues listed below. Coaching can make a real difference when one is pressured at so many points.
Including but not limited to—

- Workplace Stress
- Interpersonal Relationships
