Therapy for Engineers
A habit of solving problems can be valuable at work and frustrating when your own emotional life does not respond to a clear fix. You may understand a pattern logically without finding it easy to change.

You do not need the perfect explanation. We can begin with what has been difficult and what you would like to understand.
What you may be noticing
- Analyzing feelings without feeling relief
- Work pressure and perfectionism
- Difficulty switching out of problem-solving mode
Your experience may look different. These examples are starting points for a conversation.
How we can work on this
We can bring curiosity to how you think and respond without treating your strengths as the problem. Therapy can make room for uncertainty, emotional awareness, and practical experiments in daily life.
I am Sam Rustum, LCPC. My work is collaborative: we will discuss your priorities, choose a starting point, and check whether our approach is useful to you.
A question you may have
Do I need to be comfortable with emotional language?
No. We can begin with concrete situations and develop a shared understanding of what happens for you.
Talk about your next step.
