Brent Beam, PhD
As a psychologist and executive coach, I’m personable, straightforward and committed to making our time meaningful and productive.
With a deep background in men’s mental health and 20 years of clinical experience, I understand the strong sense of ambition and responsibility that men carry. I know that it’s hard to downshift and be present with others when you are focused on tasks or professional pursuits.
My passion is helping men from all walks of life through emotional hardships. My approach works especially well for high-achieving men, providing momentum to stay centered in both the professional and personal aspects of your life.
I regularly work with top performers in healthcare, law, tech, finance, education, and a variety of other fields. While my clients excel in many areas of their lives, they also benefit from a combination of support and challenge in others. Many need help decelerating from a frenetic pace of life, communicating more effectively in relationships, and reorienting to their purpose and core values.
Our work together can help you become a more accessible, resilient, and effective man in the relationships that matter most
