Zoe Curzi Coaching

Alternative Executive Coaching

Hello, I’m Zoe. I help high-achieving individuals expand their potential, make complex decisions, and heal from past wounds that might be holding them back personally or professionally.

I noticed early in my work that people weren’t always getting the support they needed from therapy— despite going to every readily available mainstream resource. So I set off to find alternative approaches to human transformation. I wanted to know, how does integration of deep wounds actually work? And then-- what skills allow people to thrive far beyond the baseline of wellness?

My training has taken me from theater conservatories to psychology research think tanks to shamanic firesides, and I’ve studied everything from goal-setting fundamentals to somatic processing. I’m honored every day to share the gems of this journey with clients.

I'd love to work with you! Book a free trial session below.

My Core Beliefs:

Any challenge not yet resolved is a challenge not fully understood! No matter how well we think we "understand" our problems, if the struggle continues, we’re usually missing some key insights. I provide tools that lead us straight to those missing pieces.
We can act effectively toward goals without self-blame, willpower, force, or tricking yourself. I provide tools for integrating complex inner demands (consider Chesterton's Fence: https://fs.blog/chestertons-fence/).
Most anxiety, depression, thought loops, or mental blocks can be traced to events from the past. I offer gentle approaches to thoroughly discharge the emotional intensity of those events, and treat yourself with respect.

“Every session far surpasses my expectations in number + depth of insights, even when I think I’ve adjusted my expectations based on the last session.”

--Steven, Tech Consultant

"Regular therapy felt like it gave me better intellectual understandings of challenges I had but no actual progress. Whereas working with Zoe I actually get shifts, and fast. My subjective opinion is that if you've spent money on any other therapies you should try at least 1-3 sessions with Zoe. I suspect you'll wish you'd started sooner."

-Carson, Venture Capitalist
