Gleyce Almeida-Farrell is a psychotherapist and founder of Kellen Mental Health who specializes in working with high-performing adults navigating anxiety, burnout, depression, and performance-related stress. She provides therapy for executives, entrepreneurs, elite athletes, entertainers, and high-level sales professionals facing the demands of high-pressure, competitive, and highly visible careers.
Gleyce takes a whole-person, integrative approach to therapy, combining psychodynamic and psychoanalytic insight with practical, evidence-based strategies. Her style is direct, collaborative, and results-oriented, helping clients understand the deeper emotional and psychological patterns contributing to anxiety, chronic stress, burnout, self-doubt, and performance pressure.
Her work may include exploring early experiences, relational patterns, attachment, and inner child work to understand how the past continues to shape present-day beliefs, behaviors, relationships, and responses to pressure. She integrates this deeper exploration with cognitive behavioral techniques to create both meaningful insight and practical change.
Gleyce helps clients strengthen emotional regulation, boundaries, confidence, resilience, focus, and a sense of identity beyond achievement. She has a particular interest in working with athletes, performers, executives, and other high-achieving professionals navigating performance anxiety, identity and career transitions, competition, public expectations, and the pressure to consistently perform at a high level.
Success doesn’t protect you from stress, anxiety, or burnout. In fact, many executives, entrepreneurs, athletes, and other high performers experience intense pressure to constantly achieve while quietly struggling with perfectionism, self-doubt, or emotional exhaustion. Gleyce specializes in helping ambitious professionals maintain their performance without sacrificing their mental health or personal well-being.
Her approach goes beyond managing symptoms. Gleyce helps clients understand the deeper emotional patterns that contribute to chronic stress, overwork, imposter syndrome, and burnout while building healthier ways to lead, perform, and make decisions. Therapy creates space to strengthen resilience, improve emotional regulation, and reconnect with a sense of purpose that extends beyond achievement alone.
