Executive Coaching in Minneapolis

Ready to Stop White-Knuckling Your Way Through Leadership?

At Therapie, we work with a specific type of professional—the ones who make things happen, close the deals, and drive results. You’re crushing it on paper, but behind the scenes? The grind is getting old. That’s exactly why we offer executive coaching for leaders who are tired of just pushing through and ready to actually thrive in Minneapolis’s demanding business landscape.

Sound Familiar?

When you’re carrying a team, a department, or an entire company on your shoulders, the weight starts to show up in ways you didn’t expect. Maybe you’re:

  • Running on caffeine and willpower—powering through back-to-back Zooms while your tank hits empty by 2 PM
  • Playing CEO, therapist, and firefighter all before lunch, then wondering why you can’t focus on the actual strategic work
  • Hearing that annoying voice asking “what makes you qualified for this?” even though your track record speaks for itself
  • Doing everything yourself because explaining it takes longer than just handling it (spoiler: this isn’t sustainable)
  • Snapping at people when you swore you’d be the cool, collected leader who never loses their composure
  • Checking Slack at 10 PM while pretending to watch Netflix, because “disconnecting” feels impossible
  • Spinning your wheels on the same problems, wondering if this is really what success is supposed to feel like

 

Here’s the thing: Most high-achievers in the Twin Cities just accept this chaos as the price of success. But what if it doesn’t have to be?

Executive coaching isn’t about adding more to your plate—it’s about finally getting the support to handle what’s already there. Whether you’re leading a team in North Loop’s tech scene or managing operations from a Bloomington corporate campus, we’ll help you build the skills to lead without losing yourself in the process.

Leading the Pack Is Lonely—Let's Change That

I’m Christian Bumpous, and I run the coaching program here at Therapie. Here’s what makes me different: I’ve been in the trenches with leaders at every level—from startup founders pulling all-nighters to Fortune 100 executives managing billion-dollar decisions. I get the game because I play it too.

I built Therapie from a solo practice into a thriving team right here in Minneapolis, which means I know firsthand what it’s like to grow something from nothing while trying to keep your sanity intact. I understand the unique pressures of building a business in the Minnesota market—managing people, handling growth, navigating our winters—all while my two dogs remind me daily that there’s life outside of work emails.

But here’s what sets our coaching apart: I’m not just another business consultant with a framework to sell. My background in psychotherapy means I can spot the stuff that’s really running the show—those deep patterns and stories you tell yourself that no productivity app is going to fix.

This isn’t surface-level “let’s optimize your calendar” coaching. This is the real work that changes how you show up.

Because let’s be honest—you don’t need another person telling you to delegate more or practice self-care. You need someone who gets why that’s so hard in the first place.

When we work together, we’re going to slow down long enough to figure out what’s actually going on beneath the hustle. We’ll build on what’s working (because you’re obviously doing something right) and tackle the stuff that’s keeping you stuck. No BS, no judgment—just real conversations that lead to real change.

How We Do Executive Coaching at Therapie

Our approach is simple: work smarter, not harder. We’ll dig into the immediate fires that need putting out while also looking at why these fires keep starting in the first place.

During our initial consultation at our Uptown-area office, we’ll figure out what cadence makes sense for you. Most leaders start with more frequent sessions to build momentum, then scale back as things start clicking. Our Minneapolis location is easily accessible whether you’re coming from downtown, Edina, or the northern suburbs—because the last thing you need is a stressful commute to your stress-management session.

What You Can Expect

Like everything at Therapie, we keep it straightforward. We focus on: What’s really happening? Why? Where do you want to be instead? And how exactly do we get you there? No cookie-cutter programs—just leadership coaching tailored to Minneapolis professionals who need real solutions.

Sessions are part strategy, part therapy, part reality check—always aimed at getting you real results you can use immediately. We pull from proven approaches that actually work:

  • In-the-moment coaching that addresses what’s happening right now, not theoretical scenarios
  • Acceptance and Commitment Coaching to help you stop fighting reality and start working with it
  • Emotional intelligence work (because knowing why you’re frustrated is half the battle)
  • Story-busting sessions to rewrite those limiting beliefs about what leaders “should” be
  • Practical behavior change that sticks—from setting boundaries to designing better habits

 

Look, insight is great, but we’re after real change. You’ll leave with better communication skills, actual boundaries that hold, clearer decision-making, and a leadership style that feels authentically yours—not some template you’re trying to force yourself into.

You’re ready to stop just surviving your success and start actually enjoying it. We’re here to make that happen.

The Questions Everyone Asks

Is executive coaching worth the investment?

Fair question. We know coaching isn't cheap, especially when you're already investing everything into your career. Many Minneapolis companies cover it as part of leadership development (definitely worth asking). But even if you're footing the bill, think of it this way: what's it costing you to keep running on empty? Our clients consistently tell us the ROI goes way beyond the financial—better decisions, less burnout, actually enjoying their success. That's worth something.

How long until I see real changes?

We're not trying to keep you in coaching forever. Most clients work with us for three to six months, meeting twice a month. But here's the thing—you won't be waiting months to feel different. Our approach is designed to give you wins from day one. You'll walk out of your first session with something concrete to try. Twin Cities executives who work with us often notice they're responding differently to situations within the first few weeks.

Maybe I need therapy instead?

Honestly? Maybe you do. Or maybe you need both. Or maybe coaching is exactly right. During your free consultation, we'll figure it out together. No pressure, no judgment—just an honest conversation about what's going to help you most. Many Minneapolis professionals find that the combination of both gives them the comprehensive support they need.
