The Kintsugi Institute Approach
With our unique combination of executive experience and systemic therapy, we provide you and your organization a path to transformational change.
Here’s where we help:
PERSONAL GROWTH:
Self-management, awareness, and compassion are key to not only successful careers, but also life satisfaction. We help individuals show up at their best and have impact every day by helping improve these abilities:
Mental fitness
Self awareness and self regulation
Empathy and compassion
Emotional resilience
Effective communication
Conflict resolution
Stress management
Growth mindset
Personal Boundaries
Relationship and connection building
LEADERSHIP EFFECTIVENESS:
7 in 10 employees suggest their managers have the most significant impact on their mental health, second only to their spouse. We empower leaders to develop vital abilities that truly matter in leading their teams:
Mental fitness
Building trust and psychological safety
Self awareness and self regulation
Effective communication - clarity and transparency
Conflict resolution
Acting with empathy, respect, and compassion
Coaching and delivering feedback
TEAM DYSFUNCTION:
We've all been there—the relentless frustration of stagnation, where efforts yield no change. This toxic inertia infects the team, entangling them in unhealthy patterns. We help teams uncover negative patterns and empower them to tackle these issues head-on:
Poor communication - clarity, transparency, frequency
Conflict management - avoidance, resolution, productive dialogue
Toxic interpersonal dynamics
Low trust and respect
Lack of support and appreciation
Resistance to change
Poor connections and relationships
Megan Neese, Head of UX/UI Research, Waymo
“The audacious goals that we're working towards at Waymo make for a very busy and dynamic day-to-day work life. It can be easy to get pulled into the energy and endless work task that our technology and job requires. We, like so many high-paced tech companies, hardly get a moment to pause, breathe, or meditate. Our default emotional state is often reactive, sometimes over reactive. Jared & Stacey gave us the tools to manage our emotional well being as leaders, individuals, and as a team. Our quality, speed, and collaboration have all benefited. Tech jobs are known to be competitive and intense but Jared & Stacey's work provides a path to sustainability and collective resilience that make this tech industry work-life a joy to do and keep doing.”

Transformational Training for Leaders and Managers
Most managers don’t get the necessary training or experience in handling the emotional landscape of leadership. Yet, the impact of ineffective leadership is immeasurable! We help companies ensure the success of their leaders by developing their mental fitness to effectively lead.
In-House Therapists and Coaches
Create a competitive advantage by having one of our therapists embedded in your executive team. We can help your leadership manage the psychological pressure of meeting business objectives in the modern corporate environment. And, we can help them be the leaders your employees want to follow.
When your leadership is at their best, so is your business.
