Psychotherapy & Leadership Coaching for Mid-Level Managers

Managing Stress and Emotional Demands

Mid-level managers often face pressure from multiple directions: executives, teams, and deadlines. Drawing on his experience as Program Manager at The Next Networks and Project Manager for the NYC Department of Education, Dr. Matthew Paldy provides confidential psychotherapy and coaching to help leaders navigate stress, regulate emotions, and prevent burnout. By addressing the psychological demands of leadership, he supports managers in maintaining focus, stability, and resilience in high-pressure work environments.

Navigating Team Dynamics and Conflict

Effective leadership requires understanding both organizational structures and human behavior. Through therapeutic sessions, Dr. Paldy helps managers resolve interpersonal conflicts, strengthen communication, and foster collaboration. His experience supervising software development, sales, and data teams at The Next Networks, as well as coordinating large-scale educational initiatives like iLearn NYC, informs his ability to guide leaders through complex team dynamics with insight and empathy.

Personal Growth and Leadership Resilience

Sustainable leadership relies on self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and adaptive coping strategies. Dr. Paldy’s work with organizations such as the Federal Reserve Bank of New York—where he implemented executive coaching frameworks and career-planning software—gives him unique insight into the challenges managers face. Through psychotherapy and leadership coaching, he helps mid-level managers reflect on personal and professional growth, enhance decision-making skills, and build long-term resilience while thriving in their careers.
