Stop Leading From Anxiety. Become A Calm Founder鈥擡ven When Things Go Wrong.
About me and my therapy practice
Are you a driven service business owner who feels permanently 鈥渙n鈥... and wants calm, clear execution without burning out your health, relationships, or peace?
If this is you, you鈥檙e not alone.
You鈥檝e built something real. People rely on you. Growth is happening (or needs to).
But behind the scenes:
You can鈥檛 fully switch off鈥攅ven on 鈥渞est鈥 days
Rest creates guilt, so you go back to work鈥 and stay stressed.
猸 You鈥檙e more irritable than you want to be.
猸 You鈥檙e less present at home, and not as sharp at work.
猸 Your mind keeps scanning for what could go wrong next.
From the outside you look capable.
Inside it can feel like you鈥檙e leading from pressure, not from choice.
The shift: safety first in the body, then clarity in the mind.
Most founders try to think their way out of stress.
But when your nervous system is stuck in 鈥渙n,鈥 your leadership narrows... you become reactive, impatient, and constantly bracing for impact.
My work helps you create real safety and steadiness in your body first... so your mind can stop looping鈥攁nd you can lead with calm execution again.
Hi, I鈥檓 Alan Bordeville.
My mission is to help driven, growth鈥憄hase service business owners stop leading from anxiety... so they can become calm founders鈥攅ven when things go wrong.
This grew out of a pattern I kept seeing with founders... hustle gets normalised until it starts costing health, relationships, and presence.
The biggest trap? Guilt when resting, which keeps you permanently 鈥渙n.鈥
The good news is you can escape the trap...
Here's how:
Practice description
The Calm Founder Framework
Stage 1: Recognise
"You can't change what you can't see"
This is the audit stage. Together we'll map your specific anxiety patterns 鈥 where they show up, what triggers them, and how they've been quietly running the business
Stage 2: Regulate
"Calm is a skill, not a personality trait"
This is the core work. Not only therapy 鈥 practical tools and shifts that help you respond rather than react. This is where the nervous system patterns start to change.
Stage 3: Lead
"Lead the business 鈥 don't let it lead you"
This is the integration stage. You embed what you've learned into your actual leadership 鈥 with your team, in your decisions, in how you handle things going wrong.
Who this is for
This is for you if you鈥檙e a service business owner... (agency, consultancy, coaching, studio, freelance team) and:
鉁旓笍 You鈥檙e ambitious鈥攂ut the way you鈥檙e operating isn鈥檛 sustainable
鉁旓笍 You feel constant urgency, even when there鈥檚 no immediate fire
鉁旓笍 You want to be calmer, clearer, and more present鈥攁t work and at home
鉁旓笍 You want growth without sacrificing your health or relationships
What clients say
"His supportive, understanding and non judgemental nature provided huge support."
"Alan helped me to find my confidence and self esteem..."
"Alan's relaxed attitude helped sometimes even laugh at the difficult moments..."
"Alan was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend him."
"Alan is exceptional... I couldn't have asked for a better counsellor"
"Alan helped me both develop a much better understanding of myself and implement practical strategies..."
"Alan was able to guide me through my thoughts with the right balance of involvement."
"Alan's sessions have been extremely helpful in guiding me and giving me a sense of peace."
My first session
You'll start feeling calmer within the first few sessions... and build lasting leadership habits over the following months.
