Austin Johnson, Ph.D., a seasoned clinical psychologist, is leading a nationwide expansion of his coaching practice, transforming the landscape of corporate well-being. Through his brainchild, Executive Counseling, Johnson blends psychological expertise with insights from cultural anthropology to redefine how people approach leadership and work-life stability.
Johnson has helped clients from multi-million dollar companies, entrepreneurs, small businesses, and Fortune 500 companies. “The beauty of online coaching is that it allows me to connect with clients no matter where they are,” Johnson explains. “I’m excited to bring my approach to executives in every corner of the nation.”
A Refreshing Approach to Executive Coaching
Traditional management consulting firms have long dominated the corporate industry, but Johnson’s approach stands out. “I focus on helping my clients enjoy their work more,” he explains. “Unlike a business coach whose job is to help you make more money, my job is to help you find fulfillment and stability in your professional life.“
This philosophy is rooted in Johnson’s interdisciplinary background, which allows him to approach coaching and consulting from a fresh perspective. By focusing on work-life stability and bridging empathy gaps, he helps his clients navigate leadership better.
Johnson’s clients have experienced transformative growth both personally and professionally. Eugene T., a client, credits Johnson with helping to identify and embrace fresh prospects for growth and leadership.
“The fact that I can access his guidance from anywhere has been a game-changer for me and my business,” says Eugene T. “Dr. Johnson has helped me recognize growth and leadership opportunities that I didn’t even realize existed. He’s helped me improve my ability to communicate my value and to pursue projects that have led to monetization and recognition as a thought leader.”
Addressing the Cultural Underpinnings of Workplace Issues
One key factor that sets Johnson apart is his focus on addressing the cultural roots of workplace issues, particularly burnout. With burnout affecting C-suite executives at a higher rate than middle management or front-line employees, Johnson emphasizes improving job satisfaction by providing high-level support for teams and peer-level support for leaders.
To accomplish these goals, Johnson applies psychological principles, cultural anthropology concepts, and existential psychotherapy to help clients and readers rethink old paradigms. He shares these freely through his newsletter. “By making these resources available online, I’m able to reach a wider audience and help more people than ever before,” Johnson says.
Johnson also highlights the importance of modulating energy between work and personal life in creative yet practical ways. In a recent collaboration with author and men’s fashion expert Jeff Lack, the two explored ways that something as simple as dressing more intentionally to the occasion at hand, be it work or home, can help achieve a greater balance in the long run.
Lack and Johnson agreed that dressing for the occasion will make people feel more mentally connected. “Your work will suffer if you are still in your PJs trying to work at midday or don’t change when you get home or for family or meal time. Clean, fresh, appropriate clothing will set you in the scene, even if adjusting out of your head takes some time,” Lack explains.
The Future of Executive Coaching
The potential for a shift in the executive coaching industry is imminent. “Austin Johnson’s approach is unique,” says an anonymous industry expert. “While it remains to be seen how his methods will translate on a larger scale, there’s no denying that he’s tapping into a growing desire for more empathetic coaching practices.“
Reflecting on his mission, he shares, “If I can help people find joy and meaning in their work, I know I’m making a difference. Expanding my online coaching services makes me one step closer to achieving that goal.”
Johnson is poised to make an even greater impact by expanding his online coaching services. As more executives experience the power of his holistic, culturally-informed approach, people will likely see a positive difference in how they think about leadership and success.

The Texas Tech football team landed its first commitment out of the transfer portal on Sunday.
Kansas State transfer linebacker Austin Romaine announced his commitment on social media. A second-team all-Big 12 selection this season, Romaine joins Texas Tech with one year of eligibility plus a redshirt year available.
The 6-foot-2, 245-pound linebacker has been a fixture in the middle of the Kansas State defense since his true freshman season of 2023 — when he earned five starts and was named Big 12 defensive freshman of the year, an award he shared with his new teammate Ben Roberts. He started all 12 games in 2024 and had 66 tackles, six quarterback hurries, an interception and a fumble recovery in 2025.
What Kansas State transfer Austin Romaine brings to Texas Tech football
Romaine will likely be seen as Jacob Rodriguez’s replacement as the other starting linebacker next to Roberts next season. It would also indicate John Curry will remain at the STAR (the hybrid linebacker-safety position) in which he excelled this season.
For his career, Romaine has three forced fumbles (all in 2024) and had his first career fumble recovery and interception in 2025.

Investigators say everyone involved resided in the house and that this was an isolated incident.

The victims were not identified.
The motive behind the shooting has not been commented on.
