Hi, I’m Aaron Heller.
I’m a clinical psychologist and neuroscientist, trained at Cornell Medical School. I’m a Professor of Psychology at the University of Miami, where my research focuses on how people respond emotionally to high-stakes events in their lives and how those responses shape mood, motivation, and behavior. I keep a small private practice so I can apply that science directly with clients.
In my practice I work with executives, founders, physicians, attorneys, and other high-performing men. Many are successful by any outside measure but are dealing with something harder to see: sustained pressure, a loss of drive, strain at home, or a major transition. Some have never been in therapy. Others tried it and found it too vague to be useful.
My approach is direct and structured. We get clear on what you want to change, use methods with strong research support, and track whether things are actually improving. Everything is confidential, and scheduling is built around your life.
I see clients in person in South Miami and by secure video anywhere in Florida. I don’t take insurance, but I provide monthly superbills you can submit for out-of-network reimbursement.
