Katya Nicholas is a career strategist and executive coach known for her rare ability to move fluidly across strategic, emotional, and energetic dimensions in her work. Drawing from a multidisciplinary background—including a decade working alongside C-level leaders, a decade as a professional translator and interpreter, formal coaching training, and years as a portrait photographer—she helps high-functioning professionals make meaningful career pivots without collapsing under pressure or clinging to old roles.

Her linguistic precision allows her to name patterns, emotions, and internal contradictions in ways clients instantly recognize as true—even when they’ve never had language for them before.

Katya’s clients include consultants, founders, senior leaders, and creative professionals navigating moments of identity shift, professional stagnation, or invisible burnout. Her work is rooted in sharp emotional discernment, calm authority, and bold linguistic precision—offering space for truths that most coaching approaches tiptoe around.

She is based in New York and works with clients globally.
