Top executives in corner suites who are too shy to ask their underlings how to attach a file to an e-mail are finding help in the form of Jennifer Shaheen. Calling herself the Technology Therapist, the Manhattan-based entrepreneur makes house calls, helping CEOs and business owners with everything tech-related, from figuring out what a mouse is to how to use a Palm Pilot.

Ms. Shaheen launched the service a couple of years ago. She created it as a sideline to her computer training business for small and large companies, called E-BusinessCreations, when a senior executive popped his head into one of her group sessions and asked for personal help.

Spreading the therapy through word-of-mouth, Ms. Shaheen has brought on four new clients in the last three months, adding to her list of a dozen patients. Executives who have sought help are running the CMP Group, the American Business Association, and Brenner Resources, which actually recruits chief technology officers for other firms.
