Do you or your child struggle with focus, managing emotions, or self talk? Do you ever wish you could perform your best when it matter most? As a former elite athlete and coach, I can personally relate to these struggles. I truly believe that with the right set of skills, people can take steps to improve not only their athletic or creative performance, but also their overall quality of life. My goal is to help people do exactly that, and help unlock confidence, self awareness, insight, as well as the belief and ability to recognize your truest potential along the way.
I specialize in a unique combination of play therapy and sports & performance psychology. My practice focuses on helping athletes and performers- especially young athletes- build emotional resilience, confidence, and mental skills that support both their everyday life and their performance in sport.
I have a fundamental belief that goodness and resilience exist at some level in most all people. I believe that the therapeutic relationship can provide a space for healing and change through safety, kindness, compassion, humor, and play. If you resonate with what I’ve shared, please feel free to reach out today to schedule a free 15 min phone consult.
