Imagine a space where you are fully listened to, a place where you can talk about the things you need to and not be judged for it. Each person struggles sometimes, that is normal. With therapy, those struggles may become smaller and easier. I listen carefully to spot and highlight the places that you are doing well. We work through where you want to go and the best way to get there. You then take these skills that you've learned so that you can solve future struggles that you may encounter.

Lunch hour, weekday afternoon/ evening & Saturday afternoons. Easy online booking! Counseling is time we get to bring attention to what you’re feeling and, given what you’ve experienced already, notice what you're ready to connect with now. My practice is rooted in nurturing secure connection with self and others. I work collaboratively supporting feelings of security, purpose & fulfillment, alongside a titrated, intentional release of anxiety/ fear. I am perpetually intrigued at how things can shift naturally and feel surprisingly easier as the wisdom in our body/ nervous system is effectively included in healing conversation.

Sports Performance Counsellors
How does sports psychology work?
Sports psychology helps athletes identify and overcome challenges, such as perfectionism or a fear of failure, and improve key mental skills, such as confidence or concentration. By applying principles and techniques from psychology, such as goal-setting, visualisation, positive self-talk, and emotion regulation, sports psychologists help athletes improve their performance on the field and their well-being overall.
How long does treatment for a sports-related problem take?
The duration of sports psychology treatment depends on the athlete’s individual challenges, goals, the complexity of the interventions used, and even on the length of the season. A performance anxiety issue may be treated with a short-term treatment, like Cognitive behavioural therapy, while issues such as depression, substance abuse, or severe anxiety may require longer-term treatments.
How effective is treatment for sports performance problems?
Sports psychology has been shown to improve performance and help athletes manage their emotions. Sports psychology can be effective in boosting performance, team dynamics, and injury rehabilitation. Over the past decade, nearly every professional sports team in every major sport has added a sports psychologist to its staff. Many colleges have done the same, and even some high school programs have done the same. Olympic hopefuls may consult with sports psychologists starting in elementary school.
What are the limitations of sports psychology?
Sports psychology may have several limitations. Every athlete is unique and may respond differently to sports psychology treatments. Therapy can help an athlete reach their potential; it can help athletes cope with injury and pain, but it cannot change the physical limitations that may be affecting an athlete’s performance.
