Any number of barriers could impede peak performance. Anxiety, burnout, injury, external pressures, and trauma are but a few of the challenges my clients regularly face. Any one of these factors can lead to feelings of disappointment, dissatisfaction, and/or diminished self-esteem. Sometimes, my clients are unaware of the underlying mechanisms contributing to performance breakdown, distress, or loss of enjoyment in sport/performance or life in general. This can lead to maladaptive behaviors and beliefs that perpetuate a debilitative cycle.
My clients want to rediscover their “why” for participating in their sport, career, or other personal journey. They want to experience more consistency and the ability to manage failure without feeling overwhelmed or utterly defeated. Oftentimes, they want to share in their successes without guilt or fear of judgment.
As a former athlete and coach, I appreciate the effort, sacrifice, and emotional turbulence that come with performing. I know that, at times, separating “what you do” from “who you are” can feel daunting, if not impossible. Let’s work together to overcome these challenges and help you reach your full potential.

My main specialties are working with athlete and military personnel, but I see plenty of non-athlete/military clients as well. I typically work with people experiencing anxiety, stress, relational difficulties, and depression in daily life. I'm also trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy for the treatment of PTSD. I'm happy to chat more about what your needs are and see if I might be a good fit!
