Are you an athlete or coach struggling with confidence, performance pressure, injury, burnout, identity outside of sport, or the transition to the next level? As a former D1 collegiate and professional athlete & coach, I help athletes and high performers navigate the mental side of sport and life. I provide a safe, empathetic space for athletes, coaches, and their families to work through challenges.
During our time together, you will gain self-awareness, process through negative emotions and experiences, gain interpersonal skills, and work through other issues athletes and coaches face in sport and within their personal lives. Concerns I work with: anxiety, confidence issues, unhealthy relationship with food/body, trauma, transition, neurodivergence.
Asking for help can be tough. It doesn't have to be at First Contact Athletic Counseling PLLC. From the elite hs athletes I work with to the pros, everyone just wants to be ok. I'll walk beside you in this journey to thrive in life and in sport! Reach out for a free consultation today! Serving Texas clients via teletherapy. Supervised by Angela Bulls LPC-S.

I often use Gestalt and Existential Therapies in my practice. During the first couple of sessions, we'll discuss what brought you into session and build rapport. Therapy works best when I get a good idea of who you are, the solutions you've tried, and what feels like in your life is missing. During treatment, I'll provide skills to help you reconnect with your authentic self and purpose.
