Do you feel stress and anxiety from the sport that you play? Do you feel constant pressure to perform at your best and the results are not showing the way you want? Do you find it hard to relax and to find a sense of calmness while you perform? If you answered yes to those questions or just feel you are not yourself then therapy can be a great solution to getting you back in stride. I like to include a lot of mindfulness and relaxation skills when we work together. I also use EMDR and give you the tools to be able to find your zone and perform at a higher level. I am open to all sports and all levels of athletes.
My counseling style is to hold space and provide a safe place for clients to discuss matters that affect their lives. As well as process their feelings and anxieties using evidence-based treatments and practices, such as Narrative Therapy and Cognitive Behavior Therapy with a Person-Centered lens. Additionally, I am trained in Hypnotherapy.
If this resonates with you, please email me and I will reach back out to you as soon as I can.
