A psychotherapist in San Diego, CA, I provide evidence brain-based EMDR & Brainspotting treatment to support the mental health of Athletes and the prevention of sports performance problems known as Lost Move Syndrome, referred to in sports as blocks, yips and slumps. LMS presents itself as an athlete suddenly losing the ability to execute a previously mastered skill they once performed with ease. I help my clients release their mental fears & blocks in their nervous system to reach expanded peak performance. I provide a treatment system designed to uniquely support the mental health of athletes using biofeedback technology.
Due to the nature of elite-level sports, a routine physical injury or any significantly upsetting event can develop into a performance problem. The demanding pressures that today’s athletes face provide a breeding ground for emotional trauma as well. By processing these difficult experiences, an athlete’s brain and nervous system can return to top form.
As a former athlete who left the sport due to trauma I understand what it takes to sustain longevity in a sport. As a former Board of Directors of CAMFT, a Brainspotting Practitioner, Certified EMDR Therapist & Approved Consultant for other Psychotherapist, I strive to normalize and help athletes achieve mental well-being in their sport.
