Hello! I believe mental health and performance are closely connected. Whether you're an athlete preparing for competition, a student facing academic pressure, a professional navigating career demands, or simply someone striving to perform at your best, mental performance matters. I work with individuals looking to strengthen confidence, improve focus, manage stress and anxiety, and develop the mindset needed to thrive under pressure. Performance influences our work, relationships, health, personal growth, and overall well-being. Brief Performance Consultations are also available.
My approach is holistic and collaborative; I integrate evidence-based mental skills training, such as imagery, self-talk, and focus strategies, with broader work around stress, burnout, and identity. As a certified nutrition coach, I also incorporate lifestyle and wellness factors that support both performance and overall well-being.
Therapy is not just about improving performance; it’s about supporting you as a whole person. Whether you’re preparing for a big opportunity, working through a setback, or using the summer to build a stronger foundation for your next season, I’m here to help you feel grounded, prepared, and confident in your path forward.

My goal is to help athletes and performers thrive both in and out of their sport. This may mean supporting recovery and confidence after an injury, learning to balance the demands of sports, school, and social life, preparing for the transition to college or higher levels of competition, or navigating challenges with team culture and coach relationships.
