? Rapid Resolution Therapy (RRT) is a form of hypnotherapy that aims to help individuals permanently overcome the ongoing effects that stem from negative experiences. Unlike traditional cognitive therapy, which only targets the cognitive brain, RRT instead addresses the emotional brain and limbic system. The human mind relates and responds to stories. With RRT a new neural pathway is built through visual imagery, storytelling, and metaphors. It's Rapid Therapy with Lasting Results!

Parents can hold shame, self-reproach, frustration, and helplessness over a child’s distress; children fear, disgrace, anger, disquiet. Such dynamics summon my expertise. Mood disturbance, anxiety, panic, and maladjustment manifest as aversion to separation, school refusal, flawed coping mechanisms, pervasive woe. My approach allows vulnerability to speak. Individuals emerge from our process prepared to ably navigate their world by developing and honing effective strategies to ameliorate symptoms. More profoundly, they are empowered to not just push through travail, but to mindfully sit with it long enough to seed proper growth.

Although feeling anxious is a natural response to stress, sometimes it can become so intense it effects your daily life. Often times depression can accompany anxiety becoming debilitating where you can no longer think clearly or enjoy the things you once did. Together we can dig to the root of these feelings, and begin to use tools and strategies to bring your stress levels down and regain control. Along with specializing in anxiety and depression, I also focus on how the two can be detrimental to relationships.

To me, counseling is about management; management of relationships with others, the relationship you have with yourself, management of anxiety and everyday stressors. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I incorporate a variety of treatment modalities including: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Mindfulness and Motivational Interviewing. However, I take an eclectic approach to understanding each individual client by utilizing Adlerian Theory in addition to CBT. I also believe that physical health has strong implications for mental health and it is important to treat both.

I am a neuropsychologist primarily focused on diagnostic testing across the lifespan (birth to 100+). However, I also provide therapy to individuals and families surrounding a wide range of developmental, cognitive, psychiatric and behavioral challenges. My aim in both assessment and treatment is to offer a welcoming environment within which every patient has a safe space to share the narrative of their journey up to the present. This is done in a manner that honors the lens through which each of us sees the world, while also acknowledging the multiple systems with which we must often interface in order to meet our own needs.

Sports Performance Therapists
How does sports psychology work?
Sports psychology helps athletes identify and overcome challenges, such as perfectionism or a fear of failure, and improve key mental skills, such as confidence or concentration. By applying principles and techniques from psychology, such as goal-setting, visualisation, positive self-talk, and emotion regulation, sports psychologists help athletes improve their performance on the field and their well-being overall.
How long does treatment for a sports-related problem take?
The duration of sports psychology treatment depends on the athlete’s individual challenges, goals, the complexity of the interventions used, and even on the length of the season. A performance anxiety issue may be treated with a short-term treatment, like Cognitive behavioural therapy, while issues such as depression, substance abuse, or severe anxiety may require longer-term treatments.
How effective is treatment for sports performance problems?
Sports psychology has been shown to improve performance and help athletes manage their emotions. Sports psychology can be effective in boosting performance, team dynamics, and injury rehabilitation. Over the past decade, nearly every professional sports team in every major sport has added a sports psychologist to its staff. Many colleges have done the same, and even some high school programs have done the same. Olympic hopefuls may consult with sports psychologists starting in elementary school.
What are the limitations of sports psychology?
Sports psychology may have several limitations. Every athlete is unique and may respond differently to sports psychology treatments. Therapy can help an athlete reach their potential; it can help athletes cope with injury and pain, but it cannot change the physical limitations that may be affecting an athlete’s performance.
