Whether you are an athlete striving for peak performance, a student-athlete balancing school and sport, or a leader navigating a high-stakes environment—the pressure to succeed can often turn into performance anxiety, intense self-criticism, and burnout. You don’t have to push through it, and certainly, not alone.
I’m Dr. Shane, a licensed psychologist specializing in sport psychology, athlete mental health, and high-performer wellness. My goal is simple: to provide a grounded, supportive space where you can build genuine confidence, emotional resilience, and sustainable success without sacrificing your well-being in the process.
I approach treatment from an integrative theory, using CBT, mindfulness, and internal family systems (IFS). I incorporate each client's values and cultural background. I'm seasoned in treating a range of difficulties including, but not limited to sport psychology, depression, anxiety, PTSD, learning disabilities, and grief in adolescents and adults.
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about my work. I know this is a big investment for you and your family. I am always happy to answer any questions that you may have. For further information on my practice, please feel free to visit my website.
