I serve high-stress professions such as the medical, legal, professional/collegiate sports, and entertainment industries.
Are you in a relationship that is not satisfying, conflicted, or on the brink of divorce? Do you react to your spouse in a way you do not understand? Do you ever wonder why your spouse reacts the way they do? Do you want a happier life? Restoration Therapy can help discover these questions and Solution Focused Therapy can help you create the relationship you would like to experience. I believe it is important to have more than a general counselor for your relationship. You are best served by consulting a therapist licensed and trained in the specialized area of relationships.

I see families, couples, children, adolescents, and adults. I offer a safe and empathetic environment where clients can address their difficulties and begin the process of healing. As a family therapist I navigate conversations in a way that catalyzes the strengths, wisdom, and support of the family system. I help my clients work through challenging times, identify aspects of their lives that they would like to change, set personal goals, and work toward desired outcomes.

I am not the mythical King Midas; everything he touched turned to gold. I am not a graffiti artist, trying to paint a happy face on something that sees itself as worthless. I am a custodian, wiping away the debris off of someone of immeasurable value; who does not realize his or her value. My goal is for patients to recognize their incredible worth, and the abundance of personal strengths and tools they have inside themselves. I want each one to be fully human, fully free, fully congruent (what you see is what you get, no pretenses), and fully alive as soon as possible.

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, visualization, 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.
