Sports Performance Therapists in Buda, TX

Are you tired of having a complicated relationship with food, your body, and exercise? Are you feeling suffocated by relentless thoughts that just won't quiet down? Or perhaps past traumas are casting a shadow on your relationship with yourself or others? Whether you're navigating eating disorders, trauma, anxiety, body image challenges, or seeking support as an athlete managing sports performance, excessive exercise or self-esteem, you're not alone. I help folks obtain a healthier self-image, find peace and acceptance with their body and mind, and help them break free from unhealthy coping patterns to live a more fulfilling life.

I help you to change habits, feelings and thoughts that aren't supporting you right now, using the power of your subconscious mind. My clients usually come to me when something is getting in the way of their feeling good or doing well. It could be to stop smoking or another 'bad' habit, a weight issue, under-performance in sports or school, stress or frustration at work or at home, relationship challenges from the past or in the present, or simply stop doing what isn't working and start doing what is, making it easy and automatic within the mind.

Are you an athlete constantly worried about your sport performance? Have you recently been injured and find your mood has taken a nose dive as you wait for your body to heal, afraid you will not return to the same level of fitness as before? Are body image issues or your relationship to food having a negative impact on your sport? Or maybe you are at the end of your sport career, struggling to let it go and confused about your identity outside of your sport. Have you turned to substances to cope? Is your team less cohesive and more conflicted, losing focus and competing more with each other than against your actual opponents?

I help people get results they weren’t seeing from traditional therapy. As a High-Performance Coach, I work with leaders, athletes, creators and truth seekers who are desiring mastery in their craft and personhood. This is for individuals who want to experience their optimal level of energy, a deep inner-knowing of confident peace and enjoyment as they pursue their passion and purpose. I maintain a full-time private practice in Austin specializing in coaching clients to conquer their minds. Clients experience separation from their thoughts and emotions, gain mental fortitude and bodily awareness necessary for lasting change.

You're probably reading this because you're considering counseling. I think that's a great first step. No matter who you choose, I hope you meet with someone. Here's a litte about me; I hope this makes your job of selecting someone a little easier.

Pain can lead to the most profound feelings of isolation and hopelessness. I have experience working with individuals, families, and couples, helping people during the most vulnerable times in their lives and have seen first hand how unresolved and damaged relationships have negatively impacted people and caused pain. One of people's biggest regrets at end-of-life are the relationships they have neglected. One of my greatest passions is working with individuals and families to address hurts and impasses: being both witness and participant.

Along the road, we all developed temporary tools to solve the problems in our lives. Unfortunately, we often forgot to stop using those tools, and they became "permanent." In the end, using the wrong tool to solve a problem does not make one's life better, only worse. In therapy, I work with adolescents and adults to re-tool and get more of what they want out of life. Let's get started!

No one else can know how we perceive, we are the best experts on ourselves - Carl Rogers. My view is that you are the only expert on your life; your story is unique and deserves to be heard. I remain committed to understanding the expressions of who you are and who you want to be in supporting you toward your own personal growth and fulfillment. I envision my role as a collaborator with you in supporting your further understanding of self.

If you're considering therapy, it's likely that you're facing challenges or difficulties that are impacting your well-being and quality of life. It takes courage to acknowledge these struggles and seek help, and I want you to know that I understand how difficult this can be. I want to help my clients develop meaningful insight that will contribute to better self-awareness and personal growth. I want to help couples strengthen their relationship through better support and communication. I am a true believer in relationships. Healthy relationships will lead to emotional strength, which is ultimately my goal for all my clients.

I center our sessions around you and what truly matters in your life. Together, we'll explore the various factors influencing your well-being, including your relationships, environment, physical health, and thoughts. By understanding how these pieces fit together, we can uncover valuable insights into what's working well and what might need attention. This holistic approach allows us to probe into your concerns from multiple angles, empowering you to make meaningful changes in your life.

Everyone deserves a life they can enjoy. Together, we can address the past and present to create a treatment plan that is tailored to your specific needs. When circumstances become challenging, and as purpose and meaning lose their luster, having a reliable support system can make all the difference. With a background in assisting youth (ages 6-18), families, couples, and adults, I promise to provide quality care that is intentional and transformational.

The willingness to start mental health counseling is a courageous step towards creating positive change in your life. I create a warm, trusting, and collaborative atmosphere, where you can express yourself without worry of judgment. With me, you can say things and take them back, or say things that don’t make sense. You are the expert of your life, and as your therapist, I will be here with a sense of curiosity and support.
