Most of the people I work with don’t appear to be struggling. They’re successful, dependable, and keep showing up for everyone else. But beneath the surface, they’re carrying anxiety, stress, emotional exhaustion, or the effects of past experiences that never seem to fully go away. If you’ve been pushing through, overthinking, or feeling disconnected from yourself, therapy can help. Together, we’ll better understand what’s keeping you stuck, strengthen your coping skills, and help you move toward a calmer, more fulfilling life.

It hurts, that look you get or tone of voice from the person you love most. You don’t want to bring up the hard stuff anymore and feel the hurt of more disconnection and misunderstandings. You know you love each other and want to make your relationship and family stronger, but no matter how hard you try, you both feel misunderstood and alone. Sometimes, it feels like going through the motions of daily tasks without fighting is the only connection you can have. But there is another part of both of you that wants more. You just need help understanding yourself and each other differently. Your relationship is too important.

You push your limits in the mountains, but inside it can feel like you're carrying a weight no summit can lift.

Clients who have sports and performance anxiety, existential concerns, or other anxiety-related challenges can expect an exploration of how their lived experience, desire for change, and cognitive approach intersect.
You're capable of more than you're showing up as right now — and you know it. Maybe it's the moment in competition when your body tightens and the shot, the serve, the audition slips. Maybe it's the meeting where the words you rehearsed disappear. Maybe it's a quieter ache: the sense that meaningful work, real connection, or a fuller life is sitting just out of reach.
I help athletes, performers, and professionals get unstuck. My clients tend to be high-functioning people whose anxiety has started costing them — in performance, in relationships, or in the slow erosion of feeling like themselves.

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.
