Sports Performance Therapists in Milwaukee, WI
I specialize in working with individuals who are navigating neurodivergence, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, low self-acceptance or self-worth, motherhood, and those healing from childhood trauma or complex family dynamics, which often impact performance in work, school, sports, and relationships.
Clients who seek my care are supported through open communication as we explore boundaries and triggers, traumatic experiences, or the areas of their life that feel less full. Our sessions are free of judgement, evidence-based, and clients are provided the tools and resources to overcome challenges, navigate learning differences, and performance barriers.

I also have a MA in Sports Leadership, giving me a unique perspective on athletics and people that work in team environments.
Are you or your child a current or former athlete that is struggling with athletics taking over your life? Is eating, food, and body image a relationship you haven't mastered and may be causing you to under fuel, sacrificing performance, recovery, and maybe your sanity? Athletes are told to eat certain things, look a certain way, and this can have lasting effects on us. I work with athletes and former athletes to build better relationships with their body, eating, and everything in between. Clients I have often say, "I think about food or eating all day long," or , "I want to love the way my body looks and actually feel confident."

Do you feel lost? Do you want a better life but aren't sure how to get there — or keep hitting the same roadblocks? Maybe you've tried to figure it out on your own and haven't found the thing that helps yet.
Many of my clients come to me tired of doing it alone. That's a strong move, not a weak one — asking for help is where the work starts.
I won't hand you answers. I'll help you discover your own change: what actually works for you, and what you genuinely want. Sometimes what we think we want is just an escape. Together we'll confront the hard things holding you back — ruthless toward growth, never toward yourself.

Therapy is a place for you to name areas of pain, a place to feel without judgment, and a place to reclaim what is yours. Shame is the source of so much of this pain and judgment, convincing you that you are broken. Shame is often so intertwined with sexuality because of the societal silence around the topic. Perhaps sex is painful, perhaps you are more aware of others desires than your own, perhaps you feel empty from running on fumes and enjoyment is the last thing on your mind. Whatever the reason, engaging your sexual health can help overall wellness, and ultimately be the way back into relationship with yourself!

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.
