When the Game Becomes Mental — We’re Here

We work with athletes experiencing:

✔ Performance anxiety or panic under pressure

✔ Confidence issues after injury, loss, or failure

✔ "Yips" or freezing during practice or games

✔ Identity loss or burnout from overtraining

✔ Fear of disappointing coaches, parents, or teammates

✔ Difficulty enjoying sport after trauma or setbacks

 Services for Athletes & Performers

  • Weekly or biweekly therapy focused on performance anxiety, injury recovery, and sports-related trauma. Sessions are tailored to help you rebuild confidence, manage mental pressure, and reconnect with your motivation and identity as an athlete.

  • A focused, short-term counseling program designed for athletes navigating:

    • Recovery from injury or surgery

    • Loss of identity after time away from sport

    • Difficulty returning to play after trauma or fear-based blocks

    We’ll work on self-trust, body awareness, and reframing your relationship with performance.

  • Brainspotting (BSP) is a cutting-edge, brain-body therapy used to process trauma and unlock peak performance. It’s particularly powerful for athletes who:

    • Freeze under pressure or experience the “yips”

    • Can’t shake a mistake, injury, or humiliating performance

    • Have unexplained physical blocks, fear responses, or pain

    • Struggle with chronic overthinking or pre-game anxiety

    BSP works by accessing the brain’s deeper processing systems through eye position and focused mindfulness. Many athletes report significant breakthroughs - not just mentally, but physically - as tension, fear, and mental blocks begin to release.

    “Where you look affects how you feel” -David Grand, creator of Brainspotting

  • Support for youth athletes (and their parent) who are overwhelmed by pressure, perfectionism, fear of failure, or injury recovery. Helping to build emotional resilience, self-worth, and coping skills - without killing the love for the game.

I Get It — Because I’ve Been There

I'm not just a counselor — I've lived through injury, identity loss, and the kind of performance pressure that steals joy. My mission is to help athletes reconnect with their confidence, rebuild after trauma, and show up fully in their sport and life.
