Sports Performance Therapists in Tucson, AZ

As a former professional athlete, I know what it takes to overcome adversity. I incorporate my experience in sports and counseling to help work towards your goals. Together, we set goals for improved mental well-being, healthier relationships, increased self-confidence, and better coping skills. I'm passionate about instilling personal growth, healing from traumas, enhancing self-awareness, and finding life satisfaction. Whether seeking clarity, relief, resilience, communication improvement, or healthier behaviors, I'm committed to helping clients reach their fullest potential and promoting well-being.

I enjoy working with adults and teens to overcome anxiety, frustration, depression, and relationship concerns. It is fairly typical for all of us to struggle at times with setbacks and disappointments. My goal is to help you identify and work on the unhelpful parts of your life so that you can improve, eliminate symptoms, and lead a more fulfilling life. Together we can create an environment that not only nurtures personal responsibility, success, and growth but also fits your personality, interests, skills, and preferences. I have personally witnessed the rapid progress that individuals can make during therapy.

Thanks for your interest in my practice. My clients are often high-achievers, yet struggling to stay afloat in other aspects of their life.

I provide an empathic ear and will also challenge you in ways to help you meet your goals. I help clients gain focus, develop options and increase the motivation needed to make meaningful, sustainable changes.

CLINICAL, SPORT & PERFORMANCE PSYCHOLOGY: Mental Game Coach certified by the International Golf Psychology Association. My practice includes working with athletes, performers, and the like-minded. That "thing" of yours (pre-performance anxiety, choking, feeling like a fraud, self-sabotage, etc.) has created enough problems. Enough already. What would you be doing if that "thing" was not in your way? Imagine making that putt, rocking that assignment, nailing that performance, or enjoying the one you are with.

Your ability to look within is what empowers you to change. I am available to be of service to one seeking help to feel better, choose healthy decisions, and understand the importance of setting healthy boundaries order to move from a place of poor emotional health to good emotional health.

Do you struggle with feeling disconnected from yourself and others? Do you put your needs at the bottom of the to-do list? Do you wonder if life should feel somehow better? Happier? Now more than ever, people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage their relationships, careers and their lives. Pushing away your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long-term issues for your mind and body. We believe it shouldn’t be so hard to live a better life.

Finding contentment in life can sometimes be elusive when we are faced with life challenges. We may feel confused about what to do, or our emotions may be overwhelming us in such a way that we cannot clearly see solutions. Whether you are confronting past experiences or current life challenges, I will work with you to identify goals, process thoughts and feelings, and explore solutions. I work with adults of all ages in my practice and I utilize a combination of cognitive, experiential, somatic, and solution focused interventions. I am also trained in and offer EMDR.

Can you imagine a life where you are more at peace with your feelings, able to make good decisions, and better manage your behavior in difficult situations? What would it be like to no longer feel overwhelmed by stress or defeated by your emotions? When overwhelming emotions take hold, your work or relationships suffer and other areas of your life can deteriorate, keeping you from enjoying the life you know you could have. One of my goals as a therapist is to provide a meaningful connection and comfortable environment, whether you are considering making important changes or looking for support through difficult times.

Do you find your self feeling unmotivated, stuck or depressed in your experiences? Do you desire to change but don't know how? We all have these moments. It would be an honor to provide you the tools to release, revive and love life again.

My time as a guide in the Alaskan Rainforest taught me many truths: the thrill of wilderness air, the sacred language of native poetry and art, and, perhaps most notably, the realization that all life is deeply interwoven. At 4 Tree Therapy, we sustain that each core aspect of a person - their spiritual, mental, physical, and social selves - requires dedicated and meaningful nurturing, and that each of these "trees" uplifts the others - just as the neighboring trees in a forest work together as one.

Lasting change is a process and not an event. Whether you interested in establishing sobriety, addressing relapse, or have been sober for a while and want to work on underlying issues, I welcome you. I believe that most often substance use is a symptom of underlying issues and people are self-medicating. If these issues are not addressed a person will relapse. I specialize in co-occurring disorders including Trauma, Depression, Bi-polar Disorder, and Anxiety. I have over twenty five years of both personal and professional experience in addiction recovery.

Is mind racing and feel that you don't fit in the world, anymore? Are you feeling hopeless and helpless? Conventional, one-size-fits-all therapeutic models lack authenticity, in stark contrast with the uniqueness of individual life.

Accepting NEW Clients! Do you struggle with unexplainable body aches, pains, insomnia, weight gain, anxiety, depression, relational issues, or familial conflicts? If any of these describes you, your body may be reacting and holding on to trauma. Trauma can be acute, chronic or complex and often are developed during our childhood years and many times is unconsciously passed down from our parents. I work with clients to battle their body from both a physical and mental standpoint in regards to their trauma. I specialize in healing trauma by getting to the root cause. In order to heal on the outside you have to heal on the inside.

I have always been fascinated by what it means to be human: the choices we make, the stories we live with, and the beliefs, values and morals we choose to live by. Evaluating or becoming reacquainted with these parts of our human experience are all reasons that we find ourselves in need of a listening ear. I believe that past trauma, depression, anxiety, relational difficulties, loss, chronic pain, and spiritual disconnection all conceal our innermost capabilities for living a healthy, happy, whole life. I am passionate about helping people create strong and meaningful relationships with those they love. No relationship is too bad.

I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. I want to help you achieve whatever solutions and life changes you are looking for and enjoy the process along the way. It does not have to be all bad. There are reasons why you think a certain way, do not have control over emotions or repeat mistakes. Let us get to the bottom of those reasons.
