Hello there, athlete (and sport parents)! I'm glad you're here. Being an athlete is amazing (most days), but it comes with challenges. Maintaining a high level of performance AND enjoying your sport experience can be tough. Maybe you've lost your confidence, can't shake anxious thoughts, or you're afraid of letting others down. Maybe you're feeling the demands of athlete life. You're probably doing a lot of traveling, training, practicing and competing, sometimes sacrificing a personal life for your sport goals. Challenges with coaches and teammates happen too. Seeking support is such a strong choice. We'll work through it together.
I specialize in counseling and sport psychology for athletes. In our work together, we can focus on mental skills for sport performance or on the life challenges that come with being an athlete. Often it's a bit of both. Former athletes, I'm here to help you navigate life too. Our athletic identity doesn't end, even when our formal sport career is over.
While the sport world is starting to focus more on mental health, I know it can be tough to reach out. You've made the first step! I'm happy to guide you through this process. You can start with a free initial consult where we'll talk a little more and make sure we're a good fit. You can schedule by emailing me or going to sterlingsportmindset.as.me
