Many of my clients have arrived with similar reservations while facing issues such as depression, anxiety, grief/loss, family dynamics, relationships, life transitions, work conflicts and career exploration. My approach is two-fold, with the first focusing on the interaction between your thoughts, feelings and behaviors. The second is to explore how your environment, family, school or social setting influenced your worldly view and actions.

I like sports, movies, shows, music, food, and all sorts of things.
Every counselor has a different approach, personality, and feel. Good counseling usually means there is a good fit between you and your therapist. So, it’s important that you feel comfortable talking to me. I try to create a connection where you feel accepted, understood, and supported. Once we’re comfortable together, talking about complicated things (anger, depression, anxiety, relationships) becomes a lot easier. Some people may feel comfortable right away. Some take time to get there. I hope to talk about what’s important to you and hopefully do something about it.

Welcome! Most of my clients express feeling heard & hopeful after our first session. I believe a strong client-therapist connection is crucial in therapy. Finding the right therapist can be challenging and my goal is to make that process as comfortable as possible. It is natural to feel overwhelmed by life at times.

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.
