Sports Performance Therapists in Texas
If you want to be equipped and empowered to not need months to years of therapy I am the therapist for you. As a therapist, my hope is to work with clients to develop understanding of behaviors and implement healthy patterns that allow them to live their lives without needing therapy consistently. I believe that a client gets out of therapy what they put in. My desire is to work with individual adults, parents, and adolescents as they navigate the hardships that life brings within the high-pressure society that we live in today.

Are you feeling overwhelmed and exhausted? Do you need someone who understands the struggles you face as an employee, parent, or performer? As a therapist, my past experiences have been with athletes managing pressure and expectations, but I remain comfortable with people who feel the same pressures in their careers, finances, marriage, and other personal relationships. I want you to know that it can and will get better. You're not alone.

Are you an athlete constantly worried about your sport performance? Have you recently been injured and find your mood has taken a nose dive as you wait for your body to heal, afraid you will not return to the same level of fitness as before? Are body image issues or your relationship to food having a negative impact on your sport? Or maybe you are at the end of your sport career, struggling to let it go and confused about your identity outside of your sport. Have you turned to substances to cope? Is your team less cohesive and more conflicted, losing focus and competing more with each other than against your actual opponents?

It’s easy to forget that when we don’t tend to our mental health, we can feel detached from ourselves, our team, and our loved ones. In the world of athletics, this happens all too often. As a former Division I and professional athlete, as well as a coach at the club and collegiate levels, I provide a safe, empathetic space for athletes, coaches, and their families to work through challenges. Many of my clients seek help with anxiety, confidence issues, unhealthy relationships with food, body image, and trauma—all looking for a way to enjoy life and their sport again. You can too.

Our lives are full of various transitions as we grow. Some transformations may result in distress, some may be positive, all of which impact us and who we are. I believe that our experiences can be problematic when they do not fit our understanding of who and how we show up in the world. Whether you are noticing an unexplainable change, searching for a transition, or experiencing a major life shift, therapy can be a space where that change can play out and be acknowledged with safety. Together we can embrace your authentic experience, make meaning out life fluctuations, and thrive as the most congruent version of you.

Do you feel exhausted always chasing the next milestone, but it never feeling like enough? Do you feel burned out and ready to quit but still wanting to achieve your goals? or maybe a sense of self-doubt with the pressure to always perform at your absolute best? Are your relationships suffering because you prioritize your goals over your loved ones? Do you feel like something is missing or unsure of who you are outside of what you can accomplish?
