Sports Performance Therapists in Seattle, WA

Lee is a sport psychology coach with a profound commitment to enhancing athletes' mental performance and overall well-being. Armed with a Ph.D. in Sport Psychology and Sociology, along with certification as an AASP Mental Performance Consultant, Lee brings a unique blend of academic rigor and practical experience to his role.

As a Certified Consultant of The Association For Applied Sport Psychology, my ideal client is the athlete looking to reduce performance anxiety, improve concentration, learn how to effectively set both short-term and long-term goals, increase/maintain motivation, build self-confidence, recover from injury and/or add more effective pre-training and pre-competition routines. I work with athletes as teens, college aged, and professional athletes. My background and specialization is in soccer, although I do work with many other sports and performance situations including tennis, golf, swimming, volleyball, baseball, and basketball.

I assist athletes and high performers in undoing the stressors, traumas, past pains causing mental illness symptoms like depression, performance anxiety, apathy, insomnia and a performance decline. I use Alpha Imprinting technique to allow for athletes to reset their nervous system from past hurts, pains, injuries, traumas and stressors so they can regain and expand on their peak performance abilities. Alpha Imprinting also desensitizes your nervous system on the sensory or unconscious level from any potential of worst-case scenarios in life and in sports so you can maintain flow "alpha" brain wave state while performing.

We all have a unique story that deserves care and support. It brings me immense joy to use my experience and education to serve each client and their specific needs. As a therapist, I am committed to supporting clients as they learn, heal, and grow. My background includes extensive studies in nutrition, physical health, and mental health. I have experience working with a variety of individuals from industry professionals to adolescents. I am passionate about the importance of mental health as the foundation of a healthy life. Together, we will explore what that may look like for you. ​

I am a biracial and bilingual woman who believes that everyone is capable of growth with the right support system. Because no two people ever have the same experiences, I use a culturally sensitive and integrative approach to therapy. I believe that the past is often alive in the present and am therefore interested in finding out how unresolved issues may keep showing up for my clients. As a professional athlete who has experienced both the empowering and oppressive aspects of sports culture, I have a particular interest in helping women find their voice and learn to trust their instincts.

Welcome to counseling; to be helpful lets regain access to inner wisdom for self advocacy through review of your strength base building practices by use of expressive arts therapy (life has been your stage), explore dreams (Adlerian therapies), explore play& traumas to connect with your inner child/teen or find your inner parent, track sensations with the mind, body and spirit for grounding purposes in our sessions. Welcome and thank you for adding me to your search!

I offer a creative, youth-centered approach to help boys and young men who are impacted by mental and behavioral health concerns. I begin work with each individual by seeking to understand their personality and identities, their unique skills and challenges, the systems and environments they are living in, and the way mental health symptoms are getting in the way of their valued goals. I prioritize building a strong therapeutic relationship as a pathway to help the individual connect more deeply to themselves and those around them.

I have current openings in-person & via telehealth! I work with individuals, couples, and families, and I help clients develop tools and strategies to navigate life's changes and challenges and to thrive in a healthier way. Some clients prefer assignments between sessions, some prefer psycho-education, and others still prefer therapy focused on emotion. I work with clients to determine how to maximize our time together and get the most out of therapy. In turn, clients feel agency over the change they create in their lives. I believe this change best occurs in a safe, trusting environment. Free consultations available upon request!

As a therapist, my counseling approach is integrative and evidenced-based. I have training and experience in a variety of different therapeutic approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, mindfulness-based therapy, solution-focused therapy, client-centered therapy, LGBTQIA counseling, and sports and fitness therapy. This diverse background allows me to integrate the counseling approach best suited for your unique needs.

Sometimes life situations or past experiences create self-doubt, personal insecurities of “not being good enough,” and may even have negatively influenced how you manage life stress, relationships, and even become a barrier to achieving personal or professional goals. I want to work with you to uncover these barriers and rebuild a stronger sense of wellbeing and enhance motivation. Through the integration of Mindfulness concepts and tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, we will investigate thought patterns, challenge negative patterns, remove negative judgment, and build a stronger sense of self, self-worth.

My desire to support others and a lifelong passion for sports are the core reasons why I entered the fields of clinical and sport psychology. I believe in collaborative care - you drive the bus and I am a passenger providing support along the way. I utilize a relational approach, bringing a genuine sense of self in supporting clients openly and authentically. I am practical and integrative, make room for trial and error, and strive to help clients build skills that work for their needs. My goal is to understand your experience, learn your needs, and provide a supportive space for growth and change.

As a licensed psychologist, I specialize in working with youth athletes ages 7-24, coaches, and parents who are deeply committed to enhancing their performance, both in their sport and in life. Together, we work on the athlete's chosen goals, creating the mental fortitude and skills necessary to excel under pressure, overcome obstacles such as injuries, and work cohesively as part of a team. Athletes learn skills such as relaxation, self-talk, imagery, concentration/focus, centering, motivation, and more. I also work with coaches who are interested in integrating mental skills into their coaching strategies.

Immediate availability. I'm open to a broad client base but most often work with college students, pro athletes/entertainers & their family members. I ran the mental health services for UW athletics & am the consulting clinician for the MLB and the NHL. I work best with driven people experiencing a big change. Perhaps, despite your best efforts, things aren’t working out as you’d hoped. Or perhaps you’ve gotten all you wanted and it doesn’t satisfy. Though I often work with athletes I am not a Sports Psych. In fact, I don’t even follow sports! I’m here for the rest of your life and identity.

Many of my clients need help with anxiety, pain, bad habits, relationships, sexuality, fears, and phobias. Issues my clients have and specific treatment areas (see my web site) range from tooth grinding, reducing chronic pain, improving performance in sports, stopping smoking, weight loss, anxiety about medical or dental procedures, sex issues, sleep problems, spiritual conflicts, setting goals and addressing mental "blocks," resolving past issues in life, to improving relationships. I help people learn to relax and how to have personal "tools" to "dial down" stress, pain, and anxiety to become healthy, happy, and centered.

We all have a tendency to put others first, but in doing so, we often neglect the relationship with ourselves. I focus on helping others understand themselves with clarity, so they are better able to make useful choices about their life and relationships. I aim to guide my clients in learning new skills, setting boundaries, find self-determined perspectives for relationships, and accomplishing life goals.

I am available!... Telehealth (video) in WA anywhere! Through various therapies including Cognitive Behavior Therapy, narrative, trauma focused and more, we specialize in uncovering your potential for wholeness. I offer counseling therapy services for individuals, adults and youth.

As athletes, performers, and leaders, your talents and capabilities can take you a long way. To reach the next level, you require mental resilience and skill refinement. Acquire the ability to stay fully focused on the present and master your emotions that may hinder your performance. Instead of looking back a year from now, still battling the same obstacles, let's work together to establish new habits and overcome these barriers, propelling you toward greater success.
