Therapy for Athletes

Athlete Therapy

You can love your sport and still struggle with it.

For athletes, sports can be so much more than a game. They can provide community, purpose, confidence, identity, and a sense of belonging.

But when so much of your life is tied to your sport, things can get complicated.

An injury. A bad season. A loss. A coaching change. Losing playing time. Burnout. Graduation. Retirement.

Suddenly, you're not just wondering “What's next for my sport?” You're wondering “Who am I without it?”

As a former collegiate athlete, I understand how deeply sport can become part of your identity. I work with athletes who are navigating the mental and emotional side of competition, performance, identity, and transition.

​

You might be here because...

• You're putting a lot of pressure on yourself to perform

• Your confidence has taken a hit

• You're struggling with perfectionism

• You're dealing with an injury or returning from one

• You're experiencing burnout

• You're struggling with motivation

• You're having a hard time separating your worth from your performance

• You're navigating a transition in your athletic career

• You're questioning who you are outside of your sport

• You're struggling with the end of your athletic career

​

What we can work on

Athlete identity
Exploring who you are beyond your sport and building an identity that isn't dependent on performance.

Performance pressure
Working through perfectionism, fear of failure, comparison, and the pressure to perform.

Confidence
Rebuilding trust in yourself when confidence has taken a hit.

Injury & setbacks
Processing the emotional side of injury, disappointment, uncertainty, and recovery.

Burnout
Understanding the difference between being tired and being emotionally drained from something you once loved.

Transitions
Navigating recruiting, college athletics, transferring, graduation, retirement, or any season where your relationship with your sport is changing.

My perspective as a former athlete

I know what it's like for sports to be a huge part of your identity—and what it can feel like when that identity gets shaken.

My own experience with collegiate volleyball, injuries, and transitions is one of the reasons working with athletes is so meaningful to me.

You don't have to choose between being a strong athlete and being a whole person. You get to be both.
