I am dedicated to helping athletes find success in all areas of their lives: sport, academics, work, and relationships with themselves and others. We work together to develop an individualized plan based upon goals we identify together. These plans can be short-term (during the competitive season) or long-term (year-long periodized mental training plans corresponding to physical training plans).
Given mental health factors may also impact performance, I also work with athletes to optimize their mental health. We address a variety of factors that may impact mental health, such as sleep, priority management, and stress management.
Every professional setting I've worked in has been multidisciplinary and team-focused. With athlete permission, I work closely with coaches, team physicians, certified athletic trainers, physical therapists, and dietitians when coordinating care for student-athletes. I have a strong commitment to keeping information secure and confidential, and collaboration will only be done with your permission. There are rare exceptions to this, and those exceptions are discussed at the outset of my work with you.
Because I take confidentiality very seriously, I do not disclose the athletes or teams with whom I work. I also do not post testimonials about my work with others, as I believe it is best to not give information that could identify my clients.
