THERAPY FOR MENTAL WELLNESS AND PERFORMANCE EXCELLENCE
EMPOWERING YOU TO BE YOUR BEST
MENTAL HEALTH
We work with you to create an individualized therapeutic approach to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and PTSD. We listen to your story and your goals and draw upon various treatment approaches such as Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), DBT Skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, as well as somatic approaches and Problem Solving Therapy (PST).
MENTAL PERFORMANCE
Whether you're an elite athlete or training for your first competition or race, it's crucial to have the mental skills that will help you to perform at your very best. We know that sport is a part of your life, and vice versa, and mental wellness is important for both. We'd love to work with you!
WHAT TO EXPECT
It can be difficult to reach out for therapy and support, and we do our best to to ensure that you feel comfortable and at ease at your initial session. We'll ask questions to better understand your history and current challenges, and then collaborate with you to create a treatment plan that matches your goals.
