How Does Therapy Help Athletes?
By combining sports psychology knowledge with evidence-based practices, therapy can help you perform at your best—mentally and emotionally. Therapy work focuses on:
Therapeutic Processing: Processing through circumstances that are interfering in emotional health, sport, and relationships.
Cognitive Behavioral Strategies: Reshape thought patterns that impact performance
Goal Setting & Motivation: Build structure and momentum
Injury & Setback Recovery: Stay mentally strong during recovery
Identity & Self-Worth: Thrive beyond your sport
Trauma Processing (including trauma from injury): Utilize trauma informed techniques such as EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) to process through traumatic events.
Whether you're in season or off, recovering or competing, therapy is a powerful tool for growth and performance.
