About
Welcome! As a former gymnast, I understand the intense pressure athletes face on and off the field. I help student-athletes work through the mental barriers that impact performance, including anxiety, confidence struggles, perfectionism, fear, and the stress of high expectations. I also use EMDR therapy to resolve performance blocks, heal from injuries, improve focus, and strengthen resilience. I also support individuals, families, and couples seeking meaningful growth and deeper connection. Being an athlete is about more than performance; it’s about the person underneath the uniform. EMDR helps you address the mental and emotional load that often gets overlooked—so you can feel grounded, confident, and in control of your mindset, both in and out of your sport.
