it's time to get the results you've been working for.
with peak performance therapy, you can:
Focus on your goals and what you need to do to accomplish them.

Better understand your reactions and mental blocks to peak performance.
Enjoy not only the outcome but also the process of reaching your goals.
to make this happen, we:
focus on collaboration and connection
You’ve already gained expertise in your sport or your field, so we will partner to get you where you want to go. I will help you understand mental blocks that are getting in the way of your success and enjoyment.
use our time to practice skills
in-the-moment
Just like you train your body, you also need to train your mind. Think of our sessions as a mental gym - we will practice various strategies to improve focus, calm nerves, and increase motivation. Potential exercises may include breathing techniques, thought analysis, gratitude, and goal setting.
consider and incorporate context, culture, and systems
Every sport, activity, and workplace has a different culture with expected norms, routines, and interactions. We will consider how they impact your struggles and find ways to leverage them for success.
start with your existing strengths and identify new ones
You have so many strengths that have gotten you this far. We will start with what you do well to determine how your strengths can continue to help get you where you want to go. Part of our work together will also include uncovering more strengths that you didn’t even know you had!

additional areas of expertise:
There are some difficulties I have expertise in that are nested within peak performance therapy.
working through injury
Injuries can be a devastating and unexpected setback. Peak performance therapy can help you develop tools to cope with your injury and help you relate to your body and sport in different ways to set yourself up for a successful recovery.
retirement and sport transitions
Transitioning out of sport (whether forced or chosen) or transitioning into a new competitive environment (like becoming a collegiate athlete) can cause a lot of competing emotions. Peak performance therapy can help you better understand your reactions and navigate these transitions with more ease.
performance anxiety
Feeling anxious before a competition is a normal reaction, but it can sometimes feel like it takes over and stops you from performing as you do in practice. Peak performance therapy can help you use strategies to calm your body and your mind. See my Anxiety Therapy page for more information.
