Performance Psychology 

Whether it be at work, in school, or in sports, working hard at something can often cause high stress, or performance anxiety. This can look like intense nerves or fear when it comes to giving a presentation to your peers, even though you know the information like the back of your hand. You may feel overwhelmed with anxiety during athletic competition, even after years of training, practicing, and competing. Maybe you feel a rush of adrenaline when your supervisor is observing your performance at work. These feelings can sometimes make it feel impossible to succeed, but we are here to help you understand and manage all the pressure and stress that can arise when you’re working toward your goals! Learn evidence-based coping skills and grounding techniques used to relieve and reduce symptoms of performance anxiety.

Support and guidance in the face of a life-changing event or trauma

Life-changing events—such as loss of employment, severe or chronic illness, severe injury, natural disaster, etc.—can sometimes feel catastrophic. While change can be a great thing that helps you learn and grow, it can also make you feel lost, confused, and uncertain. After a life-changing or traumatic event, you may experience changes in your sleep or appetite, feelings of panic and anxiety in situations related to the event, or avoidance of situations related to the event. You may even experience flashbacks to the event or become panicked when recalling certain details. Whether you’re trying to feel like yourself again, or just looking for a little extra support in the wake of a traumatic event, we are here for you.

Sport-related and/or work-related Injury Recovery

In many career fields and just about every sport, the risk of possible injury is considered “part of the deal”. While we often knowingly agree to this risk, sustaining a significant injury tends to be a big surprise. This is especially true in the case of a season-ending or career-ending sport-related injury, or an injury that impacts your ability to earn sufficient income. These injuries can cause feelings of isolation from your team or colleagues, or make you feel like you’re stuck on the outside looking in. You might feel afraid to get back to work or competition, or maybe you feel like you’re “playing it safe” to avoid getting hurt again. It can even feel like you’ve lost a part of your identity when you are unable to participate in your passion. We are happy to support and guide you through all the ups and downs of injury recovery!
