Therapy for Athletes & Families

Pain that Comes with Being an Athlete

Being an athlete has been difficult. Whether you’re experiencing an injury, fatigue, or heartache, it’s all pain.

Every day, you have to push through the sweat and soreness, and put your mind over matter. Even though you have immense passion for your sport, it has become exhausting.

Beyond the challenges of day-to-day improvement within your sport, you’re impacted by injury, the ache of missing your loved ones, or consistently chasing sponsorships and signing contracts.

Outside of Your Sport

Life marches on whether you’re traveling for your sport or at home between practices and competitions.

Family life doesn’t pause: school, meals, children’s activities, social connections, and even lingering, unhealed traumas.

For those left behind when you’re on the road, the hours stretch long, filled with the loneliness of your absence.

Tangible and Intangible

However, all the time you spend away is what provides for your loved ones.

Provision is essential, but it isn’t everything. The people who depend on you may enjoy financial stability, but it doesn’t erase their emotional needs.

It’s easy to focus on the tangible things in this world and miss the intangible. Human connection is complex and often intangible, but it’s as vital as the tangible rewards of success.

People thrive on shared moments, understanding, and relationships, which can be overlooked in the pursuit of greatness.

Bridging Passion and Connection

As a former professional dancer (I’ll avoid name-dropping the incredible artists I’ve worked with!) and a single mother, I deeply understand the push-and-pull between passion for your sport and time with loved ones to build relationships.

Balancing the demands of a career with the needs of loved ones isn’t easy, but it’s possible.

Together, we can untangle the complexities, identify what truly matters, and create a life where both passion and connection can coexist.

The Path Ahead

It’s about understanding the tangible limits and the intangible possibilities – and finding a path forward that honors both.

I can help guide you to that path. Learn how you can build meaningful relationships with your loved ones while maintaining your drive and skill for your competitive sport.
