Who I Help
Athletes and High-Performers at All Levels
High School & Collegiate Athletes
Whether navigating a challenging coach-athlete relationship, trying to translate practice to competition, or dealing with the pressure to perform, we collaborate to help you move forward.
Professional and Olympic Athletes
Competing at the highest level can bring both highs and lows that not many people understand. We'll work together to optimize your strengths and process the sometimes exhausting thoughts and emotions that come with performing under pressure.
High-Achievers & Perfectionists
You're the person who gets things done, and you're always chasing the next goal ahead. While great successes can come from your efforts, so can burnout and fatigue. By working together, you can fully enjoy your wins and feel energized to continue your growth.
Leaders
You're the one that everyone relies on and has their eyes on. I work with senior managers, coaches, and business owners who are seeking a healing space to process their concerns while still needing to perform.

FAQ
- Do you take insurance? Yes. I am in-network with Georgetown University Student Health Insurance (GUSHI), Optum, and most United Healthcare plans.- What are your fees? $225 per 45-50-minute session. Session packages with discounted rates are available for mental performance sessions. I also provide superbills that you can submit to your insurance provider for possible reimbursement.- I'm not an athlete. Can we still be a good fit? Yes. My specialization in sport and performance psychology offers me a unique perspective on how to support the mental health of high-achieving and performing individuals. Athlete or not. Many non-athletes benefit from working with a therapist who understands the unique needs of someone who has to perform at a high level in the boardroom, courtroom, or even the halls of Congress.- Where are sessions held? I provide telehealth services, meaning we meet via a HIPAA-compliant video conferencing link for all of our sessions. I offer virtual sessions to clients throughout Washington, DC, Virginia, New York, and 40 additional states.- My schedule can vary quite a bit. How are sessions scheduled? That's not a problem at all! I schedule sessions week to week with my clients. Meaning at the end of each session, we look at our calendars and pick a day and time for our next meeting. This allows for flexibility in scheduling while maintaining consistency in our work together.
