Alicia Townsend
Psychologist, PhD, BCN
Being your best both physically and mentally are crucial for success in sports and other competitive activities. Sport psychology can help you master mental strategies to perform better. Issues such as injury prevention and recovery, fears and anxiety, goal setting and achievement, and more can be addressed with sport psychology. I studied and trained in sport psychology at the University of North Texas, and I can help you improve your physical and mental game.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
To be a sustainable in your efforts to excel, it's important to be able to not only access your drive, but also to actually fully rest on your off-time. Somatic Experiencing can help with both of those things.
And if you have an injury or trauma on the way that starts blocking your ability to do the things you want to do, we can work together to help your body bounce back from the stress of that incident.

Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
Performance can feel inconsistent when pressure, expectations, or overthinking start to interfere. You might notice dips in confidence, difficulty staying focused, or frustration when you’re not performing at your usual level.
Our work focuses on strengthening your mental approach so you can perform more consistently. You’ll learn how to manage pressure, stay present, and respond more effectively during competition and training.
The goal is to help you trust your preparation, stay composed under pressure, and perform in a way that reflects your actual ability.
