Psychologist, Ed.D., ABPP
In my work as a sports psychology consultant, I help individuals at all levels of sports to perform at their best. Depending on the individual, I might assist them in learning to relax and reduce excess nerves and anxiety. We might focus on improving confidence through developing healthy self talk and eliminating negative "blocking" beliefs. For some clients, the issue might be dealing with injuries coping with retirement. As a sports psychology consultant and mental skills coach, I have worked with children as young a 10 and seniors in their 70's and beyond.From individual sports like tennis and swimming to team sports like basketball and hockey, I help athletes improve in their sport and in their lives both on and off the playing field.

Beth Kurland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When anxiety interferes with performance, it can feel frustrating and discouraging. By learning to work with anxiety rather than fight against it, you can cultivate the confidence and focus needed to stay in flow and perform at your best. Together, we’ll explore what’s happening in your autonomic nervous system and develop practical tools to help you find your optimal zone—where you can accelerate when needed, ease up when it’s time to recover, and consistently access your highest potential.

Boston's extraordinary concentration of universities — including Harvard, MIT, Boston University, and Northeastern — generates strong demand for therapists specializing in academic pressure, young adult transitions, and anxiety. The area is home to world-class mental health institutions including Massachusetts General Hospital and nearby McLean Hospital in Belmont, and many private therapists work in close collaboration with these systems. Boston's large student and young professional population drives high demand for therapists focusing on identity, relationships, and adjustment to major life changes. The city also has a significant immigrant population from Cape Verde, China, Vietnam, and Latin America, with bilingual and culturally informed therapists well represented.
