Drew Carr
Psychologist, Ph.D.
You had a good day. Work went well; you exercised; maybe even spent time with people you care about. Then you got home, noticed everything you had not done, opened your phone “for a minute,” and disappeared into comparison, research, or another plan to improve your life. By bedtime, the day no longer felt like enough. I work with thoughtful, driven folks, often ADHD or ADHD-ish, who look capable from the outside but feel restless, scattered, disconnected, or chronically behind. You may be successful and self-aware, yet exhausted from constantly trying to fix yourself.
My approach is practical and collaborative, grounded in contextual behavioral science. We look beneath procrastination, distraction, burnout, and indecision to understand how these patterns developed and what keeps them going. Therapy is not another performance test. It is a place to rebuild self-trust and act from what matters—not shame, fear, or proving.
I do not offer a final formula for what your life should be. I can help you slow the machinery down, recognize the rules that have been running you, and take the next honest step without abandoning yourself. If you have built a life that should feel meaningful but doesn't feel like home, contact me to see whether we're a good fit.

Paul T. Haefner, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
For more than 30 years I've helped athletes and equestrians turn self-doubt into confidence, fear into courage, distraction into focus, and pressure into performance. Whether you're chasing a competitive goal, stuck in a slump, or rebuilding your nerve after a fall or injury, we'll train the mental side of your sport with the same seriousness you bring to the physical. It's the work Riding Far was built on and it reaches well beyond the arena.

I love working with athletes who are interested in new tools like RTT hypnosis to work through sports performance blocks to increase their sports performance overall, or the emotion code for rebalancing.
