Michael Nakhla
Psychiatrist, MD
Athletes face unique mental challenges including performance anxiety, injury recovery, motivation, and the pressure to excel. I apply psychiatric expertise to sports psychology, helping athletes develop mental toughness, visualization skills, and strategies to manage competitive stress. My approach addresses both performance optimization and the mental health challenges that can arise in high-pressure athletic environments.

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.
