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. Samantha Morris
Psychologist, PsyD
I have experience working with athletes from HS, collegiate, professional, and Olympic levels. I have specific knowledge about the stressors that come with being an athlete and performing at high levels. I work extensively with DI college athletes and am listed on the USOPC Mental Health Directory. Some of my interests and specialties within the field of sports psychology include anxiety (including performance anxiety), mindfulness, injury, return to sport after injury, managing chronic health conditions while being an athlete, and high pressure positions.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Sports are often treated like they’re just about performance—but for many athletes, it becomes your identity, your structure, and the lens through which you’re evaluated. You’re expected to push through, stay disciplined, and perform no matter what’s happening mentally or physically. There’s constant pressure—coaches, teammates, expectations, comparisons—and very little space to actually process what that does to you. When things start to shift—burnout, anxiety, injury, loss of confidence, or stepping away from sport—it can feel like everything underneath it gets shaken too.
At Nour Counseling, we don’t just focus on performance—we look at the full impact. We help you understand how pressure, expectations, and identity are shaping how you show up, both in your sport and outside of it. From there, we actively build strategies that actually hold under pressure—regulation, focus, recovery, and ways to respond to setbacks without spiraling. We also name the culture of sports itself—the normalization of overtraining, the tying of worth to performance, the lack of space for anything outside of winning—so you’re not internalizing something that was never yours to carry. This is about helping you perform with clarity and consistency, while also building a sense of self that isn’t dependent on how you perform that day.

Hypnotherapist, DNH, RTT Practitioner, Hypnotist, Holistic Naturopath Practitioner, Spiritual Counselor
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.
