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.

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.

Marina Harris, Bloom Psychology Group
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P, CMPC
As a former Division I gymnast and Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC), I understand sport from both a professional and a personal perspective. I work with youth, college, and professional athletes and high performers (performing artists, executives) across disciplines to address the mental side of performance. I can help high performers overcome mental blocks, build confidence, enhance present-moment focus, and feel more calm under pressure. Whether you're looking to break through a plateau, recover from injury, or simply get out of your own head, I can help you perform at your best and actually enjoy it.
