Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are an athlete or performer, you know that mindset can impact performance just as much as physical training. You may struggle with performance anxiety, loss of confidence after injury, pressure to succeed, or difficulty staying focused under stress. Even highly skilled athletes can feel mentally blocked at times.
At Selah Counselling, we approach sports psychology with practical, evidence-based strategies that strengthen mental resilience. We focus on performance mindset, emotional regulation, confidence-building, and pressure management in high-demand environments. Together, we work on sharpening focus, recovering from setbacks, and building consistency so your mental game supports your physical ability. The goal is not just peak performance, but sustainable confidence and steadiness both on and off the field.

Caroline Lacelle
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
My treatment approach follows the three phases of trauma treatment; resourcing, reprocessing, and reorienting. Together we will determine the resources you may need to tap into a grounded sense of self through somatic practices and parts work. Deep Brain Reorienting, EMDR, and ART guide reprocessing to shift past experiences into the past so you can reorient and engage fully in the present.

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.
