Eichler Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MACP, MSc, CCTS-I
As someone with a background in dance performance, kinesiology, and psychology, I understand firsthand the unique pressures that come with using your body as a core part of your identity, career, and self-expression. Whether you're an athlete, dancer, or performing artist, the demands placed on both your body and mind can be intense—and often overwhelming.
My approach to therapy is rooted in a deep appreciation for the physical and emotional toll of high-performance environments. I work with clients to help them better understand how stress, perfectionism, injury, body image concerns, and performance anxiety show up in their lives—and how these challenges impact both their mental health and their relationship with their bodies.
Drawing from evidence-based modalities like CBT, DBT, trauma-informed therapy, and somatic practices, I offer a holistic, integrative approach that bridges the gap between physical performance and emotional well-being. Through our work together, you'll gain practical tools to manage stress, cultivate resilience, and develop a more compassionate and connected relationship with yourself—both on and off the stage, court, or field.
Whether you're navigating a setback, transitioning in your career, or simply trying to stay grounded in a high-pressure environment, therapy can be a space to pause, reflect, and grow—mentally, emotionally, and physically.
