Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel stuck, anxious, or frustrated in your performance or training? Many athletes and performers push themselves hard while ignoring mental or emotional barriers, believing that struggle is “part of the process.” Over time, pressure, self-doubt, or fear of failure can hold you back from your full potential.
These experiences are not weaknesses—they are signals about where support could help you perform and recover more effectively. Together, we can explore your mindset, develop strategies for focus, resilience, and confidence, and help you feel more in control and lighter as you pursue your goals. You care about performance for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.

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.

Miranda Arellano
Registered Psychotherapist, MC, RP, EMDR Certified Therapist, EMDRIA Approved Consultant
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy is increasingly being used in the field of sport psychology to help athletes improve their mental performance. While EMDR is primarily known for its effectiveness in treating trauma-related issues, it can also be adapted to address various challenges athletes face, such as performance anxiety, self-doubt, and past failures.
In sports psychology, EMDR can assist athletes in reprocessing and reducing the emotional impact of negative experiences or limiting beliefs that may hinder their performance. By doing so, it can help athletes develop greater mental resilience, enhance their focus, and overcome mental barriers that may be holding them back in their athletic endeavors. While EMDR is not a universal solution for all sports-related challenges, it can be a valuable tool when tailored to address an athlete's specific psychological needs. Working with a sports psychologist trained in EMDR can be beneficial for those seeking to optimize their mental game in sports.
