Listen, life does not have to hurt ALL the time, & it is way too short to STAY unhappy & overwhelmed. You have the power to take back control of your life, job, family, & future. Rome, as great a city as it was in its prime, was not built in a day; it took time & a "plan." Together, we can develop a "plan" to get to the greatness inside you. Success is achievable; you just need the right coach.
Are you ready to live your BEST life? What does that look like for you? We have been through "hell and back," as they say. All that means is that we made it through some of the darkest, most challenging times in our lives. So, we can assure you, as long as you are breathing, there is hope for you, too.
Throughout our lives, we have walked through so many areas: addiction, anxiety, depression, esteem issues, grief and loss, gender identity, infidelity in relationships, parenting, self-doubt, and self-sabotage. It was not easy, but we did the work...one day at a time. So can you. Call or email us today so you can get the support you need to walk through this space, & let's get you to better days.

Dr. Kimberlyann Marsden
Psychologist
I have a passion for working with athletes of all levels. I have a unique perspective because I have experienced sports from many different perspectives: child athlete, collegiate- All American, coach ( from child recreation level to Division 1), parent of athletes, sports psychology researcher and therapist. I take a holistic approach to working with athletes which means I look not only at sport performance but how the athlete is functioning in life- their overall health and well-being. Sessions may include sport specific techniques for performance enhancement, general stress reduction and breathwork techniques, cognitive strategies to enhance mind-set and self-efficacy.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adult athletes, including those competing professionally, internationally, or at other elite levels. My focus is not on coaching your performance, but on supporting you as a human being who also happens to be an athlete. I work with people across all stages of their careers: the early years of building identity and navigating expectations, the intensity and visibility of peak competition, the disruption of injury, and the uncertainty that can come with transition or retirement. I work with athletes who are in the thick of their careers and those who are on the other side of competition, asking, “Who am I now, if I’m not defined by sport?” Even when things look successful from the outside, it can feel isolating to hold so much pressure, expectation, and visibility on your own.
Many athletes I see are navigating relationship strains connected to training, travel, and time away; the expectations and sacrifices that come with elite sport; pressure from coaches, sponsors, media, or social media; life in the public eye with very little true privacy; perfectionism, self-criticism, and the sense that you can never fully relax; family expectations; worries about long-term health or injury; questions of trust; and wondering who you are if you are not always competing, winning, or pushing through. There is often a deeper challenge of finding meaning, identity, and purpose beyond sport.
Confidentiality is central to this work. My office is intentionally private, with no shared waiting room or overlapping sessions, so you can arrive and leave without being seen by other clients. You are not just an athlete or a brand, you are a person navigating a complex life, relationships, health, and big decisions about the future. Our work centers you as a whole human, so you have a stable place to sort through what you are navigating and how you want to move forward.
