Jed Jacobson
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
As a lifelong competitive soccer player, I have navigated the emotional landscape of the "athlete" identity. Having expectations from inside and outside about athletic performance can be a joy as well as a burden. When things aren't feeling right, we can dig deep together.

Jason Powell
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CST
Behind the discipline, pressure, and public image, athletes are still human - navigating relationships, identity, and the emotional cost of constant performance. My work with professional athletes goes beyond sport; it focuses on the relational and psychological demands that come with success, visibility, and private strain. Therapy offers a discreet space to process the intersections of competition, intimacy, and identity - how performance anxiety, trust issues, or infidelity can quietly affect focus, motivation, and connection at home. Together, we address the emotional load of being depended on, desired, or defined by the game, and build the tools to sustain balance both on and off the field. Sessions are conducted privately through HIPAA-compliant Zoom across twelve licensed states, and in person at 220 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan. For high-profile clients, confidentiality and precision are paramount — the work stays focused, contained, and entirely your own.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
Mental rehearsal is a core tenant of my approach to hypnosis. My motivational and success-oriented outcome hypnotic programming uses a lot of future goals visualized along with elevated emotions to mentally/emotionally rehearse the desired outcome. The subconscious responds to feelings and images very strongly and this is why so many are able to manifest what they desire, it is through mastery of this hypnotic method. We may rely on pineal gland breathing to change our chemical makeup in minutes from a low-frequency emotion to an elevated state.
