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.

Alberto Gamarra
Psychologist, Ph. D. NCSP
In today's athletic environment, there are so many "issues" for parents and their student-athletes to overcome. A few of the topics that I have worked with in my 20+ years include: parent/coach dynamics, sideline behavior, athlete motivation, performance issues, concussions, goal-setting, team building, injury recovery, and career termination. Each of these areas is approached with care and individuality that they deserve, no 2 student-athletes present in the same way.
