PSYCHOTHERAPY

Clinical performance psychology focuses on performance in areas that you value. It is my goal to help you improve your performance in your work, sport, or hobby.

My approach is a positive psychology (positive mindset) perspective. As a licensed psychologist, I utilize evidence-based, empirically supported cognitive and behavioral interventions that are effective in clinical and applied sport, performance, exercise, and health psychological practice.

As a licensed psychologist, I diagnose and treat a variety of mental health conditions (e.g., the variety of anxiety and  depression disorders), as appropriate, that may interfere with your goals, pursuits, or everyday living.

As an example, I will help you make progress by:

  • Breaking through barriers
  • Enhancing motivation
  • Improving problem solving
  • Nurturing flow (Being “in the zone”)
  • Building momentum and staying the course with dedication and commitment
  • Preparing and/or recovering from a competition, performance, or an event.

I will teach you skills to maximize your physical fitness or aptitude, and explore mental barriers or mental health conditions that are creating interference.

I will teach you strategies to boost confidence, self-esteem, and self-love; to be your best self and live your best life.

Anything of value requires ongoing consistent effort.

In what areas of life do you perform?
In what areas of life would you like greater satisfaction?
What would you like to achieve?

Performing is doing.
Trying is doing.

Let me help you do better as you know better with new skills and approaches. I can help you wherever is your starting place: getting out of bed every day, starting something new, completing an intricate skill, or continuing to excel. I am here to help you optimize your peak human performance; in what you “need” to do, and in what you “want” to do.

“Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” – Maya Angelou

Let me help you excel. It is important to examine, develop, and be aware of all other domains of life, and how you are managing them. How they interact or stay separate in your life is critical to your performance.

“Stress is life, and the brain and body must constantly adapt in order to respond to various stimuli.” – Hans Seyle

I am accepting new clients, both via telehealth and in-person. I provide telehealth (video sessions) throughout the US, within the PSYPACT states (https://psypact.org/mpage/psypactmap).

My office for in-person appointments is in the city Charleston, SC, within West Ashley.

With specific arrangements specific to goals, I also perform “outcalls” traveling to you for a session in your “field of performance” (e.g., gym, field, studio, court).
