Tell me if this sounds like you...
On the outside, you have it all together.
On the inside, you overthink and feel overwhelmed.
You've mastered showing up, but now you're not sure why that workout doesn't do the trick anymore?
Your inner critic and mental chatter is loud.
You work so hard, but it still feels like never enough.
If you're nodding along, you're in the right place.
IT MIGHT BE TIME TO TRAIN YOUR MIND. THAT'S WHERE I COME IN...
I help athletes and high-performers who struggle with anxiety and perfectionism learn to calm the mental noise, manage stress, and feel more present, so they can show up fully where it matters most.
Hey! I’m Stephanie. With over 15 years of experience as a therapist + a lifelong athlete and anxious human - I get it.
MAYBE YOU'RE HERE BECAUSE...
Your anxiety isn't allowing you to live the life you want. Or your perfectionism causes you to overthink everything and you are tired of wasting time and energy. You're edging on burnout and don't know how to get back to yourself. Whatever it is, I've got you.
THIS IS WHAT OUR WORK TOGETHER CAN DO...
A quieter mind. Real skills to interrupt the thought spirals before they spin out. The confidence to take up space and own your story. Energy that comes from values, not fear. And the understanding that you are going to experience hard things no matter what - now you get to learn HOW to experience it all in a new way.
No judgment. Open space to express it all (free to curse, cry, scream) and we might even laugh a bit. I hope we do. Life is serious enough. So show up fully - I will meet you there.
Bring your full self and I will too
You want someone who gets the driven, high-standards, and athlete mindset wiring. I don't just do this work, I live it as a lifestyle. There will be felt understanding as we form a strong connection.
common language and understanding
Not the therapist who just nods. Not the therapist who is soft spoken either. We will talk real sh*t - and I'll hold you to the work. You know how to train hard, now we train your mind the same.
Compassionate accountability
You've read the books. You've downloaded the apps. You've told yourself to just push through, think positive, grind harder.
It's time to do the REAL work. I've helped hundreds - are you next?
how therapy with me is different
Where you can go
Where you are now
Trust me. I've been where you are and know where you can go...
You know how to set goals. You have experienced successes.
Let me paint the picture of how you can do that here...
