There is a person behind the performance.
Therapy for the beliefs, expectations, and transitions connected with athletic life.
Let’s TalkATHLETES AND MINDSET
Athletics can be deeply personal.
Training and competition can shape your routines, relationships, and the way you understand yourself. A goal may matter for reasons that reach beyond a result or a time.
You may be thinking about focus, expectations, motivation, or the place athletics has in your life. An injury, a change in goals, or a new responsibility can bring questions about identity and what comes next.
As an open-water marathon swimmer, I know that athletics can carry personal meaning. In therapy, we can explore the person, patterns, and life changes connected with your athletic goals.
BELIEFS AND EXPECTATIONS
What does the goal mean to you?
You may carry ideas about what it means to work hard, succeed, rest, or fall short. Some may support you. Others may feel difficult to live with when circumstances change.
We can explore where those expectations came from and how they affect the choices you make now. The conversation can include the meaning of an athletic goal and the ways you respond when progress looks different from what you expected.
Your experience does not need to be reduced to motivation. We can consider the emotions, relationships, and beliefs around the athletic life.
IDENTITY AND TRANSITIONS
A change in rhythm can bring larger questions.
When training or competition changes, there may be a gap in a routine that has organized much of your life. You might be considering a different goal or wondering how athletics fits alongside family, work, or another transition.
We can talk about what feels lost, what still matters, and the choices you want to understand. Questions about identity and meaning can be part of that work.
Mindfulness, emotional regulation, and practical coping skills can also be part of our conversations, connected to the situations you are facing.
WORKING WITH KERRY
Therapy with a whole person in view.
I am a licensed clinical social worker. Our work focuses on your experience, patterns, and life changes. We can talk about the person behind the athletic goals and what matters in your life.
We can discuss the support you are looking for and whether my practice is an appropriate fit. Your goals for therapy can include the parts of life that happen outside training and competition.
Sessions are by video for adults in Texas and Colorado. Begin with a free 15-minute consultation to talk about the focus and practical details.
