Athletes, Individuals, Couples & Families · Beverly Hills, CA
Build confidence that is bigger than the outcome.
Therapy for athletes, high achievers, individuals, couples, and families navigating performance pressure, perfectionism, self-worth, identity, relationships, and the psychological demands of achievement.
Some people come to therapy because something is falling apart. Others come because everything looks successful from the outside, while internally they carry pressure, self-doubt, perfectionism, anxiety, relationship struggles, or the sense that who they are has become inseparable from what they accomplish.
My work explores both performance and connection: how we relate to achievement, how we relate to ourselves, and how we relate to the people who matter to us.
Signature Program
The Confident Competitor
Mental Performance & Emotional Wellness for Athletes Ages 13-22
Young athletes are learning to perform while simultaneously learning who they are. Competition can build extraordinary courage, discipline, and resilience - but it can also intensify perfectionism, comparison, fear of failure, external validation, and the belief that worth depends on performance.
The Confident Competitor helps athletes develop the psychological flexibility to perform under pressure, recover from setbacks, build self-belief through action, and develop an identity that is bigger than a score, time, ranking, roster, or result.
Clinical supervision by Dr. Markus Rogan, PsyD, LMFT - Four-Time Olympian & Two-Time Olympic Silver Medalist
Approach
A small practice, by design.
I intentionally maintain a limited caseload so every client - an athlete preparing for a season, an adult whose ambition has quietly turned against them, a couple trying to find their way back to each other, a family under strain - receives the time, presence, and thoughtful attention meaningful change requires.
My work is grounded in attachment science, relational psychology, family systems, and trauma-informed care. The patterns that create pressure, self-doubt, distance, or conflict are not signs that a person or a relationship is beyond repair. They are understandable, identifiable, and, with the right guidance, capable of lasting change.
As both a clinician and researcher, I integrate evidence-informed approaches with a deep interest in the emotional dynamics underneath achievement and connection. My doctoral research explores relational psychology and the factors that foster resilient relationships, under the depth-oriented supervision of Dr. Markus Rogan.
Sessions are warm, direct, and insight-oriented. Rather than staying at the level of the recurring argument or the disappointing result, we explore the emotions, attachment needs, and protective patterns beneath them.
