UNBECOMING HER

“People may call what happens at midlife “a crisis,” but it’s not. It’s an unraveling—a time when you feel a desperate pull to live the life you want to live, not the one you’re “supposed” to live. The unraveling is a time when you are challenged by the universe to let go of who you think you are supposed to be and to embrace who you are.”

~ Brene Brown

When your body breaks down—or your mind holds you back—it can feel like everything you’ve worked for is slipping away.

You’ve spent years training, performing, pushing through pain, pressure, and high expectations. You know how to show up and keep going, even when it’s hard.
But what happens when your mind or body won’t cooperate anymore?

Maybe you’re injured, sidelined, or stuck in rehab.
Maybe you’re physically fine, but the anxiety before a game makes you feel sick.
Maybe the fear of making a mistake has you hesitating, holding back, second-guessing every move.

And underneath it all is the question:
Who am I if I can’t play at my best? If I’m not the one who wins, leads, or performs under pressure?

Injury and performance anxiety don’t just affect your game—they affect your identity. Your confidence. Your ability to enjoy the sport you once loved.

This is about more than just getting back in the game.

Whether you're a high school athlete, a college competitor, an adult athlete, or navigating life after sport—this work is for anyone feeling stuck, sidelined, or spiraling.

Therapy supports you in:

  • Processing the fear, pressure, or burnout that’s weighing you down

  • Working through performance anxiety, perfectionism, or mental blocks

  • Rebuilding your relationship with your body after injury

  • Processing the grief of injury or lost opportunity

  • Untangling your worth from your stats, your speed, or your success

  • Learning how to regulate your nervous system before, during, and after competition

  • Cultivating a calm, focused mind and learning how to access flow for performance optimization

Because when your body is sending signals—or your mind is running the show—it’s not weakness.
It’s your system asking for support.
