Teams that are most successful are cohesive, confident, have good leadership, and work hard.

EMDR for Performance
While EMDR was originally developed to treat trauma, it has widely grown over the past 25 years, and has proven to be successful with various other concerns.
​
EMDR for performance addresses issues such as performance anxiety, self-defeating beliefs, behavioral inhibition, post-traumatic stress, and psychological recovery from injury. It can be particularly helpful for those experiencing the "yips," a slump, coming back from an injury, and/or those who have experienced a traumatic event (pertaining to performance or not).
​
With EMDR, the client reprocesses the event(s) and is able to let go of negative imagery, emotions, and body sensations that are attached to their performance issues. Any mental blocks that are interfering with performance are removed; which allows the client to tap into their strengths and get back to . This leaves the athlete feeling more empowered and confident in achieving their goals.
​
Services are available on-site, via telehealth, or in office. EMDR Intensives for performance are available based on scheduling availability.
​
