Additional Services for Athletes,
Family Members and Friends
An athlete can have it all. Stamina, endurance, skills, and a work ethic during play and out of play. However you will find that athletes can have physical, and emotional limits. It is important that athletes pre-play, play and after play obtain the support they need from loved ones. If they are close friends or a family member it is important to be involved in watching games and than when retirement sets in, it is even more important to be present and supportive as this is a huge transition and change. Players of all ages need as much support as they can get.
Often times family members and friends struggle with understanding what a player is going through, why there are changes in mood, or behavior, why the person might be getting angry or unable to focus or self regulate. I can help family members and friends through therapeutic services, provide support and guide on how to assist through difficult times. Playing any type of sport can be anxiety producing and traumatic even.
