As a former Division I athlete, 2016 Olympic qualifier, and 2017 World Trials qualifier, I bring a unique understanding of the mental and emotional challenges that come with competing at a high level. Sports counseling at RenewIn-Minds Counseling and Coaching is designed to support athletes as they navigate the demands of their sport and the complexities of life beyond it. I provide a safe, supportive space for athletes to address performance anxiety, build resilience, and manage the pressures of training, competition, and balancing personal and professional goals.

Whether you’re working through injury recovery, exploring your identity beyond athletics, or transitioning to a new stage in your career, I am here to guide you.

Parent Counseling

Parent Counseling focuses on addressing deeper emotional challenges, family dynamics, and mental health issues that impact parenting and family relationships. This service is designed to help parents navigate complex situations such as cultural conflicts, generational trauma, anxiety, and relationship struggles within the family. Through this process, parents gain insight into how past experiences and unresolved issues may influence their parenting styles and learn practical strategies for fostering stronger connections with their children.

The goal is to strengthen parent-child relationships, improve communication, and create a balanced approach that honors personal values while empowering parents to break cycles of generational trauma. Parenting Counseling equips families with the tools to create a nurturing, healthy environment and raise the next generation with confidence, love, and intention.

Group Therapy

Group therapy is a dynamic form of psychotherapy that brings together individuals who share similar experiences or challenges in a supportive environment. In these sessions, participants engage in meaningful discussions, share their stories, and learn from one another, fostering a sense of connection and understanding. For individuals from culturally diverse backgrounds, including children of immigrant parents and those navigating generational trauma, group therapy can be especially beneficial. It provides a platform to address common issues like cultural conflicts, identity struggles, and self-esteem challenges while gaining insights from others who have faced similar circumstances. Through shared experiences, participants can develop resilience, improve coping skills, and build a strong support network, ultimately enhancing their journey toward healing and personal growth.

It emphasizes executive leadership, work-life balance, personal development, confidence, empowerment, mindset, accountability, and career advancement. By fostering self-awareness and creating actionable strategies, life coaching equips individuals to overcome challenges, build resilience, and achieve meaningful growth. This approach is especially valuable for those navigating transitions or striving for greater clarity and purpose in their lives. With a focus on goal-setting and personal empowerment, life coaching inspires individuals to take charge of their journeys, cultivate a success-oriented mindset, and create a balanced, fulfilling life aligned with their aspirations.

Issues Addressed in Sessions

Then your light will break out like the dawn, And your healing (restoration, new life) will quickly spring forth; Your righteousness will go before you [leading you to peace and prosperity, The glory of the LORD will be your rear guard. - Isaiah 58:8
Anxiety
Anxiety can manifest as constant worry, restlessness, difficulty concentrating, irritability, and physical symptoms like headaches or a rapid heartbeat. Therapy helps by providing a safe space to explore the causes of anxiety, teaching coping strategies, and supporting the development of healthier thought patterns. Through techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness, therapy empowers individuals to regain control and improve their quality of life.
Depression
Depression can appear as persistent sadness, loss of interest in activities, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, changes in sleep and appetite, and feelings of worthlessness or hopelessness. Therapy can help by providing a supportive environment to explore these feelings, identify underlying causes, and develop coping strategies. Through approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and talk therapy, individuals can learn to manage their symptoms, build resilience, and improve their overall well-being.
Trauma/PTSD
Trauma can show up as flashbacks, nightmares, avoidance, mood swings, and guilt. Therapy provides a safe space to process trauma, reduce distress, and regain control. Techniques like TF-CBT, and mindfulness help individuals heal and build resilience, enabling them to manage their reactions and move forward.
Relational Issues
Relational issues can manifest as communication breakdowns, frequent conflicts, lack of trust, or feelings of disconnect in relationships. Therapy offers a supportive environment to explore these issues, improve communication skills, and deepen understanding between individuals. Through techniques like solution-focused therapy or internal family systems, therapy can help individuals and their loved ones navigate conflicts, rebuild trust, and strengthen their relationships. By addressing underlying dynamics and learning effective coping strategies, individuals can foster healthier connections and cultivate fulfilling relationships.
Multicultural Issues
Multicultural issues in families can arise from differences in values, beliefs, communication styles, or cultural expectations. These differences may lead to misunderstandings, conflicts, or feelings of alienation among family members. Therapy provides a safe space to explore these cultural differences, increase cultural awareness, and foster mutual respect within the family. Through culturally sensitive approaches and techniques like multicultural family therapy, therapy can help families navigate these challenges, strengthen their bonds, and celebrate their diverse backgrounds. By promoting open dialogue and understanding, therapy supports families in building harmonious relationships and thriving in multicultural environments.
Career Counseling
Career decision counseling assists individuals in exploring their career options, assessing strengths and interests, and making informed decisions. Therapy offers a supportive environment to clarify goals, identify obstacles, and develop strategies for success. Through personalized assessments and goal-setting exercises, therapy empowers individuals to navigate career transitions confidently and pursue fulfilling paths aligned with their aspirations.

Questions You May Have About Fees

Why Don't You Accept Insurance?

At RenewIn-Minds Counseling and Coaching, I have intentionally chosen not to accept insurance to ensure that I can provide the highest level of care and prioritize your privacy and well-being. Insurance companies often impose limitations on the number of sessions, restrict coverage for specific concerns (such as personal development or certain mental health issues), and may require detailed chart reviews, compromising your confidentiality.

By operating out-of-network, I have the freedom to focus entirely on your unique needs without the restrictions imposed by insurance companies. This approach allows me to offer personalized, high-quality care tailored to your goals and challenges.

If you’d like to explore reimbursement for my services, you can submit a Superbill (an itemized receipt) to your insurance provider for possible out-of-network reimbursement. While there’s no guarantee that your insurance company will cover a portion of the costs, many do provide partial reimbursement. I recommend contacting your insurance provider to understand your out-of-network benefits and whether they accept superbills.

This choice allows me to work directly with you, ensuring a private, flexible, and collaborative experience to help you achieve the transformation you’re seeking.

If you have any questions about this process or how to submit for reimbursement, feel free to reach out. I’m here to help.
