Currently completing my Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Athletic Counseling MEd programs at Springfield College, I bring both personal experience and professional expertise to our work together.
I work with athletes from all backgrounds, with a focus on those in aesthetic sports like gymnastics. As both a former athlete and coach, I understand the physical and mental challenges of sports.
My experience includes competitive team coaching and mental health support, allowing me to provide well-rounded guidance throughout your athletic journey.
As an intern at Skadi Sport Psychology, I offer services at a reduced rate. All of my work is supervised by Dr. Ayala, ensuring you receive high-quality, professional support on your athletic journey.
Talento sincerely thanks Skadi Sport Psychology, Dr. Erin Ayala and Laurie Miller for generously contributing their time, knowledge, and expertise to support youth athlete development through this initiative.
