Reconstruction

For many athletes, their sport is more than just a game. It’s a core part of their identity. When an injury or retirement forces an athlete to step away from the rink, field, court, or track, it can trigger profound feelings of grief and loss. This experience can be likened to mourning the end of a significant chapter in life, accompanied by emotions such as sadness, anger, and even denial.

Paul’s specialized coaching services acknowledge these feelings and provide a supportive environment where athletes can process their emotions. Through individual coaching, Paul helps athletes recognize and validate their grief, enabling them to navigate this challenging period with greater resilience and understanding.

Reconstructing Identity

Athletic careers, both amateur and professional, are often deeply intertwined with personal identity. When that career ends abruptly, athletes may struggle with a sense of lost purpose and self-worth. This identity crisis can lead to anxiety, depression, and a lack of direction in life.

Through therapeutic techniques and personalized strategies, he assists athletes in exploring new passions, setting new goals, and rediscovering a sense of purpose.
