Leaving a sport behind can shake a person’s sense of identity and make the next direction hard to find. I’m Kimberly Redlicki, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Redondo Beach, California, and I specialize in former athletes, supporting them as they understand and heal from all that their sport experience involved.
A complicated relationship with the body, exercise or food can be part of the loss too, and experiences from sport that were never processed may surface. My clients include former athletes, high achievers and athletes. Areas I work in are identity beyond a person’s craft, coaching dynamics, sports performance, life transitions, anxiety, perfectionism and pressure.
Online therapy sessions are collaborative, grounded and warm, with directness when helpful and an insight-oriented focus. I am trained in eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), which I use when appropriate, and in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy.
