About Attuned Performance Psychotherapy
Katherine Tromello, M.S., LMFT #89588
Hi, I’m Katherine, a licensed therapist who works with high achievers—including athletes, performers, entrepreneurs, and executives—navigating challenges such as anxiety, ADHD, trauma, perfectionism, and challenging relationship dynamics. My approach is collaborative and tailored to each client, focusing on understanding both performance and the broader life experiences that shape it.
Before becoming a therapist, I competed as a collegiate and professional athlete, experiences that offered firsthand insight into the mental and emotional demands of performance, identity, and transition. During that time, I recognized a significant gap between traditional mental skills training and the deeper emotional support many athletes need to navigate pressure, recovery, and self-worth beyond their performance. That awareness ultimately shaped my path toward becoming a therapist who integrates performance psychology with holistic mental health care.
As an equestrian, I have an increased understanding of the nuanced needs of the equestrian experience—the unique partnership between horse and rider, the mental demands of precision and connection, and the importance of attunement in performance and well-being.
Therapy with me integrates research-informed approaches such as Brainspotting, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Attachment-based frameworks. I also draw from specialized training in ADHD and Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy. My style is interactive, warm, and direct—centered on building awareness, emotional regulation, and self-trust.
Whether you’re navigating performance challenges, stress, or personal growth, therapy offers a space to feel seen, supported, and understood. If you’d like to learn more, reach out to explore whether working together may be a good fit.
