Where strength meets support
Welcome to MINDfuel Therapy
Where growth, grit, and resilience come to life.
At MINDfuel Therapy, we help high-performing individuals reclaim their sense of self beneath the pressure to perform. Whether you're an athlete chasing your next level, a young adult navigating anxiety and self-worth, or someone facing the weight of perfectionism, you're not alone — and you don’t have to carry it all by yourself.
We specialize in supporting athletes, adolescents and young adults who are struggling with:
-
Performance anxiety/ general anxiety
-
Disordered eating and body image concerns
-
Depression, stress, and burnout
-
Life transitions, identity, and self-confidence
-
The unique mental health needs of athletes and high achievers
Through a warm, collaborative, and holistic approach, therapy at MINDfuel is designed to meet you where you are — and help you build the tools, insight, and strength to move forward. We draw from evidence-based practices like CBT, DBT, ACT, and strengths-based therapy to empower you, not just to cope, but to thrive.
This is your space to slow down, refocus, and reconnect — with your values, your goals, and your inner resilience.
Meet Ellie
Hi, I’m Ellie — founder of MINDfuel Therapy.
I became a therapist because I know what it feels like to keep it together on the field while something inside is quietly breaking down.
My work is built around one belief: athletes deserve the same intentional support for their mental game that they give to their physical one.
Therapy here is not a last resort. Its a performance tool - and a real place to just be real.
I practice as a Clinical Social Work Associate and a Certified Sport Social Worker in Oregon offering telehealth and mental performance coaching across the state of Oregon.
Services
At MINDfuel Therapy, I work with individuals age 12-45 years old who are ready to strengthen their mental and emotional well-being — whether they’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply looking for growth.
When the weight gets heavy and you can't name why...
Sometimes it's not one thing. It's everything at once, and you're exhausted trying to hold it all together. This is a space to slow down, make sense of what you're feeling, and start building your way back.
When the pressure follows you off the field...
Whether you're a student-athlete, weekend warrior, or elite performer, the mental game can make or break how you show up. You love the sport, you've put everything into it. But lately the anxiety shows up before games, in the locker room, or even when you're just trying to rest. Together we build the mental tools that match the physical ones you already have.
When your relationship with your body gets complicated...
Whether it's a constant voice about food, pressure to look a certain way, or a cycle you can't break - you deserve support that meets you without judgment and helps you reconnect with your body on your own terms.
When you're running on empty and can't stop...
High achievers hit walls too. If you're grinding through exhaustion and wondering when it will feel like enough, this is the place to figure that out and find a path forward that actually fits your life.
A space that gets you - no performance required...
You don't have to have it all figured out. Teens and young adults are welcome here exactly as they are - to talk, feel heard, build confidence, and develop tools that stay with them for life.
