High Performance Has a Human Cost

The same drive that makes you exceptional in your sport can make it hard to ask for help. Henley Psychotherapy offers confidential therapy for athletes in St. Catharines and virtually across Ontario.

Dan Zamfir has worked extensively with professional and semi-professional athletes, blending evidence-based psychotherapy with an understanding of sport culture. The focus isn't only on performance. It's on the person, and on the relationships that absorb the strain of a demanding athletic career.

Who We Work With

Professional Athletes

Managing performance pressure, public scrutiny, contract and career uncertainty, and the toll of a life organized entirely around competition.

Semi-Professional Athletes

Balancing elite training and competition with work, school, and family, and the stress of straddling two demanding worlds.

Retired Athletes

Navigating the loss of identity, structure, and community that often follows the end of a career, and figuring out who you are next.

Coaches & Athletic Families

Support for the people around the athlete, who carry their own pressures and relational strain.

What We Help With

As with first responders, much of this work is relational: the way a high-stress, high-stakes career reshapes how you connect with the people who matter most.

Confidential, Flexible, and Direct-Billed

Sessions are available in person in St. Catharines and virtually across Ontario, with scheduling that works around training and travel. Direct billing is available with many insurers, including Green Shield, Manulife, Canada Life, and Cowan, subject to your policy.
