Discover the transformative power of mindful climbing coaching with Conscious Crux Therapy.
Climbing combines mindfulness (being in the present moment) and movement - two evidence based treatments for anxiety and depression. Whether you're new to climbing or a seasoned pro, our mindful climbing coach will guide you to unlock your potential, overcome mental blocks, and enhance your mind-body connection.
We will work through mental blocks getting in the way of climbing performance and utilize bouldering as a therapeutic tool to support challenges with anxiety, self esteem, or general wellbeing. Together, we will target your unique needs and goals – whether you want to unlock the next climbing grade, strengthen your mind-body connection, expand distress tolerance, or improve your interpersonal relationships.

Our Mindful Climbing Coaching Services
Individual Coaching
Individual coaching is personalized and unique to you! We’ll start by creating an individualized treatment plan and map out your goals. These may include: using mindful movement to connect with your self or move through distress, enhancing climbing performance, or improving the mind-body connection.
Group Coaching
Group coaching works with your small group of romantic, friend, or climbing partners. Working as a group offers the ability to address interpersonal dynamics, strengthen relationships, and work on skills such as trust or communication.
Bouldering Support Group
Once or twice a year, I offer 4-6 week long bouldering support groups. In these therapeutic groups, each week we will learn a new skill or concept, apply it in the climbing wall, and process and integrate as a group. You will gain tools for self-regulation while under stress, increased body and self awareness, and community support.
Mindful Climbing Workshops
Several times a year, I offer one day workshops for you to get an introduction to what mindful climbing looks like! These groups are capped at 20 folks and are 3 hours worth of learning, applying the concepts on the climbing wall, and processing.
