About us
“We’re creating a future where healing, performance, and relationships are seamlessly integrated—so people live, lead, and connect at their peak potential, with unwavering presence and resilience.”
The performance Sanctuary
Founded by licensed psychotherapists with backgrounds in trauma healing, performance psychology, and emergency response, The Performance Sanctuary was created to serve those who live intensely: the performers, leaders, caregivers, and warriors of everyday life. Our approach is holistic, blending evidence-based therapy with nature, neuroscience, spiritual wisdom, and body-based healing.
Nestled in the heart of Ballston Spa, NY, our sanctuary is a serene retreat designed to calm the body while reigniting the spirit. From the moment you walk through our doors, you’re met with warm lighting, pleasant smalls, earthy tones, enticing music, and quiet luxury, an intentional design that promotes relaxation and regulation.

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
Integrated Therapy + Wellness: We combine cutting-edge psychotherapies (like Ketamine-Assisted Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Rapid Resolution Therapy, and Gottman Couples Therapy) with physical and spiritual wellness tools like halotherapy, red light therapy, contrast therapy, and more.
Nature-Based Healing: Our unique Ecotherapy options allow you to take therapy into the wild—literally. Meet us at a local nature preserve for nervous system regulation in a living, breathing setting.
Performance-Focused, Soul-Rooted: This is a space for people who want to show up fully in their lives—leaders, creatives, first responders, athletes, high achievers, couples, caregivers, and those who are just getting by.
Community-Centered Growth: From psychoeducational workshops to immersive couples retreats and wellness classes, we offer both one-on-one care and communal opportunities for learning and connection.
The Experiential Difference: Humans don’t transform through information alone—we evolve through experience. Whether it's immersive retreats, nature-based sessions, somatic therapies, or relational workshops, we design experiences that engage your whole self: body, mind, and spirit. By shifting healing and growth from the cognitive to the embodied, we help you internalize change faster, deeper, and more sustainably.
