More about Susan Farber, LMFT

My name is Susan Farber and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in private practice with a specialty in sport psychology. For over 20 years, I have been helping athletes of all ages and skill level unleash their full potential both in their sport and life. My education began at the University of California, Santa Barbara, where I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology in 1989. I then graduated from Antioch University, Santa Barbara, in 1993 with a Masters of Arts degree in Clinical Psychology. As an intern, I received specialized training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mind-Body Modalities at the Family Service Agency. I also developed expertise in treating individuals with Traumatic Brain Injury and Stroke while working at a neuro-cognitive rehabilitation facility for 7 years. In 2002, I became licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist and entered into private practice. I developed an interest in sport psychology as a competitive cyclist and pursued advanced training in peak performance from California Southern University and the Association of Applied Sport Psychology. I have lectured on peak performance, stress management, and sport-related head injury to both professional and athletic groups as well as contributed articles to Santa Barbara Fitness Magazine and Self Growth.com. My desire to specialize in sport psychology grew out of my own struggle with self-limiting beliefs as a competitive cyclist. I was a late bloomer to competitive sports having grown up with non-athletic parents who stressed pursuit of the arts and academics. Most importantly, I come from a multi-generational family of women who lived in fear of loss. Both my mother and grandmother often told me to, “Be careful, don’t hurt yourself” implying that the world is a dangerous place and that caution best be taken.
