Connor Koch is a compassionate Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a Master’s in Sport and Human Performance Psychology from Adler University. He works collaboratively with clients who feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, self-doubt, and emotional overwhelm, helping them build insight, resilience, and sustainable change.
Connor has a particular focus on anxiety-related concerns, including social anxiety, performance anxiety, OCD, generalized anxiety, and anxiety related to ADHD and life transitions. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), he helps clients understand how anxious thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact—and develop practical skills to reduce avoidance, manage intrusive thoughts, and increase confidence both internally and in real-world situations.
With experience working with children, adults, families, and athletes, Connor is especially attuned to the pressures of performance, perfectionism, and identity—whether in sports, school, work, or relationships. His approach is structured yet flexible, balancing skill-building with deeper emotional work so clients feel supported while making meaningful progress.
Outside of the therapy room, Connor enjoys playing hockey, hiking, and watching movies with his cat. These activities help him stay grounded and present, allowing him to bring a calm, engaged, and authentic presence into his work with clients.
