Upcoming event at Capacity: Keeping Girls in the Game ⚽️🏀🏐
Featuring guest speaker Katie Steele, LMFT, co-author of The Price She Pays. 💥
A former highly recruited Division I runner at the University of Oregon, Katie’s experience in elite sport shaped her path into mental health advocacy. Now a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and co-founder of Thrive Mental Health in Bend, she focuses on integrating mental health into athletics and supporting athletes beyond performance. 🏃♀️
Katie’s work—and her book The Price She Pays—examines the mental, physical, and emotional costs of youth, collegiate, and elite sports for girls and women, including overtraining, disordered eating, and harmful coaching cultures.
She’ll be joined by Dr. Tiffany Brown, PhD, LMFT, and Ellie Meyrowitz, DPT, for an open forum exploring why participation is dropping and how we can better support girls in sport.
📍 When: Wednesday, February 18th | 6–7pm
📍 Where: Capacity PT — 150 SW Scalehouse Loop St 101, Bend, OR
