Elite Athletes
The pressure is immense. The stakes are high. As a college or professional athlete, you face unique challenges both on and off the field. If ADHD, addiction, performance anxiety, or outside stressors—like relationships, expectations, financial pressures, or life transitions—are affecting your focus, you're not alone. I understand. I specialize in helping elite athletes like you manage distractions, build mental resilience, and develop the tools needed to thrive. Together, we’ll strengthen your ability to stay locked in, perform under pressure, and show up with unshakeable confidence—no matter what’s going on around you.

Emotional Awareness
Have you learned to keep your emotions boxed up just to get through the day—or to stay focused under pressure? Maybe you struggle to name what you're feeling, or you were taught to push emotions aside growing up. That strategy may have helped you perform, but now those emotions are starting to surface. I offer a space where high performers, athletes, and adults with ADHD can safely unpack what's been buried, learn to express emotions in a healthy way, and build emotional resilience—without losing their edge.

ADHD
For adults with ADHD, life can feel fast-paced, scattered, and overwhelming. You may struggle with emotional regulation, executive functioning, or feel stuck under the weight of frustration, perfectionism, and shame. Whether you're a high achiever juggling a demanding schedule or someone simply trying to stay on track, you don’t have to navigate this alone. Together, we’ll uncover your strengths, manage the overwhelm, and help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

About Maren Londahl-Smidt, LCSW, LCAS
Helping You Perform at Your Best-In Sport, Business and Life
Welcome to Infinity Growth Practice. I specialize in working with elite athletes, entrepreneurs, college students, and high achievers to overcome mental and emotional obstacles and unlock their full potential. With over 11 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist, I help clients navigate challenges related to ADHD, anxiety, addiction, attachment, and confidence.
Throughout my career, I’ve worked in diverse settings—including medical facilities, outpatient therapy, community mental health, and now private practice—supporting individuals from all walks of life. My therapeutic approach is client-centered, strength-based, and draws from evidence-informed modalities tailored to your unique needs.
I hold a Master’s in Social Work from NC State University and a Master’s in Service Agency Counseling from UNC Pembroke. My path to becoming a therapist wasn’t linear—it was a winding journey full of valuable lessons I now use to help others break through barriers and create a new way forward.
Outside the therapy room, you’ll find me spending time with my dogs, running, traveling, enjoying live music, and pursuing my lifelong passion for riding and showing horses. And as always, I’m an unwavering NC State Wolfpack fan.
