Jon Cunha, LMHC earned his Master's from Lesley University in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Jon is the Co-Owner of Riser and Tread, a company dedicated to helping young guys ages 8-25 "Step Up + Move Forward." Jon specializes in working with athletes.

Jon was a three time All-American in Track and Field at Wheaton College, MA. Injuries, that lead to a state of depression ended his career as a runner. That experience helped motivate him towards wanting to support others going through something similar.

He has developed a training program for athletes, coaches, and organizations to strengthen mental fitness and resolve, called Sports Performance + Recovery. Along with his clinical license, Jon also coached Track and Field for almost a decade. He now combines the benefits of therapeutic interventions, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), with athletic coaching principles, such as goal and fear setting, purpose development, and breath training.
