Ben Foodman is one of the few professionals that is both a licensed psychotherapist and Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC) through the Association for Applied Sport Psychology (AASP). He typically works with NASCAR, IndyCar, IMSA & Rally racecar drivers, NFL players, ACC & SEC Cross Country athletes, MLB & college baseball players, high school, middle school and master's level athletes. The athletes Ben works with are usually trying to overcome sports mental blocks like the Yips or the Twisties, deal with mental health issues, improve focus/aggression, & mental toughness in order to achieve peak sports performance.
When athletes work with Ben to improve their metal performance, he uses mental skills training and sports psychology tools such as Brainspotting, EMDR, biofeedback, neurofeedback, exercise psychology, leadership development and tactical coaching. He sees his clients in-person (or virtual) in Charlotte, Mooresville, Cornelius, & Raleigh North Carolina.
Ben's background in sports psychology and applied experience working with athletes in sports performance environments has given him the ability to understand how much pressure athletes are under, and how this can impact their ability to reach their true potential. He knows firsthand what it takes to reach the top & wants to help athletes reach their goals.
