Peak performance demands more than physical ability—it takes psychological resilience, clarity under pressure, and mental agility. I’m Dr. Justin Tausig, a Sport & Performance Psychologist, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and former world-class épée fencer. I work with athletes, performers, and professionals who want to strengthen their mental game and thrive in high-stakes environments—whether that’s competition, the stage, or everyday life.
Specialties: • Olympic & Elite Athlete Performance • Mental Skills & Resilience Training • Performance Anxiety & Burnout • Psychodynamic Psychotherapy • Athlete Transitions & Identity Development • Focus, Confidence & Competitive Mindset
I began fencing in 1983 and started competing internationally in 1986. From 1993 to 2004, I trained at the Racing Club de France in Paris, at a time when U.S. fencing was still finding its footing internationally. During that period, I qualified for five World Championship Teams, the Pan American Games, and the World University Games.
