Do stress, anxiety, and fear impede your son or daughter in their sport performance? Do they perform well in practice, but struggle when it comes to games? I specialize in working with athletes (professional, college, high school and middle school) to help them build internal skills to manage external stressors. We work together to discover their purpose, to build optimism, resilience and grit, to identify their performance obstacles and to create their daily performance plan.
Together, we focus on their role in overcoming setbacks, embracing challenges, and utilizing sport psychology skills to achieve their best performance more consistently. They will learn to identify and implement productive self-talk, the power of visualization, and how to challenge negative thoughts in order to build confidence and joy in their sport.
I understand the unique pressures athletes experience and I believe each individual is capable of achieving their goals and dreams! Contact me at MBS Performance Counseling today in order to help your son or daughter take the first step to setting priorities, creating positive thoughts and discovering the amazing things they can accomplish!
