Athletic performance program
The work behind the performance.
A dedicated program for high school and collegiate athletes navigating performance anxiety, pressure, and the weight of an identity built around their sport. Available virtually nationwide and in person in Natick, MA.
How the work goes
We dissect what's actually happening in your body and mind under pressure, then build coping patterns that translate to better performance, not just less suffering. Sessions are 45 minutes and include between session resources and protocols you can use at practice and on competition day.
Who it's for
Student athletes from middle school through college, and post collegiate athletes still navigating the transition out of competitive sport. Parents and coaches are looped in only when it serves the athlete and with their consent.
What we work on
- Performance anxiety mapping
- Pre competition rituals
- Mistake recovery & self talk
- Identity beyond the sport
- Injury & comeback support
- Communication with coaches if desired
6 week program
Two ways to train the mental side.
The 6 week program is offered in two formats. Choose the one that matches where you are in your season, or combine them for a complete reset.
Option one
Situational roadblocks
For athletes who want to strengthen how they respond to pressure, setbacks, or uncertainty mid season. We map what's happening, build reliable coping patterns, and practice them so they show up when it counts.
Option two
Big event prep
Designed for athletes heading into a high stakes performance such as championships, playoffs, or major showcases. We create a pre competition routine, sharpen nervous system regulation, and build the self talk that lets you compete at your best on the biggest stage.
