Performance Counseling

Most coaches and athletes acknowledge that at least 40% – 90% of success in sports is due to mental factors. There are many psychological barriers that can affect performance. When performance is impaired, significant consequences can occur such as loss of confidence and motivation, decrease in self-esteem, and overall enjoyment of sport. Overcoming roadblocks for athletes is often necessary in order to reach one’s goals.
