What can happen when you start working with a mental performance coach?

6 Ways to Tell a Student Athlete Has a Mental Performance Coach

  1. They view failure with perspective.
    Seeing setbacks as chances to grow, not as threats to their self-worth

  2. They are highly motivated and focused.
    Consistently engaging in training and competitions with clear goals

  3. They show emotional resilience.
    Quickly bouncing back from challenges while maintaining a positive mindset

  4. They have strong social connections.
    Including supportive relationships among teammates, coaches, and friends outside of their sport

  5. They handle stress in a healthy way.
    Managing pressure and staying calm in high-stakes situations

  6. They are consistent in school and sports.
    Balancing both academic and athletic responsibilities without burnout

  • Once you choose a program, you will choose a date/time to have an initial consultation with one of our lead coaches in as quickly as one day. This consultation is for both athletes and parents. From there you are assigned a coach and you can schedule your student athlete to begin their recurring weekly sessions right away at a time that works for their schedule. The sessions are 45 minutes long and there are 3-week and 8-week programs, as well as ongoing mental performance coaching.

  • Parents and athletes are encouraged to attend the initial coaching consultation. Parents can and will periodically communicate with coaches throughout the duration of an athlete's time with us.

  • We typically coach athletes who are between the ages of 12 - 25. Let us know if your athlete falls outside of that age group and we can discuss an applicable program.

  • Our digital platform integrates Zoom for video sessions with your coach where you see each other and talk with each other in a virtual face-to-face environment.

  • After you sign up, we will meet with your family to understand your needs and provide a coach who fits their objectives and preferences and understands the type of challenges they are experiencing.

  • Our coaching program is designed to cover all sports, and with our team of coaches we can typically provide sport-specific experience.

  • For privacy and security purposes, sessions are not recorded.

  • Yes, mental performance coaching focuses on enhancing specific mental skills to boost athletic performance, using practical techniques and strategies. Sports psychology, on the other hand, addresses both performance and broader psychological aspects such as mental health, emotional well-being, and therapy. While both aim to improve an athlete's performance, sports psychology includes a more clinical psychological and therapeutic component while mental performance will focus on performance outcomes.

  • You can easily reschedule any of your sessions through our online portal, or with a coach. We ask that you provide at least 24 hours' notice.

  • For privacy and security purposes, sessions are not recorded.

  • Yes. We perform a multi-level background check to ensure our coaches are able to meet our strict code of conduct.

  • The use cases can vary. We typically see athletes utilize one of our standard programs (3-week, 8-week, 1:1 or group) and then a portion decide to continue with our ongoing coaching program, where we focus on helping them longer term.

  • Your athlete will learn essential mental skills to enhance their performance, including goal-setting, focus, confidence, resilience, visualization techniques, and stress management strategies. Our programs are designed to build a strong mental foundation, helping athletes to perform at their best in training, competition, and life.

  • Your security is important to us. Our platform features SSL encryption and AES-256 security protocols.
