Marina Harris, Bloom Psychology Group
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P, CMPC
As a former Division I gymnast and Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC), I understand sport from both a professional and a personal perspective. I work with youth, college, and professional athletes and high performers (performing artists, executives) across disciplines to address the mental side of performance. I can help high performers overcome mental blocks, build confidence, enhance present-moment focus, and feel more calm under pressure. Whether you're looking to break through a plateau, recover from injury, or simply get out of your own head, I can help you perform at your best and actually enjoy it.

Adria Hagg
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Athletes often struggle with anxiety, depressed mood and fear of failure in the high pressure world of competitive professional and college sports. I work with athletes to build self-esteem and mental endurance. In therapy, we often work on CBT and mindfulness skills to challenge intrusive thoughts and overwhelming emotions in the moments before the competition begins.

Joseph Yourchock
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
With extensive experience in treating sports performance anxiety, I help athletes at all levels manage the mental and emotional challenges that impact their performance. I utilize techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and relaxation training to help clients reframe negative thoughts, build confidence, and reduce stress in high-pressure situations. By focusing on the mind-body connection, I guide athletes in developing resilience, maintaining focus, and performing at their best under pressure.

Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies
Psychologist, Ed.D., ABPP
In my work as a sports psychology consultant, I help individuals at all levels of sports to perform at their best. Depending on the individual, I might assist them in learning to relax and reduce excess nerves and anxiety. We might focus on improving confidence through developing healthy self talk and eliminating negative "blocking" beliefs. For some clients, the issue might be dealing with injuries coping with retirement. As a sports psychology consultant and mental skills coach, I have worked with children as young a 10 and seniors in their 70's and beyond.From individual sports like tennis and swimming to team sports like basketball and hockey, I help athletes improve in their sport and in their lives both on and off the playing field.

Dr. Kimberlyann Marsden
Psychologist
I have a passion for working with athletes of all levels. I have a unique perspective because I have experienced sports from many different perspectives: child athlete, collegiate- All American, coach ( from child recreation level to Division 1), parent of athletes, sports psychology researcher and therapist. I take a holistic approach to working with athletes which means I look not only at sport performance but how the athlete is functioning in life- their overall health and well-being. Sessions may include sport specific techniques for performance enhancement, general stress reduction and breathwork techniques, cognitive strategies to enhance mind-set and self-efficacy.

Jason Powell
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CST
Behind the discipline, pressure, and public image, athletes are still human - navigating relationships, identity, and the emotional cost of constant performance. My work with professional athletes goes beyond sport; it focuses on the relational and psychological demands that come with success, visibility, and private strain. Therapy offers a discreet space to process the intersections of competition, intimacy, and identity - how performance anxiety, trust issues, or infidelity can quietly affect focus, motivation, and connection at home. Together, we address the emotional load of being depended on, desired, or defined by the game, and build the tools to sustain balance both on and off the field. Sessions are conducted privately through HIPAA-compliant Zoom across twelve licensed states, and in person at 220 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan. For high-profile clients, confidentiality and precision are paramount — the work stays focused, contained, and entirely your own.

Dr. Meghan Miller
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
As both a clinical psychologist and someone deeply embedded in sport culture, I work with athletes navigating both performance goals and mental health concerns. Sports psychology is not only about optimizing performance under pressure, improving focus, or strengthening confidence. It also includes addressing anxiety, burnout, identity struggles, injury recovery, depression, and the clinical needs that often go unspoken in competitive environments. I integrate evidence-based therapies such as CBT and ACT to help athletes regulate emotions, manage performance pressure, and build resilience while also attending to underlying mental health concerns. My approach supports the whole person, not just the athlete, so success is sustainable both on and off the field.

Jay Shaw
Hypnotherapist, CHt (Certified Hypnotherapist)
Athletic performance breaks down between the ears before it breaks down on the field. Choke moments, performance anxiety, inconsistency under pressure these are subconscious patterns, not skill gaps. I work with competitive athletes to rebuild the identity they compete from: new pressure responses, new pre-performance baselines, and a nervous system calibrated for execution when it counts most.

Marc Feinberg
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, CBC
Great athletes train their bodies — champions train their minds. Sports psychology unlocks the mental edge that separates talent from greatness. Pressure, fear, and self-doubt can sabotage performance, but mental mastery transforms them into fuel for focus and confidence. Through visualization, emotional control, and belief training, athletes learn to turn setbacks into comebacks and nerves into power. The goal isn’t just to win — it’s to perform with freedom, clarity, and joy. When your mind and heart align with your purpose, your potential becomes unstoppable. Every victory begins in the mind — and greatness follows where belief leads.

Grand Rapids is the commercial capital of west Michigan and the cultural center of the Christian Reformed tradition in America — a denomination that has historically shaped the city's conservative, community-oriented character and created a therapy landscape where faith-integrated approaches are among the most sought after. The city has a large Latino community and growing populations from West Africa and Burma through refugee resettlement, creating multilingual and culturally diverse therapy demand alongside its predominantly White and faith-oriented mainstream. Corewell Health and Mercy Health Saint Mary's provide major institutional mental health resources, while Calvin University and Michigan State University's Grand Rapids medical campus contribute training programs. Grand Rapids's growing art and brewing culture reflects a diversifying city identity, and therapists working with creative professionals and young urban residents are increasingly well represented.
