Todd Deutsch
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
For more than 20 years, I’ve worked with athletes around confidence, performance anxiety, pressure, focus, motivation, identity, and the fear of failure. My approach helps athletes better understand what gets in the way mentally, manage the stress of competition, quiet overthinking, and build the confidence and emotional resilience needed to perform more freely and consistently.

Brian McCloud, Nomad Healing Practices
Counselor/Therapist, APCC, LAC
Performance lives in your body, your mind, and the story you tell yourself under pressure. Through my experience working in high-performance settings, I've addressed performance anxiety, slumps, the inner critic, and identity after injury or transition, building focus and resilience that hold up when it counts. I’ve worked with high school, collegiate, and Olympic athletes.
