New Beginnings Christian Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Athletes and active individuals often face pressure, performance anxiety, burnout, or challenges with motivation and focus. In sports psychology counseling, we help clients develop mental resilience, set achievable goals, and manage stress both on and off the field. By combining evidence-based psychological strategies with Christ-centered guidance, athletes gain tools to improve performance, maintain balance, and cultivate confidence, focus, and emotional well-being in all areas of life.

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.

Elk Grove is a fast-growing, notably diverse Sacramento suburb with large Asian-American (including Hmong), South Asian, Latino, and Black communities, drawing families with newer housing and well-regarded schools. Mental health needs center on parenting and academic pressure, intergenerational and immigrant family dynamics, and building community in neighborhoods where many residents are newcomers. Sacramento's regional provider market and growing local practices serve the city, with culturally specific care in rising demand.
