Dr. Mitch Keil, PsyD
Psychologist, Keil Psych Group
Athletes often spend enormous amounts of time training their bodies while giving far less attention to the mind that's actually directing them.
Sports psychology can help with performance anxiety, confidence, focus, motivation, perfectionism, fear of failure, recovering from mistakes, and performing under pressure. But our approach also goes deeper. Sometimes the thing interfering with performance isn't simply a lack of mental skills. There may be something psychologically meaningful happening beneath the surface.
For some athletes, performance becomes inseparable from self-worth. A mistake doesn't just feel like a mistake—it feels like something is wrong with you. Others become overly controlled, lose their instincts under pressure, struggle with expectations from coaches or parents, or find that the harder they try to perform, the further they get from the relaxed and instinctive state where they perform best.
Our approach to sports psychology combines performance-focused strategies with psychodynamic and depth-oriented therapy. We work on the practical side—focus, emotional regulation, confidence, visualization, resilience, and performing under pressure—while also understanding the deeper patterns that may be getting in your way.
We also work with athletes navigating injury, burnout, transitions, loss of confidence, and the difficult question of who you are when you're not competing or performing at your best.
The goal isn't just better performance. It's greater psychological freedom—the ability to compete hard, take risks, recover from failure, trust yourself, and perform without your entire sense of self riding on the outcome.

Athletes face unique psychological challenges; performance anxiety, identity tied to sport, injury recovery, and the pressure to perform consistently at the highest level.
