Averill Hovey
Art Therapist, MA, MA, LPC-S, ATR-BC, EMDR
Athletic performance involves much more than physical ability. Confidence, focus, emotional regulation, motivation, identity, and the ability to respond to pressure can all influence how an athlete experiences both competition and themselves.
I work with athletes to explore the connection between mind and body while developing greater awareness of the thoughts, emotions, and physical responses that emerge during training and competition. Drawing from art therapy, somatic and mindfulness-based practices, Gestalt and experiential approaches, visualization, and yoga-informed principles, I help athletes develop strategies for managing performance anxiety, maintaining focus, building confidence, and recovering from setbacks.
Our work can also address the experiences surrounding sport, including injury and rehabilitation, perfectionism, burnout, changing roles, team dynamics, and the challenge of maintaining a sense of identity beyond athletic performance. The goal is to support athletes in performing with greater presence and confidence while fostering a healthier, more sustainable relationship with themselves and their sport.

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.

Being your best both physically and mentally are crucial for success in sports and other competitive activities. Sport psychology can help you master mental strategies to perform better. Issues such as injury prevention and recovery, fears and anxiety, goal setting and achievement, and more can be addressed with sport psychology. I studied and trained in sport psychology at the University of North Texas, and I can help you improve your physical and mental game.

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.
