Sports Psychology
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.

Long Island Psychotherapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R, CCTP
Elite performance requires more than physical training—it demands an unshakeable mindset. Whether you are an athlete struggling with performance anxiety, recovering from an injury, battling a severe slump, or fighting perfectionism, the mental blocks can feel paralyzing. I use a forward-focused blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you develop laser focus, manage high-stakes pressure, and build emotional resilience. Together, we will transform your relationship with stress so you can perform freely, compete at your highest level, and find joy in the game again.

Alberto Gamarra
Psychologist, Ph. D. NCSP
In today's athletic environment, there are so many "issues" for parents and their student-athletes to overcome. A few of the topics that I have worked with in my 20+ years include: parent/coach dynamics, sideline behavior, athlete motivation, performance issues, concussions, goal-setting, team building, injury recovery, and career termination. Each of these areas is approached with care and individuality that they deserve, no 2 student-athletes present in the same way.
