Michael Zamrin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW, MA
In the world of sports, physical skill is only part of the equation—mental strength, focus, and confidence are just as crucial to success. As a therapist with a special interest in sports psychology, I help young athletes overcome the internal obstacles that can hold them back, such as performance anxiety, self-doubt, and negative thinking. Through targeted mental skills training, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and a supportive therapeutic relationship, I work with athletes to build confidence, develop resilience, and stay mentally strong under pressure. My goal is to help young athletes move past the fears and mental blocks that get in the way, so they can fully access their potential and perform at their best—both on and off the field.

Jason Powell
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CST
Behind the discipline, pressure, and public image, athletes are still human - navigating relationships, identity, and the emotional cost of constant performance. My work with professional athletes goes beyond sport; it focuses on the relational and psychological demands that come with success, visibility, and private strain. Therapy offers a discreet space to process the intersections of competition, intimacy, and identity - how performance anxiety, trust issues, or infidelity can quietly affect focus, motivation, and connection at home. Together, we address the emotional load of being depended on, desired, or defined by the game, and build the tools to sustain balance both on and off the field. Sessions are conducted privately through HIPAA-compliant Zoom across twelve licensed states, and in person at 220 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan. For high-profile clients, confidentiality and precision are paramount — the work stays focused, contained, and entirely your own.
