Marina Harris, Bloom Psychology Group
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P, CMPC
As a former Division I gymnast and Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC), I understand sport from both a professional and a personal perspective. I work with youth, college, and professional athletes and high performers (performing artists, executives) across disciplines to address the mental side of performance. I can help high performers overcome mental blocks, build confidence, enhance present-moment focus, and feel more calm under pressure. Whether you're looking to break through a plateau, recover from injury, or simply get out of your own head, I can help you perform at your best and actually enjoy it.

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.

Lauren Chavis
Psychologist, PsyD, PMH-C
Athletes face a unique combination of performance pressure, expectations, identity, competition, and setbacks. As a former collegiate athlete, I understand the demands of competitive sports and work with athletes on performance anxiety, confidence, perfectionism, motivation, injury and transition, and managing the mental side of competition.

Olathe is the county seat of Johnson County—one of the wealthiest counties in the United States—and a prosperous Kansas City suburb with a highly educated population, strong schools, and a community culture that values achievement, all of which shapes the mental health landscape toward concerns about perfectionism, parenting pressure, and the anxiety of high expectations across the life span. A well-developed private therapy sector reflects the community's means and generally positive attitude toward seeking support, and the proximity to Kansas City's broader health resources gives residents access to specialists across a wide range of modalities and populations. Many churches and faith communities in Olathe incorporate or partner with mental health professionals, reflecting a faith-integrated approach to well-being common in this part of the Midwest. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, adolescent mental health, parenting stress, work-life balance, and the relational challenges that arise in a community where success and high performance are deeply embedded expectations.
