Winchester, Virginia therapist: Paul T. Haefner, PhD, psychologist

Sports

For more than 30 years I've helped athletes and equestrians turn self-doubt into confidence, fear into courage, distraction into focus, and pressure into performance. Whether you're chasing a competitive goal, stuck in a slump, or rebuilding your nerve after a fall or injury, we'll train the mental side of your sport with the same seriousness you bring to the physical. It's the work Riding Far was built on and it reaches well beyond the arena.

Dr. Patricia Webbink

Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology

For 45 years, with great success, my professional colleagues and I have assisted athletes in all kinds of sports: basketball, baseball, fencing, football, bowling, golf, Aikido, Tai Chi, wrestling twirling, gymnastics, running, and more. We also work with whole teams for peak performance. Research shows that the Mindfulness and Visualization techniques, which I pioneered into the practice of psychotherapy 55 years ago, effectively assist athletic success. For example, by focusing attention on body mindfulness and centering, the athlete is better able to focus on peak performance in sports. In addition, players can regulate thoughts and emotions and personal problems that might distract. Imagery (creative visualization) can be used to improve performance and also to increase self-confidence. Research shows that athletes with higher athletic achievement tend to have stronger imaging abilities. With my guidance, such abilities can be developed, practiced, and ultimately much improved. Broadly speaking, Sport Psychology is defined as the study of the psychological aspects of any competitive, recreational, educational, or health-related physcial activity. I offer free monthly Zoom workshops where I facilitate a balanced state of mind using Mindfulness and Guided Imagery techniques. My colleagues are other licensed therapists and sportscasters! Please feel free to call for a consultation: 301-229-8000.

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.
