Sports Psychology
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.

Sports Psychology
Andrea Elkon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
As a former collegiate volleyball and softball player, I understand that athletic performance incorporates so much more than physical training. I work with athletes who are struggling with anxiety, confidence, focus, or team dynamics. Additionally, I see athletes after they have experienced some major event in their athletic lives; such as acute and chronic injuries, pain, illness, or physical changes with aging. Athletes also struggle frequently with eating concerns and body image. Please feel free to reach out to me to learn more about my approach to treating sports-related performance.

Sports Psychology
Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies
Psychologist, Ed.D., ABPP
In my work as a sports psychology consultant, I help individuals at all levels of sports to perform at their best. Depending on the individual, I might assist them in learning to relax and reduce excess nerves and anxiety. We might focus on improving confidence through developing healthy self talk and eliminating negative "blocking" beliefs. For some clients, the issue might be dealing with injuries coping with retirement. As a sports psychology consultant and mental skills coach, I have worked with children as young a 10 and seniors in their 70's and beyond.From individual sports like tennis and swimming to team sports like basketball and hockey, I help athletes improve in their sport and in their lives both on and off the playing field.
