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.

Michael Nakhla
Psychiatrist, MD
Athletes face unique mental challenges including performance anxiety, injury recovery, motivation, and the pressure to excel. I apply psychiatric expertise to sports psychology, helping athletes develop mental toughness, visualization skills, and strategies to manage competitive stress. My approach addresses both performance optimization and the mental health challenges that can arise in high-pressure athletic environments.

Stuart Hellebrand, M.S., C.Ht.
Hypnotherapist
Hypnosis is a valuable tool for those seeking a competitive edge in sports performance. I have been involved with sports performance improvement since the 1970’s through my work with sports competitors to include recreational golfers, collegiate middle-distance runners and swimmers, marathon runners, and others. Noteworthy, among my clients, has been a CIF track and field champion, a swimmer on Cal Berkeley’s 2X national championship team, a collegiate middle-distance champion, and a marathoner who successfully completed the Mount Everest Marathon.
Addressing the performance aspects of sports through hypnosis complements physical training and can lead to breakthrough performances. My use of hypnosis works by reprogramming negative self-talk, empowering performance through affirmations and guided imagery, boosting confidence, and reducing anxiety. In that pre-competition jitters or fear of failure can derail an athlete’s mindset, hypnosis employs subconscious relaxation techniques and guided imagery to reduce cortisol levels and promote a calm composed state of mind, while fostering a winning attitude.
Studies have shown the efficacy of hypnosis in sports. For example, a 2016 review in the International Journal of Sports Science highlighted significant performance improvements in athletes who used hypnosis compared to those who did not. Those who used hypnosis reported better focus, reduced pre-competition anxiety, and enhanced execution of skills after hypnosis sessions.
In sports performance counseling, my use of hypnosis facilitates vivid mental imagery, allowing athletes to visualize successful performance. Research has shown that mental rehearsal can strengthen neural pathways, helping the body to perform as if it has already achieved the desired outcome. Using hypnotic relaxation to tap into an athlete’s subconscious allows the competitor to tap into their commitment to training, discipline, and goal achievement in a stress-free manner.
