Marc Feinberg
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, CBC
Great athletes train their bodies — champions train their minds. Sports psychology unlocks the mental edge that separates talent from greatness. Pressure, fear, and self-doubt can sabotage performance, but mental mastery transforms them into fuel for focus and confidence. Through visualization, emotional control, and belief training, athletes learn to turn setbacks into comebacks and nerves into power. The goal isn’t just to win — it’s to perform with freedom, clarity, and joy. When your mind and heart align with your purpose, your potential becomes unstoppable. Every victory begins in the mind — and greatness follows where belief leads.

Melissa LaCour
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Elite performance isn't just physical. The athletes and coaches who sustain long careers are the ones who give the same attention to their mental game that they give to their physical training. I work with college and professional athletes, high school competitors, and coaches navigating performance anxiety, burnout, identity after injury or retirement, team conflict, and the relentless pressure to perform. I've competed as a distance runner and tennis player, so I understand firsthand what it means to push through mental resistance when your body and mind are working against each other. My approach is direct, practical, and built around your specific competitive context.

Being your best both physically and mentally are crucial for success in sports and other competitive activities. Sport psychology can help you master mental strategies to perform better. Issues such as injury prevention and recovery, fears and anxiety, goal setting and achievement, and more can be addressed with sport psychology. I studied and trained in sport psychology at the University of North Texas, and I can help you improve your physical and mental game.
