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.

Dr. Meghan Miller
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
As both a clinical psychologist and someone deeply embedded in sport culture, I work with athletes navigating both performance goals and mental health concerns. Sports psychology is not only about optimizing performance under pressure, improving focus, or strengthening confidence. It also includes addressing anxiety, burnout, identity struggles, injury recovery, depression, and the clinical needs that often go unspoken in competitive environments. I integrate evidence-based therapies such as CBT and ACT to help athletes regulate emotions, manage performance pressure, and build resilience while also attending to underlying mental health concerns. My approach supports the whole person, not just the athlete, so success is sustainable both on and off the field.

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.
