Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are an athlete or performer, you know that mindset can impact performance just as much as physical training. You may struggle with performance anxiety, loss of confidence after injury, pressure to succeed, or difficulty staying focused under stress. Even highly skilled athletes can feel mentally blocked at times.
At Selah Counselling, we approach sports psychology with practical, evidence-based strategies that strengthen mental resilience. We focus on performance mindset, emotional regulation, confidence-building, and pressure management in high-demand environments. Together, we work on sharpening focus, recovering from setbacks, and building consistency so your mental game supports your physical ability. The goal is not just peak performance, but sustainable confidence and steadiness both on and off the field.

Junie Baek
Registered Psychotherapist, MTA, RP (Qualifying)
Performance anxiety results from many reasons but sometimes from a fear of judgment or failure, leading to heightened stress in situations where one is evaluated or expected to perform. Performance anxiety can be a heavy burden for musicians, students, athletes, or anyone, holding them back from reaching their full potential. As a long-time musician who performed since a young age, I deeply understand what it is like to be a musician and to be under constant pressure. I provide a compassionate space to explore these fears, helping you understand and manage the pressure. Together, we'll build strategies to regain confidence and channel your energy positively, so you can perform with clarity and thrive in your passion. Please schedule a free consultation with me to see if we are a good fit.
