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.

Dr. Thomas Ballas
Psychologist, PhD; PSYPACT
I am a clinical psychologist with specialized expertise in performance enhancement, drawing from my experiences as an operational psychologist in the U.S. Army. During my military career, I worked extensively with individuals operating in high-stress environments, helping them build mental resilience, maintain focus, and perform at their peak during critical missions. These experiences have given me a unique understanding of the psychological demands of high-pressure situations, which translates seamlessly into the world of sports and performance at all levels of competition.
With advanced training in evidence-based approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based techniques, I help athletes and performers optimize their mental game. Whether you're striving to overcome mental blocks, enhance focus, or build confidence, my goal is to help you unlock your full potential. Together, we will develop a tailored approach to strengthen your mindset, improve performance, and achieve success in your sport or field.

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.
