Adria Hagg
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Athletes often struggle with anxiety, depressed mood and fear of failure in the high pressure world of competitive professional and college sports. I work with athletes to build self-esteem and mental endurance. In therapy, we often work on CBT and mindfulness skills to challenge intrusive thoughts and overwhelming emotions in the moments before the competition begins.

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.
