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.

26 Years Experience
Online in Lubbock, TX Texas (Online Only)
Lubbock is home to Texas Tech University and Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center — the city's largest employers and the anchors of its mental health training and clinical infrastructure — creating a therapy community shaped significantly by student mental health demand and the research programs feeding practitioners into the broader region. The city's conservative religious character and large evangelical community mean faith-integrated therapy is a prominent part of the local offering, with many therapists explicitly integrating spiritual values into evidence-based work. Lubbock's role as the commercial center for a vast agricultural and energy-producing West Texas region means it also draws therapy clients from smaller surrounding towns with no local access. Covenant Health and University Medical Center serve as the major institutional mental health anchors for the South Plains.
