Allyson Eggleton with Beacon Therapy of Utah
Pre-Licensed Professional, CSW
As a former Division 1 athlete and current high school rowing coach, I work with athletes to navigate performance anxiety, confidence fluctuations, burnout, and the mental demands of training and competition. My approach integrates mental skills training (e.g., focus, resilience, reset strategies, and pre-performance routines) with deeper work around identity, pressure, and self-worth. I also support athletes through transitions, including injury, role changes, and life after sport, helping them maintain a sense of stability and purpose. Sessions often focus on translating insight into in-the-moment application during practices, competitions, and team dynamics.

Andrea Elkon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
As a former collegiate volleyball and softball player, I understand that athletic performance incorporates so much more than physical training. I work with athletes who are struggling with anxiety, confidence, focus, or team dynamics. Additionally, I see athletes after they have experienced some major event in their athletic lives; such as acute and chronic injuries, pain, illness, or physical changes with aging. Athletes also struggle frequently with eating concerns and body image. Please feel free to reach out to me to learn more about my approach to treating sports-related performance.

Salt Lake City is the world headquarters of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and this religious and cultural reality profoundly shapes the city's therapy landscape — with therapists who can work thoughtfully within LDS family frameworks, navigate faith transitions, and understand the particular psychological pressures of a community where cultural and religious expectations are deeply intertwined serving an essential role. The city's growing tech industry — part of the 'Silicon Slopes' corridor — creates additional demand for therapists experienced with startup culture, high-performance careers, and the particular identity challenges of building secular professional lives in a deeply religious community. University of Utah Health and Intermountain Medical Center provide major institutional mental health resources alongside a well-developed private therapy community. Salt Lake City's significant LGBTQ+ population — navigating identity in a predominantly LDS cultural context — creates consistent demand for affirming therapists who understand the intersection of queer identity and religious community.
