Marina Harris, Bloom Psychology Group
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P, CMPC
As a former Division I gymnast and Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC), I understand sport from both a professional and a personal perspective. I work with youth, college, and professional athletes and high performers (performing artists, executives) across disciplines to address the mental side of performance. I can help high performers overcome mental blocks, build confidence, enhance present-moment focus, and feel more calm under pressure. Whether you're looking to break through a plateau, recover from injury, or simply get out of your own head, I can help you perform at your best and actually enjoy it.

Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Nationally Registered Health Service Provider
I provide sports and performance psychology to high school, college, and professional athletes. I have worked with world-class athletes in a variety of sports (softball, baseball, soccer, figure skating, fencing, dance, basketball, and more). Whether you are a high school athlete or a professional, I use the most advanced, innovative techniques. I aim to help you feel "flow" more often, improve your overall performance, and experience a new and lasting sense of joy.
