Chloe Koutsos
Counselor/Therapist, NCC LPC
More and more athletes are sharing their struggle and story with mental health concerns including athletes in the NFL, NBA, Olympics, WTT. Athletes in elite sports sharing their personal experiences with mental health has positively impacted mental health publicity and others receiving treatment and support. Individual psychotherapy has been shown to be an effective treatment for a range of presenting concerns or issues and can help with managing anxiety and stress.

Alberto Gamarra
Psychologist, Ph. D. NCSP
In today's athletic environment, there are so many "issues" for parents and their student-athletes to overcome. A few of the topics that I have worked with in my 20+ years include: parent/coach dynamics, sideline behavior, athlete motivation, performance issues, concussions, goal-setting, team building, injury recovery, and career termination. Each of these areas is approached with care and individuality that they deserve, no 2 student-athletes present in the same way.

Paul T. Haefner, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
For more than 30 years I've helped athletes and equestrians turn self-doubt into confidence, fear into courage, distraction into focus, and pressure into performance. Whether you're chasing a competitive goal, stuck in a slump, or rebuilding your nerve after a fall or injury, we'll train the mental side of your sport with the same seriousness you bring to the physical. It's the work Riding Far was built on and it reaches well beyond the arena.
