Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you’re an athlete or performer, you may know exactly what you’re capable of—yet find that in key moments, you don’t perform at your best. You might overthink, lose focus, feel pressure, or struggle with confidence despite strong preparation and skill. This gap between what you can do in practice and what shows up under pressure can be frustrating and hard to explain.
I help athletes close that gap by training both the mind and the body to perform consistently under pressure. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we identify and shift the thought patterns that interfere with focus and confidence. With clinical hypnosis, NLP, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), we work at a deeper level to strengthen concentration, reduce performance anxiety, and condition automatic responses that support peak performance. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you stay present, grounded, and fully engaged in the moment—so you can execute rather than overthink.
What’s often missing isn’t ability—you already have the skill set. What’s missing is a reliable way to access that ability consistently, especially when it matters most. Without that, performance can feel unpredictable, and confidence can fluctuate based on outcomes rather than staying stable.
The fact that you’re here suggests you want to perform at a higher level. If you’re willing to train your mind as intentionally as you train your body, I can help you improve focus, build confidence, and perform more consistently when it counts.

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.
