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.

Dr. Meghan Miller
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
As both a clinical psychologist and someone deeply embedded in sport culture, I work with athletes navigating both performance goals and mental health concerns. Sports psychology is not only about optimizing performance under pressure, improving focus, or strengthening confidence. It also includes addressing anxiety, burnout, identity struggles, injury recovery, depression, and the clinical needs that often go unspoken in competitive environments. I integrate evidence-based therapies such as CBT and ACT to help athletes regulate emotions, manage performance pressure, and build resilience while also attending to underlying mental health concerns. My approach supports the whole person, not just the athlete, so success is sustainable both on and off the field.

I have experience working with athletes from HS, collegiate, professional, and Olympic levels. I have specific knowledge about the stressors that come with being an athlete and performing at high levels. I work extensively with DI college athletes and am listed on the USOPC Mental Health Directory. Some of my interests and specialties within the field of sports psychology include anxiety (including performance anxiety), mindfulness, injury, return to sport after injury, managing chronic health conditions while being an athlete, and high pressure positions.
