Sports Psychology

Mental health support for student athletes.

Our Services

Being a Student Athlete Requires More Than Physical Strength.

Athletes are often expected to manage school, training, competition, relationships, injuries, expectations, and major life transitions at the same time. These demands can affect both performance and mental health. Our sports psychology and therapy services support high-school and college athletes — helping them understand the emotional and mental challenges that affect both their daily lives and their athletic performance. Kenedy Shelton works with high-school and college student athletes and specializes in this area.

The Process

What to Expect

1

More Than Performance

Our goal is not simply to improve performance. We help athletes develop confidence, emotional stability, and healthy coping strategies.

2

A Space Away From Pressure

Therapy offers a place to process pressure from coaches, teammates, family members, or yourself — without judgment.

3

Support Through Setbacks

From injury recovery to changes in playing time or team roles, we help athletes navigate the setbacks that affect confidence and wellbeing.

4

Identity Beyond Sport

We help athletes build self-awareness and a stronger sense of identity beyond their sport — including the transition out of competitive athletics.
