Overview

Sport and performance psychology consultations are provided by Behavior Therapy Associates to assist individuals in enhancing their mental approach to sport and performance. These consultations focus on the connection between mindset, behavior, and performance in high-pressure environments. By addressing thoughts, emotions, and habits that influence performance, clinicians help individuals develop strategies that support confidence, focus, and resilience.

Our clinicians incorporate principles from Acceptance and Commitment Training (ACT), which emphasizes mindfulness, acceptance of internal experiences, and commitment to actions that align with personal values. This approach helps individuals remain focused on performance goals while learning to respond more effectively to stress, pressure, and self-doubt.
