Welcome to SPIRE Sport Psychology.

We’re glad you’re here.

What we think and how we feel ultimately affects how we behave, or in the case of sport, perform.

SPIRE’s Mental Skills Training works with student athletes across all academy and camp sports and programs to optimize performance and well being.  The SPIRE Mental Skills team will help athletes:

• Enhance performance. 

  Various mental strategies, such as visualization, self-talk and relaxation techniques, can help athletes overcome obstacles and achieve their full potential.

• Cope with the pressures of competition. 

  Mental Skills Training can help athletes at all levels deal with pressure from parents, coaches or even their own expectations.

• Recover from injuries. 

  After an injury, athletes may need help tolerating pain, adhering to their physical therapy regimens or adjusting to being sidelined.

• Keep an exercise program. 

  Even those who want to exercise regularly may find themselves unable to fulfill their goal. SPIRE Mental Skills Training can help these individuals increase their motivation and tackle any related concerns.

• Enjoy sports. 

  SPIRE’s Mental Skills team will educate coaches about how to help kids enjoy sports and how to promote healthy self-esteem in participants.

Mental Skills Training will also help student athletes off the playing field. The same strategies that sport psychologists teach athletes – relaxation techniques, mental rehearsals and cognitive restructuring, for example – are also useful in school, at home and other settings.
