Develop your MENTAL GAME to FINALLY CRUSH:
Performance Anxiety - Fear of Failure - Negativity - Overthinking - Hesitation - Mental Blocks

Maximize the Mind teaches scientifically proven tools to athletes in 1:1 sessions, on demand programs, & team trainings.
This is not therapy; it's high performance coaching! It doesn’t mean something is wrong with you when you seek mental skills training. Could you be more Motivated? Confident? Assertive? Focused? Relaxed?
Transform how you manage your emotions!
Mental game is something you develop. A lot of athletes become easily frustrated, second
guess themselves, worry about judgement, have a had a tough injury, fear messing up, or have a hard time just calming their nerves. They’re all talented, but they need to learn strategies to have fun again & get over mistakes quicker so they don’t get burned out.
Have you worked so hard to perfect your talent & yet you still struggle to consistently compete at your best? YOU NEED mental skills training!
It’s more than positive self talk; it’s rewiring how the brain holds onto memories & learning how to get your imagination to work for you. It is possible to change how you think to change how you compete!
10 Ways Work With Us.
01.
1:1 Sessions - in office or virtual apts
You choose a coach you want to work with & schedule an appointment through our online scheduler. The first session is around 90 minutes & existing client sessions are 50 minutes. If you choose to go 1:1 sessions, please understand it's a process & it takes multiple sessions to learn enough strategies that build upon another to see an impact. We create a detailed individualized plan after our initial session based on what you want to solve. We pride ourselves in teaching proven strategies athletes actually want to implement!

POCKET PEP talks
$27
Audio library of 55 short, 3–5 minute mental game reminders athletes can use on the way to practice, before competition, during a long run, or in the weight room. These aren’t motivational speeches – every episode gives athletes one action step they can apply immediately to reset, refocus, and compete with more confidence.
Designed for athletes who know what they’re supposed to do mentally… but forget in the moment. Think of it as me in your ear - helping you remember what to do before overthinking takes over, not after.
These are the same concepts I teach inside my programs and one-on-one sessions, distilled into quick reminders athletes can actually use. This is mental training you can apply immediately! Great option if you want to see my style of teaching before committing to anything bigger!

08.
reframe & Refocus
$49
It's not a talent problem, it's a mental skills gap. Most families want to jump straight to one-on-one sessions, but this is the best place to start after our free challenge. We teach tools, but without a foundation? They work temporarily. Quick tools regulate the nervous system. But this program rewires identity.
This program allows athletes to:
-Rewatch before big meets, or tourneys, or matches, or tryouts
-Revisit reframing tools mid season
-Reinforce identity shifts when confidence dips
-Strengthen patterns through repetition
Instead of trying to remember what was said in one session…
They own the material. Forever. This allows families to start immediately while they are waiting to begin one-on-one sessions and athletes don’t begin sessions from scratch.

09.
team training
This button takes you to a page to fill out a team training form. Speaking to company, team, or group starts at $750 for virtual events & $1200 for in person events. Tell us as much as you can so we can send options in your custom proposal.
There is a list of workshop topics listed on this page.
If you’re on the struggle bus because your performance isn’t what you know you’re capable of & you’re letting frustration or fear get the best of you… you need tools to thrive under pressure & be able to control emotions so you can actually trust your talent! We love to inspire audiences on stress management, goal setting, creating culture, and conquering doubt because mental training isn't just for athletes.
We’ve had organizations cover costs through: booster clubs, team funds, each athlete contributes, acquire sponsors for the event, or the gym/company/school covers the training.

10.
blogs
If you’re not quite ready to jump into a session or a program, our blog is a great place to start. We publish weekly articles written by our mental performance coaches that break down what mental training actually looks like in real life - not fluffy motivation, but practical tools, mindset shifts, and performance strategies you can use right away. From handling nerves and bouncing back after mistakes to building confidence, emotional control, and resilience under pressure, our blog gives you a behind-the-scenes look at how we teach athletes to compete stronger and more consistently. If you’re curious about our philosophy, our approach, or just want to learn something new, this is the perfect place to dive in.
