With mental performance coaching, the athlete can work through the mental blocks that are holding them back.

Another approach is a proactive approach. Now with this approach you may still be noticing mental blocks present, but poor performance isn’t the main reason for working with a mental performance coach.

When an athlete takes a proactive approach to mental coaching they are doing so because they understand the benefits it will have on their mindset and their game.

I work with both approaches: athletes who are underperforming currently and need to quickly overcome a mental block, along with athletes who are currently performing well, but know a stronger mental game will lead to increased performance.

I like outlining both approaches, because it shows you that no matter if you’re currently underperforming or performing well, you can benefit from working with a mental performance coach.
