Harness Your Mind   •   Train Your Body   •  Unlock Your Potential

The power of the mind, you've heard about it, but have you considered how to harness it? I teach the mental skills and strategies to optimize performance. 

YOUR GOAL IS WITHIN REACH... you just need the tools to get there! I work with adults and youth of all levels to help them gain the mental skills to propel themselves towards success.  Drawing on my background as a psychologist, competitive athlete, and mental game coaching professional I create highly customized strategies for each individual, maximizing the potential they already have within them! 

 

I WILL HELP YOU BRIDGE THE GAP BETWEEN GOAL AND ACCOMPLISHMENT 

 

What differentiates me from others in the field is my experience, my training and my ability and desire to connect with each client, providing individualized support and expertise for the person as a whole.

Whether you’re looking to perform better, try something new, improve your fitness, recover from an injury, or transition smoothly through a life phase such as childbirth or menopause, I design a detailed, personalized plan and help you navigate at every juncture to meet your goal.

"...Shelly worked with our crew of 4 to mentally prepare for the USRowing National Regatta (U19), which we won. I don’t think we would have won without her....."

"...Shelly is very much about mental resilience.  She is a natural endurance athlete which gives me the best of both worlds, an extremely successful competitive athlete and a world-class psychologist. Shelly’s coaching saw me through my first ironman and got me qualified for the Boston Marathon twice..."

Mental Edge is the Difference

With the targeted mental skills training you will learn and practice, you can not only meet, but exceed your training level. 

 

My approach is framed by the notion that mental training is AS important as physical preparedness and is essential in high performance.
