Additionally, she tailors’ specific skills to meet the needs of athletes and Veterans. Further, by understanding the importance of mental health and sports performance, she includes other strategies such as cognitive and dialectical behavioral strategies, motivational interviewing, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and psychological skills training (self-talk, goal setting, imagery, and relaxation). As a performance psychologist, she aims to strengthen the toughness of the tough-minded and toughen up the soft-minded so that athletes can see beyond their potential and see more than just a seed but what that seed can produce.
