Speakstone is where the science-based understanding of psychology meets the strategic application of mental fitness, propelling athletes past personal blocks to the best performance of their careers. With tailored strategies for mind-body synergy, we're here to empower your athletic journey, making every goal more attainable and every victory that much sweeter. Welcome to the place where potential meets performance.
Our counseling and therapy focuses on the psychological factors that affect athletic performance and vice versa. We tap into
knowledge from biomechanics, physiology, kinesiology, and psychology and use our understanding and expertise to not only to enhance the performance and experience in sports through cognitive and behavioral strategies but also to
improve the psychological and physical well-being of our athletes.
Handle pressure, overcome setbacks, and gain better performance during critical moments.
Enhance concentration, maintain focus, and avoid distractions for higher levels of execution.
A confident athlete is more likely to take on challenges, perform under pressure, and achieve their full potential.
Manage anxiety, excitement, frustration, and anger to learn the emotional control crucial for performing well under stress.
We help our clients develop mindfulness and resilience; communicate effectively and understand what they need from those around them; overcome their fight, flight, freeze response; regulate their mindset and emotions; hone their leadership abilities; and release mental blocks or stored issues in the body that could be holding them back from getting in "the flow" state. We work on translating these gains into a healthy emotional life outside of sports by working through any negative emotional states such as depression, anxiety, PTSD and trauma, family and relationship issues, grief and loss, body dysmorphia, disordered eating or exercise, or any other of life's challenges that might be blocking performance or hindering quality of life.
Our major counseling techniques include: Brainspotting, Person-Centered, Acceptance & Commitment (ACT), Gestalt, Existential, Emotion Focused (EFT), Solution Focused, Trauma-informed/Trauma-focused, Positive Psychology, Sport Psychology, and Mindfulness & Acceptance among others.

Sports therapy and counseling focus on the specific psychological needs of athletes, targeting areas such as mental game preparation, focus and composure, and mental toughness to enhance performance and enjoyment in sports. Unlike general therapy, it includes personalized guidance and structured practices tailored to the pressures and demands unique to competitive sports.
Sports psychology is primarily concerned with the study and application of psychological principles to enhance athletic performance.
Sports therapy and counseling, while also concerned with performance, tend to have a broader focus on the athlete's overall well-being. This field often deals with mental health issues, personal development, and life balance in addition to performance-related concerns.
Insurance has drawbacks that we feel limit our ability to provide top-of-the-line services for our clients:
1. Privacy and Confidentiality: When insurance is involved, records of therapy must be reported to insurance companies, leading to a lack of privacy for clients who prefer to keep their mental health services confidential.
2. Full Control Over Our Services: We have the freedom to tailor services specifically to the needs of the client without being constrained by insurance company policies regarding session length, frequency, or types of services provided.
3. Avoidance of Pathologizing Clients: Insurance companies typically require a diagnosis for reimbursement. In sports therapy, the need to provide a diagnosis can be unnecessary or even counterproductive.
4. Flexibility in Treatment Plans: Our therapists can work with clients to determine the most appropriate length and course of treatment without being limited by insurance restrictions.
We work with athletes of all ages. We have services tailored for youth athletes who are in more devopmental stages of their lives; college athletes who have the added pressure of academics; and pro athletes of all ages who are dealing with the challenges of their sport as well as those of adult life.

Yes, our practice is equipped to provide specialized support to both teams and individual athletes. Our approach is versatile and adaptive, recognizing that the dynamics of team sports differ from the individual athlete's experience.

Our interventions are designed to optimize team culture, foster leadership, and ensure that every team member can thrive within the team environment.
