Does This Sound Familiar?

You train hard, but nerves take over when it's time to compete.
One mistake can derail the rest of your game.
You're confident in practice but struggle to trust yourself in competition.
You're incredibly hard on yourself when things don't go perfectly.
An injury, setback or transition has changed how you feel about yourself or your sport.
Or maybe what's going on isn't really about sport at all.

Whether you're looking for mental performance support or counselling, we'll start with what's happening for you and figure out what kind of support makes sense.

Mental Performance meets Mental Health

Athletes are people first.
Performance doesn't exist separately from mental health, relationships, school, work, identity and everything else happening in your life.
My background in both mental performance and counselling allows me to look beyond the scoreboard. We can work on confidence, pressure, focus and performance while keeping your overall well-being at the centre of the work.
Mental Health vs Mental Performance

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between mental performance coaching and counselling?
Mental performance and counselling can overlap, but they have different goals. Mental performance is focused on helping you perform at your best. We might work on confidence, focus, competition nerves, motivation, managing pressure, perfectionism, bouncing back from mistakes, goal setting, or developing routines that help you feel prepared to compete. You don't need to be struggling to benefit from mental performance training. Just like physical training, it's about developing skills you can practice and use when you need them.

​What is the cost?
As a Master of Counselling practicum student, I currently offer counselling at a reduced rate of $50 per 50-minute session.

What age athletes do you work with?
I work with youth as young as 8 and anyone above and beyond.

Do you offer virtual sessions?
Yes. Mental performance sessions are available virtually across Canada, as well as in Penticton, BC. Counselling is available in Penticton and virtually across British Columbia.

Do you have to be an athlete to work with Ashley?
No, you do not need to be an athlete to work with me.
