For a decade, we have successfully worked with athletes, parents, and coaches to provide solutions to questions like: Do you want to take control of your confidence, learn how to focus, and develop a consistent performance? Are you in a slump, or want to prevent a long slump? Do you get too nervous before games, or lose yourself in the emotional storms of your mind?

“Elliott, I am actually looking forward to my competition this week! I never would have said that last season”.


Hey athletes, want to bring the joy and raw passion back in to your game?

Listen up.

University of California psychologist, Sonja Lyubomirsky, described six steps toward a more satisfying life:
  • One = Count your blessings, using a “gratitude journal”.
  • Two = Practice acts of kindness, both random and systematic.
  • Three = Savor life’s joys.
  • Four = Thank a mentor.
  • Five = Learn to forgive.
  • Six = Invest time and energy in friends and family.
Yes, this list is easy to read and more difficult to actually apply. And yes, this list may seem general. But with a little extra help from a knowledgeable sport performance consultant it will get you on the right track. Call Elliott Waksman, MA today to learn how to apply concepts within the field of POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGY to your sport mental game. Again, want to bring the joy and raw passion back in to your game? The answer may be positive psychology.
