Testimonial from E

“Barb is so easy to connect with. She is attentive, present, and ever encouraging. Her genuine, practical and positive approach will leave you feeling uplifted and confident.“
Parent of AAA Hockey Player

“We have noticed an incredible improvement in our son’s mood and attitude since starting mental performance work with Barb. He took the initiative to reach out on his own, which speaks to how supported and confident he feels. We’ve also seen a clear jump in his hockey performance, including earning power-play time and playing with more confidence and composure. He’s thriving both on the ice and in the classroom. We’re so grateful for the care, flexibility, and encouragement.”
— Parent of AAA Athlete

Barb’s mental training techniques were a game-changer for me. I learned practical strategies to visualize, gain confidence, be more consistent, and improve my on-ice performance.
High-Performance Hockey Player

Working with Barb has been instrumental in my performance and my overall enjoyment of my sport. I truly felt like a different player. I was poised, confident, and played free. Her support helped me unlock a new level in both my game and my mindset.”
Testimonial from Global Congress of Sport at Baylor University from an NCAA Athletic Director

“Barbara brought an incredible balance of authenticity and expertise to Baylor University. Her ability to connect with student-athletes through lived NCAA experience as an athlete and coach at The Ohio State University, while also delivering practical performance tools, made her talk one of the most impactful of the year for our coaches and athletes! We have continued to bring her in to work with our teams and athletes since.”

-Testimonial from Global Congress of Sport at Baylor University from NCAA Division-1 Head Coach
Parent of a competitive athlete

“Working with Barb has made a world of difference for our daughter, both on and off the ice. For the first time in months, we saw her genuinely having fun during a game—laughing, taking creative risks, and playing with a new sense of confidence. Even though she’s still navigating negative comments from peers, she’s now able to let them roll off her back. The change in her mindset has been incredible to witness, and it’s clear that the support and tools she’s gained through this work are making a lasting impact. We’re so grateful.”

Teen athlete testimonial

My 16 year old daughter has been struggling with the mental game of her sport, perfectionism, anxiety , and dealing with disappointments. After one session she seems more at peace and has things to work on for the future! We have a game plan and it’s amazing! Especially coming from someone who’s been in her shoes and understands the stress that goes along with high level sports! Thank you, Barb!
Provincial Champions Hockey Teams

“Barb’s impact on our team this season has been nothing short of incredible. As a championship-winning athlete, coach, and mentor, she brought a wealth of experience, but it was her ability to connect with our players and strengthen their mental game that truly set her apart from her lived personal and professional experience. Her guidance helped us build confidence, stay focused under pressure, and play with resilience when it mattered most. More than that, she was a mentor—someone who inspired and believed in us, both on and off the ice. The tools she taught us went beyond hockey—they shaped us as athletes and individuals. We are so grateful for Barb’s leadership, wisdom, and unwavering support in helping us achieve our goal of winning provincials!”
Teen Hockey Client

I wanted to write and say thank you! After a few sessions with you, she seems so much happier again and when she steps on the ice, her confidence has definitely improved. There’s no crying after games or practices anymore (some frustration, yes, but crying and blaming herself, no). I can see improvement in her each time she talks to you and with post season, tryouts, and district development camp tryouts coming up, I know she’s feeling pressure. She’s always so much lighter and happier after chatting with you and I wanted to say thank you so much. It’s been such a big improvement!
