about us.
At ELITE MYND Performance LLC, we specialize in strengths-centric, evidence-based mental performance coaching that is rooted in the principles of positive psychology. Our innovative approach focuses on identifying, developing and leveraging character strengths to enhance athletic performance and overall well-being to ensure that athletes achieve their highest potential both on and off the field. By integrating cutting-edge psychological research with bespoke mental performance coaching strategies and interventions, we empower athletes and teams alike to excel through resilience, mental toughness, and personal growth.
Strengths-centric
Our coaching philosophy is built on the foundation of identifying and enhancing individual character strengths. Whilst more traditional "deficit-based" coaching typically centers on identifying and correcting athletes’ weaknesses, we believe that we can unlock an athlete's full potential by focusing on what athletes naturally do best. Our strengths-centric approach allows us to tailor our mental performance coaching to each athlete’s unique capabilities to foster resilience, confidence, and peak performance. By nurturing these inherent strengths, we help athletes not only excel in their sport but also develop essential life skills that contribute to their overall growth, success and well-being. Our commitment to spotting and building upon character strengths sets us apart and ensures that our athletes are always playing to their natural advantages.
Evidence-based
We are dedicated to using evidence-based or -inspired methods to ensure the highest standards of mental performance coaching excellence. Our strategies are grounded in rigorous scientific research and proven performance psychology principles. By relying on data and validated techniques, we provide our athletes with the most effective tools for mental and physical performance enhancement. This evidence-based approach ensures that our coaching is not only credible but also highly effective, leading to measurable improvements in athletic performance. We continuously update our methods based on the latest research, ensuring that our athletes benefit from cutting-edge advancements in performance psychology.
Innovative
Innovation is at the heart of ELITE MYND. Where thousandths of a second can mean the difference between a gold medal and a missed podium, we are constantly seeking new and creative ways to enhance our mental performance coaching methods to provide our athletes with a competitive edge. Our innovative approach includes the integration of advanced psychological techniques (including, but not limited to, character strengths), cutting-edge technology, and personalized mental performance coaching strategies and interventions. By staying ahead of industry trends and incorporating the latest advancements, we ensure that our athletes receive the most modern and effective training available. Our commitment to innovation means that we are always evolving, striving to find new ways to help our athletes achieve their highest potential.
Rooted in Positive Psychology
Our mental performance coaching is deeply rooted in the principles of positive psychology. Since the late 1990s, renowned psychologist, academic and thought-leader, Dr. Martin Seligman has advocated for a transformative approach to psychology known as "positive psychology" that focused on enhancing human strengths and well-being rather than the traditional emphasis on mental illness. We carry this torch to focus on promoting well-being, resilience, and optimal performance through the development of character strengths. Our holistic approach to mental performance coaching not only enhances athletic performance but also contributes to the overall happiness and well-being of our athletes to make ELITE MYND a one of a kind choice for athlete development.
