Helping pivot
your mental game
Pivot (verb): to adapt or improve by adjusting or modifying something
​
Sometimes we need to pivot our ways of thinking, feeling, and doing. Sometimes, our pivots will be big and have us going in a very new direction; sometimes, the pivots will be smaller and have us making less noticeable but still significant changes.
At Pivot, we help you identify where to make those pivots and give you tools to effectively practice them so your performance is more consistent.
Dr. Stephanie Huskey, CMPC
Owner & Mental Performance Coach
As a Certified Mental Performance Consultant ®, I have worked with athletes, coaches, teams, and business professionals. Some have been youths just starting their competitive sports journey; others have been working toward professional sports. I’ve worked with athletes in softball, baseball, basketball, soccer, volleyball, lacrosse, weightlifting, martial arts, e-sports, and winter sports. My work with these performers has focused on self-confidence, performance anxiety, plateaus in work or motivation, energy management, emotional agility, physical relaxation, and returning to play after injuries. I use a combination of coaching and instructional techniques to help performers improve their mental game, practice mental training more effectively and consistently, and enhance their self-belief.
​
In addition to mental performance coaching, I am a professor of exercise science. I have an M.S. in sport psychology and a Ph.D. in health psychology. I have a background in martial arts, have a 6th degree black belt. I am a registered mentor through Association for Applied Sport Psychology (AASP) for individuals seeking the CMPC.

Coaching Types
At Pivot Sport Psychology Consulting, we will work together to help you find places where your mental game needs to pivot. You will learn how to steadily make those changes so that your mental game is more grounded yet mobile (like a pivot) and your overall performance improves. The process of mental performance coaching is highly interactive regardless of the type of pivoting you decide to try. You can expect to learn new terms and skills and will have exercises to try the new approaches you learn.
Private Coaching
Private sessions focusing on your specific goals, challenges, strengths, resources, and performances. We meet weekly for 6-8 weeks as we adjust your mental game. After that, you can continue regular coaching through various memberships.
Workshops
Join live workshops on specific topics to learn, apply, and practice the skill in small groups. Ask us to do a workshop for your sports team, club, organization, or business.
Team Coaching
Get mental coaching for your entire team. Focus on the function and interactions of the team, mindsets relevant to high performance, or work to transform your group to a team.
