Doc’s mental performance coaching has really elevated my game to the next level and it is something I will forever be grateful for. Learning how to respond to adversity has not only helped me as a baseball player, but as a person as well.

Having Kevin there to help me through this journey in my life is such a blessing. As a baseball player, having someone who sends you daily journals about the things you’re going through and how the mental side of baseball works is very important. As a pitcher who recently had Tommy John Surgery, I can say that Kevin is the best person I know that stays consistent with sending me daily journals. They have helped me so much on the mental side of baseball. Having Kevin around is a huge blessing for not only me but for anyone who loves the game of baseball.

I’ve been a softball mom for more than 17 years, with my girls from t-ball to college ball. Thousands of hours on drills and skills but almost nothing on the mental part of the game. Kevin began working with my daughter more than two years ago and the tools and strategies he’s taught her have greatly impacted her game, especially through those hard losses. But more than her game, it has changed how she is healing from a season ending injury. She is using those same tools through her rehab and recovery. These strategies have EMPOWERED her to CHOOSE her response to life events not to just react. I know these tools will aid her throughout her life. THAT has been the best part.
