 FAQs

  • Our rate for individual therapy sessions is $205.00 and we offer a sliding scale fee to some clients.

  • We are not in-network with any insurance providers. We do provide superbills at the end of each session for each client to have the ability to submit to their health insurance providers to receive reimbursement from their respective health insurance companies for out of network mental health/behavioral health benefits.

  • No. While we are a referral source in the Sport Medicine community, we do not require a referral or current mental health diagnosis to be seen by our sport psychologists or mental performance consultants.

    We recommend that individuals with serious mental health concerns or experiencing severe symptoms seek immediate care from health care providers in their area.

  • Our sessions are tailored to each individual, so sessions will vary based on the presenting issues and disposition of the client. That said, our ambitions in one-on-one sessions remain largely the same: to understand the client’s goals, and the impediments to those goals. Once those understandings are in place, we will work with the individual to address, accept, or remove the impediments, and create a pathway to optimizing performance and achieving the goal.

  • While “sport psychology” is the name given to the field, the origin and aim of all sport psychology is more accurately described as “the psychology of performance,” or the mental operations behind all performance. The tools used in sport psychology sessions apply as naturally to performing in the classroom, the board room, the operating room, and on the stage as they do to field, rink, court, or mat. We’re building skills to perform better as people, not merely as athletes.

  • Anyone who wants to do something better. We perform in all areas of our lives. We perform as athletes, as students, as professionals, as colleagues, friends, parents and children. Sport psychology (or more accurately “performance psychology”) provides an understanding of who we are, what we think, and what we do when we are at our best, and builds skills that allow us to more consistently bring the best of ourselves to everything we do.

  • Our one-on-one sessions are suitable to individuals of all ages. Our current clients range in age from young athletes in their early grade school years to enthusiasts well into their retirement.

  • Yes. BrykMinds serves athletes, teams, and sport organizations. For more information on our team services click here.
