I'm Alyssa - a mental performance coach for golfers who are tired of getting in their own way.

I know firsthand what it's like to love the game and struggle with it at the same time. To practice for hours and hit it great on the range, only to tighten up when it matters most. To be so hard on yourself that golf stops being fun and starts feeling like a battle against your own mind.

After playing D1 golf and earning my Master's degree in sport psychology, I've gone on to work with hundreds of golfers ranging from top juniors to college players to ambitious amateurs and professionals, helping them build the mental skills to play with genuine confidence, freedom, and trust.

Because at the end of the day, golf is hard. But it doesn't have to feel like you are constantly fighting against yourself.

My Approach

My passion is helping golfers play to their potential, enjoy the game and the process of competing, and thrive both on and off the course.

I know there is no 1-size-fits-all solution when it comes to the mental game. My science-backed approach focuses on helping golfers shift their relationship with thoughts and feelings, play to their strengths, and develop personalized strategies so that they can play WITH doubt, pressure, fear, anxiety, and discomfort. Feelings that are completely normal, but don't have to control you.

Together we will develop personalized strategies to help you play to your strengths and bring your best and most present self to the course each day...no matter what a round may bring.

If you're someone who:

Plays well in practice but struggles in competition
Gets in your own head and can't seem to get out
Feels stuck in perfectionism, fear of failure, or performance anxiety
Knows the mental game is holding you back, but doesn't know how to change it

You are not alone, and I'd love to help!

I’ve been there.

So if you see yourself in these know you are not alone.

I see this pattern in a lot of golfers and lived it myself as a D1 player

And what helped me was being able to see it not as my identity, but as a pattern I experienced.

A pattern that in part got me very far, and in some ways held me back

You don’t have to stop being driven or caring about your game.

You just have to learn how to:
→ Notice your inner critic without believing everything it says
→ Let go of what you can’t control
→ Define success beyond just your score
→ Play with freedom, commitment, and presence instead of fear

That’s the work. And it changes everything.

This shift can be so powerful, for golf and for life

“have to, need to, should” can create pressure, obligation, and feeling stuck

“choose to, want to, get to” can create purpose, ownership, and freedom

What do you notice about the language you use on the golf course? Is it helpful or unhelpful?

p.s. I’m Alyssa, a former D1 golfer with a masters degree in sport psychology sharing what I wish I learned sooner about the mental game and helping golfers go from stuck to free, believe in themselves, trust their game, and play with joy.

I was stuck waiting…

Waiting for the next milestone in my golf game or in my life.

Waiting for the progress that would finally change how I felt about myself, my abilities, and what I thought I was capable of.

But here’s what I was really doing: I was deciding I wasn’t worthy of happiness now. That happiness was something I had to earn through achievements.

Which put me on a never-ending treadmill where the goalposts were always moving, and left me with a lot of frustration and self-doubt.

And then I finally realized…

Happiness wasn’t something I was worthy of experiencing only when everything was perfect.

And what really makes things worthwhile is knowing the struggle, the doubt, the fear, and showing up for yourself and continuing on anyway.

Golf is a game of perpetual highs and lows, failures and frustrations, and progress and growth.

If you are always waiting for that next milestone, you’ll miss out on all there is to appreciate about where you are right now

For so long I let my thoughts push me around

I wasn’t ready…

I didn’t felt confident enough…

I needed more experience…

Maybe it just wasn’t meant for me…

I’ll never catch up, everyone else is luckier, has been doing this longer, or just picks it up quicker…

But as I waited around for certainty of safety and success that would never come, I kept myself from the very experiences that would help me build evidence and see that I could take action and be okay

And from seeing that failure is the price of meaningful growth and mistakes are how you learn

You can want things to be perfect and be willing to make mistakes and you can feel fear and go for it anyway

What actions would the version of you that you strive to be take?
