Dr. Blakely

Licensed Counseling & Sport Psychologist

My Approach

Welcome! In my years of work as a sport psychologist, I have found people perform at their best when they have a rich understanding of who they are, both as a person and as a performer. Elite performers also have the ability to manage challenges and stressors that occur in their performance environment. To perform at their best, people need a space to reflect where they feel truly seen and heard as a whole person. My style as a psychologist is warm and engaging, while also being direct. I work to build a strong connection with you, and I commit to telling you what you need to know! We will work together to increase self-awareness, remove performance barriers, and enhance your experience of living and competing in your arena.

Softball is a sport with an increasingly high rate of failure, so having access to someone as skilled and talented as Blakely was a huge asset for our program. Her ability to almost instantaneously create a safe and comfortable space helped set the stage for tremendous growth. Blakely met our athletes and coaches where they were, while cultivating deeply meaningful and trustworthy relationships. She provided personalized solutions that helped our athletes cope with the many pressures that come from being an elite level student-athlete as well as overcome mistakes and failures that are inevitably part of the sport. Having competed at a high level herself in combination with her easy nature, our athletes were drawn to her and quickly bought in to the exercises she would take them through ultimately providing them with increased confidence, mental toughness, the ability to work through stress and anxiety, and also transferring successful training into competition. When we lost Blakely to another position we never lost the relationship that she built, which is a huge statement to her commitment to the success of the athletes, coaches and programs that are so lucky to work with her.
