Psychological Counseling for Athletes

Support for the Whole Person, Not Just the Player

Being an athlete today comes with more pressure than ever. Dr. John F. Murray offers professional psychological counseling tailored to the unique needs of athletes, helping them develop emotional strength, mental clarity, and confidence at all stages of life. 

Why Athletes Need Counseling ?

While mental training helps athletes stay focused and perform under pressure, psychological counseling supports everything that happens beyond the game. 

Common challenges include:

  • Performance anxiety before competitions
  • Low confidence after a mistake or injury
  • Overwhelming pressure to win or get recruited
  • Balancing personal and and social life
  • Family or friendship issues affecting focus

Counseling gives athletes a safe, supportive space to talk about what you’re going through and learn healthy ways to cope and grow.

Why Work with Dr. John F. Murray?

Dr. Murray is a licensed psychologist with decades of experience helping athletes thrive. Unlike many “mental coaches,” he is fully trained in both clinical psychology and sports psychology, meaning he can help with emotional challenges and performance goals.


He’s worked with athletes in:

  • Tennis
  • Golf
  • Basketball
  • Soccer
  • Swimming & Diving
    …and many other sports.


Whether you are trying to overcome self-doubt, bounce back from an injury, or just navigate the emotional ups and downs of sports, Dr. Murray offers expert support every step of the way.
