EMPOWER YOUR ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE: UNLEASHING YOUR POTENTIAL!

At Greta Cowles Consulting, we understand that reaching peak athletic performance goes beyond physical training. Our holistic approach to athletic motivational coaching focuses on empowering individuals to cultivate self-worth and confidence, essential elements for achieving success.

Through personalized coaching sessions, I work with athletes to identify and overcome mental barriers that may be hindering their performance. By developing a deep understanding of their values, strengths, and goals, athletes can harness their inner potential and unlock their true capabilities.

My coaching methods are designed to instill a sense of self-belief and resilience, allowing athletes to navigate challenges with confidence and determination. I emphasize the importance of positive self-talk, goal setting, and visualization techniques to enhance mental clarity and focus.

Moreover, I recognize the value of creating a supportive and nurturing environment where athletes can thrive. By fostering a culture of empowerment and encouragement, athletes can tap into their self-worth and translate it into tangible performance improvements.
Ultimately, my aim is to equip athletes with the mindset and emotional resilience needed to not only meet but surpass their performance targets. I believe that when individuals cultivate a strong sense of self-worth and confidence, they are better positioned to achieve sustainable success both on and off the field.
If you're ready to embark on a transformative journey towards unlocking your full potential, Gretchen Hentsch-Cowles is here to guide and support you every step of the way.

Let's work together to elevate your athletic performance and empower you to reach new heights of success.

In recent years, applied sport psychologists have become more open to “third wave therapies” that focus on the holistic promotion of human well-being. In this article, the potential application of body psychotherapy, Somatic Experiencing® (SE™), is presented within the sport context. SE™ focuses on resolving the symptoms of chronic stress and post-traumatic stress, among other things by directing the client’s attention to internal sensations, both visceral (interoception) and musculoskeletal (proprioception and kinesthesis) to resolve a dysfunctional state of the autonomic nervous system. The basic tenets of the SE™ framework are initially described with a short account of its effectiveness. Then, SE™ intervention context and ethical considerations are discussed, followed by a hypothetical example of its application with a judoka who experienced stress following an unexpected loss in a competition. Reflections and recommendations for practitioners are provided.
