My name is Matthew Smith.

I am a lifelong athlete and mental health professional with in depth training in the neurobiology and psychology of performance.

I help athletes get over their internal blocks so they can play with confidence, compete with purpose, and enjoy the journey.

What can a one-on-one coaching relationship do for you?

GROW AWARENESS

REWIRE YOUR MINDSET

UNLOCK TRUE POTENTIAL

Deep Performance Coaching

I am here to help you get exactly where you want to go - even if you don’t know where that is quite yet.

Our vehicle to discover and reach your dreamed-of-destination is a powerful one-on-one coaching relationship that uncovers your deepest fears, tracks down your most genuine desires, rewires your mindset for success, recovers the joy of performing, and takes significant steps towards becoming the athlete and person that only you can become.

My job is to help you uncover deep personal insights that give you a new experience of the game, competition, and yourself.

I work with athletes at every level in every sport who are deeply committed to their development and want to transform the way they approach competition.


Are you ready to play?

When “tough it out” and “suck it up” aren’t working anymore give me a call. You need a better strategy that values your mental fitness and equips you to excel.

I support athletes experiencing

  • Low or lost confidence

  • Recovery from setback or injury 

  • Nerves, yips, slump, yucks, drought, twisties, the “monster”

  • Perfectionism

  • Fatigue, burn-out

  • Loss of motivation

  • Over preparation 

  • Under-performance

  • Procrastination 

  • Life-sport imbalance 

  • Transition from one stage of career to another

  • Lack of identity outside of sports

Sound familiar? I’m here to help athletes just like you.

  • Working with Matt...

    is like having your own personal wizard. He listens so intently he can hear the fear behind the fear, and he can call out the dream behind the dream. He has helped me unlock inner strength and write an entirely new story overflowing with confidence.

    My game and my life will never be the same.”

  • Since starting my work...

    with Matthew I’ve made tremendous progress identifying how internal barriers surface not just in my thinking, but in my body as well. Through greater awareness in my physical body and golf swing, I’ve been able to cultivate new skills to rely on during competitive and high pressure scenarios.”

  • More than a coach!

    If you’re looking for cheap advice Matthew isn’t your guy. He brings his whole heart to the work, and his wisdom is evident. He has helped me grow confidence and become the athlete I know I can be!”
