Testimonial: “Before working with Marilyn, I struggled to remain focused, rational, and compete with clarity. After just a few months of working with her I am able to stay present and composed in every match. Her work completely changed my mindset and has helped me gain confidence and trust in myself. I started working with Marilyn because I found myself struggling with self-doubt and criticism every time I played. My emotions used to get the best of me, and I knew that if I wanted to achieve my goals, I would need to change my mentality. With the work we have been doing, I’ve learned different strategies on how to cope with these thoughts and expectations I have for myself. Additionally, we have identified key mental areas that have improved my performance on court. The progress I’ve made with Marilyn has helped me achieve my goals and it has been a key component in my success.” ~ Matia Cristiani Babson Tennis Team Captain and Best female athlete of the year.
