What People Are Already Saying

"Mental health and training are such a valuable part of an athlete's success"

Mental health and training are such a valuable part of an athlete's success. It has been neglected or just touched on for so many athletes. As a former Division I head coach we worked on mental training, making it a consistent part of building confidence, performing under stress, and finding a positive voice for each athlete.

During my time at Seattle University Shauna Sheppard played a big role in helping us develop and maintain mental training and mental health as part of our program. Shauna is a true professional, who loves athletes and is skilled through her education and experience in helping individuals and teams understand the positive impact mental training can provide.

I strongly recommend working with Shauna Sheppard and her team. They will help you succeed.

"Coach Shauna didn't just coach me—she challenged me"

When I initially left my first volleyball club, I felt uncertain about my place in the sport—that changed when I met Coach Shauna. She helped me build resilience and mental toughness, skills that go far beyond the court.

Those early lessons became even more important when I began the college recruitment process. The work ethic Coach Shauna instilled in me is what set me apart in conversations with coaches.
