How We
Work
Recovery, performance, and daily life all run through the mind. When that part is off, everything else gets harder.
Our psychology and counselling team in Sherwood Park and Lethbridge supports athletes through the mental demands of rehab, return-to-sport, and competition. We also work with people managing stress, anxiety, depression, and past trauma. The approach is practical, structured, and built around your goals.
Treatments
Sport Psychology
Focused on the mental aspects of performance and injury recovery, sports psychology helps athletes build resilience, manage stress, and stay mentally prepared for every challenge.
Injury Rehabilitation Support
Recovering from injury is as much mental as physical. Our psychology team helps you stay motivated, manage setbacks, and maintain confidence throughout the rehab journey.
Performance Anxiety
From pre-game nerves to high-pressure situations, performance anxiety can impact any athlete. Our experts help you stay calm, focused, and ready to perform at your best.
Stress & Anxiety Management
For those facing stress, anxiety, or other mental health challenges, we offer tools and support to help you regain control, build coping skills, and find balance.
Psychology vs Counselling
The two services aren't the same, and knowing which one fits your situation saves you time.
Our Registered Psychologists, Katie Castle and Janelle Schultz, are regulated by the College of Alberta Psychologists. They complete graduate-level training, supervised clinical hours, and licensing exams. They are qualified to assess, diagnose, and treat mental health concerns.
Joshua Hoetmer (M.A., CMPC®, CT) offers counselling and mental performance support: mindset, confidence, injury recovery, stress, and life and sport transitions. Josh is not a Registered Psychologist. He doesn't diagnose or conduct formal assessments; his work is talk-based and performance-focused. Insurance coverage varies by plan.
