MySportMind focuses on the mental and emotional aspects of sport. It is the interplay of these psychological factors within the context of sports which affect performance and ultimately one’s mental health.

MySportMind is a Coaching Practice which supports the idea of becoming a Centered Athlete. In order to perform well in sport, Athletes must have a Strong, Healthy Mind and the Insight to understand the interplay between one’s thoughts, emotions and physical body.

MySportMind is looking to help those athletes who already share these values; who seek support to realize their full potential, and who know that a commitment to a healthier mind, is not a magic bullet.

We are also looking to help Empower Athletes to be Strong Advocates for their own needs. Sports is big business and helping Athletes to have their own voice in their own performance, is at the center of this work.

MySportMind is located in Phoenix, Arizona.

Assessment

Your process begins with an assessment of your needs, motivations and goals. A recommendation is made using one of these approaches. Lyn Krahulec is uniquely talented and trained in both approaches.

Coaching

(Mental Performance)

As the Daughter of a Professional Hockey Player and Family Businessman, Lyn Krahulec grew up in a household which instilled the values learned by Sports and Family Commitment. She is a US Rowing Level II Certified Coach and also an accomplished International Masters Rower.

or

Counseling

(Traditional Clinical)

Those early lessons of self determination, hard work and perseverance have served her well in her own Professional Career as a Licensed Professional Counselor and College Educator. She has over 30 years of Clinical Experience in the Mental Health field. She holds a Masters in Counseling and a Masters in Education.

Working with Lyn has helped me to recover mentally, from a serious injury sustained from a bike crash in 2014 and helped me to qualify for the Rio Olympic Games. Her way to extract the best of me, is amazing. She understands what I am really feeling because she herself is an athlete; this is something I have not found in my 20 years as a High Performance Trained Rower and I have worked with other Sports Psychologists.

Nowadays, she is helping me to maximize my options to try again for Tokyo 2020- combining my sport life with my real life: two boys - a three year old and a one year old; my work as a Physiotherapist/Osteopath and Husband!
Thank you, Lyn."

It’s awesome having a person who understands what your feeling in the stressful situations, required by High Performance Sport. Working with Lyn it’s brilliant, because she doesn’t just give you the key. Instead she helps you formulate the proper questions in order to find your own answers. For me, this process is the most important, because most times when I formulate the questions, I already have the answers but stress and confusion can blind me from recognizing what I already know. This process and her trust - makes the path clear. Smile - it’s Easy!"

Coach Krahulec is focused on the individual. One of the first things we did was go over my goals as an athlete and it was with these goals in mind that she trained and mentored me. She helped me work through my specific struggles and come up with strategies to overcome these difficulties, whether it was improving my fitness or thinking about the stroke in a different way.

With regards to recruiting, I knew absolutely nothing about the process. Coach Krahulec was not only able to guide me through this process, but was also able to position me in order to be Recruited to a Division 1, Ivy League Rowing Program."

Working with Lyn has totally changed the way that I think about the game. It’s made me better as a player, both mentally and physically."

– AAA elite05 Hockey Player, a MySportMind client

As an athlete taking a huge step towards a new and exciting chapter in my athletic career, I could not be more thankful to have Coach Lyn on my team. She has generously offered her time to provide me with detailed instruction and feedback while answering all my questions. Most of our communication utilized video feedback and was done remotely, I was able to progress successfully as if I were able to meet her in person. I am forever grateful knowing I can refer to her any time and she will be there in full support."
