Athlete Mental Health Support That Works in Real Competition
We combine therapy for athletes with sports psychology techniques and mental training to help you:

Develop a stronger, more consistent mindset
Thru The Game is not generic mindset talk. It's structured, practical, and built for athletes, coaches and parents.
You’re not underperforming. You’re overloaded.
-
Performance anxiety in athletes shows up when it matters most
-
Confidence disappears even when preparation is there
-
Mental blocks stop skills you’ve done a thousand times
-
Pressure from coaches, parents, or expectations builds quietly
-
Burnout creeps in until the sport you love feels heavy
Most athletes are told to “push through it,” and that’s usually what ends up making it worse. Thru The Game can help.
You can train harder. Watch more film. Push through. But if your mind is working against you, none of it sticks. Anxiety in athletes, fear of failure, mental blocks, burnout — these aren’t side issues. They're the game for a lot of athletes. And most are left trying to figure it out alone.
Thru The Game is a Colorado-based company that provides therapy for athletes and mental health coaching that actually addresses what’s going on beneath the surface, so you can perform, compete, and enjoy the sport again.
The girls love working with you and we do too! It truly is a game changer, for so many reasons. It provides an extra bridge between us and allows our athletes to be more vulnerable with each other. The strategies you share to manage challenges in their lives, directly translate to our team dynamic and performance.
Kent Denver Field Hockey Coach, Emily Hazard
As a result of our sessions with TTG the boys are handling mistakes better and acknowledging that they are moments of growth, not failure. Last year these mistakes would hinder their performance but this year, they are bouncing back quicker and letting go.
Cherry Creek Boys Soccer Head Coach, Wilmer Barrera
TTG is giving our team a foundation to build upon throughout the season. The girls are learning how to feel empathy towards each other and their opponents. Each practice they “check-in” with one another regarding their stress levels. This has helped them realize that even if someone comes to practice with a smile on their face, inside they may be struggling. And that is bringing them so much closer which converts on the field.

Kathryn, thank you for coming over yesterday! Learning more about your work with our students is always super refreshing. I shared with the winter coaches yesterday that we are doing this work, and they are all excited to get going. I also shared with them that KDS is on your website and how much that meant to our program and me.
Kent Denver Athletic Director, Jeff Hollway
I feel confident that your work with the whole varsity team will be impactful! And I love that the athletes will see that this work is important for all of them...this is a team effort, not just an effort for those who are struggling!

“I fended for myself, and I turned out fine.”
Sound familar? Maybe you're rethinking this philosophy? Sure, the teenage years have always been challenging, but the fact is, today our kids are faced with more pressure than ever. Whether its exposure to harmful online content, real or perceived expectations, constant comparison, or divisive rhetoric reinforced with ever-increasing screen times — it’s all led to an epidemic of depression and anxiety in teens and children, and an increase in eating disorders and teen suicide.
