A Bit About Terri Turner…

As a former professional athlete, I know that nothing is more discouraging than being held back from your best performance due to a lack of confidence and motivation, distracting thoughts, or unexpected obstacles and setbacks.

I am a certified Mental Performance Consultant & Lifestyle Wellness Consultant. I help individuals of all professions, ages, and levels develop mental training skills to maximize performance and reach their fullest potential. I have been working in the health and wellness industry for 20 years with a master’s degree in Exercise Science & Health Promotion, a Post-Graduate Certificate in Sport Psychology, and several additional certificates including Lifestyle and Wellness Coach, Prenatal and Postnatal Fitness Expert, and Youth Fitness Specialists.

I help my clients choose and maintain a positive attitude, increase confidence, maintain a high level of self-motivation, set high and realistic goals, manage anxiety, regulate emotions, use mental imagery, and maintain focus.

I take a holistic approach to performance and look at all aspects of the individual to help them overcome barriers that are inhibiting them from reaching their fullest potential.  I want you to learn how to succeed and live a fulfilling life, regardless of what hurdles you may be facing.

By offering an evidence-based practice, I will be here to give you help and education to assist you in reaching your next level, whatever your field may be.
