Meet Alison

Alison Soelter
M.S., CMPC, NASM - CSNC

​

As a Certified Mental Performance Consultant® (CMPC) through the Association for Applied Sport Psychology, Alison combines evidence-based mental performance with nearly three decades of experience as an athlete, coach, and educator. She holds both a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Science in Kinesiology and has spent more than a decade coaching high school swimming and diving while providing individualized mental performance coaching to athletes across multiple sports.

​

To further support the athletes and families she serves, Alison is also a Certified Sport Nutrition Coach (CSNC) through the National Academy for Sports Medicine. She believes the mind and body cannot be separated when it comes to performance. Proper fueling supports not only physical performance and recovery, but also concentration, decision-making, emotional regulation, and learning. By combining mental performance strategies with practical nutrition education, Alison helps athletes develop sustainable habits that support both performance and overall well-being.

​

Alison's perspective is shaped not only by her education and professional training, but also by her own experiences as a high-level athlete. She qualified for the U.S. Olympic Team Trials while still in high school, finished 22nd overall at the 2004 Olympic Trials, and continued competing nationally through 2011. She also competed at the University of Texas, where she was a four-year conference team member and  2008 NCAA Division I team member.

​

Having experienced the excitement of success, the disappointment of setbacks, and the pressure that accompanies high-level competition, Alison understands that every athlete's journey includes challenges. Those experiences allow her to connect with athletes and families from a place of both professional expertise and personal understanding.​

​

For families who desire it, Alison offers the opportunity to integrate a faith-based, holistic perspective into mental performance training. Her approach is always individualized, meeting each athlete where they are while respecting the family's goals, beliefs, and values.

​

Above all, Alison believes every athlete deserves to enjoy their sport while pursuing excellence. Her mission is to help young athletes build confidence, overcome mental barriers, develop healthy performance habits, and discover that their worth extends far beyond a scoreboard, stopwatch, or result.
