Dr. Justin Ross' areas of expertise include:

He uses cognitive behavioral therapy, performance psychology, and mindfulness training to help athletes improve their inner self-talk and develop the mental skills to lead more productive and successful athletic lives.

  • The most important psychological skills for endurance runners
