How We Work with Athletes
At The MindSide, we work with athletes from high school to professionals across all sports. Approximately 95% of our clients are golfers. Everything we do is developed specifically for each athlete and their needs in order to meet the athlete where they are and get to work.
To work with Carly, the initial appointment is one hour via FaceTime. You will complete an athlete questionnaire prior to the initial appointment so that Carly has a lot of background information on you and what's going on. You will leave the initial appointment with 2-3 specific things to implement with your game immediately. The cost for the initial appointment is $600.
We usually recommend working on the things discussed in the initial appointment for a week or two and then a representative from our office will reach out to see what you need moving forward. If you would like to continue working with Carly on an ongoing basis, just like you would any other coach, you would start our monthly Elite program where you would be scheduled for a 30-minute FaceTime appointment each month and have unlimited texting communication with Carly between those scheduled appointments. The texting is where you will get a lot of work done and is perfect for keeping Carly in the loop with how you are playing, how practice is going, or any questions that come up between appointments. The text can even be "hey, when you have a few minutes today, please give me a call." With this program, you have unlimited communication with Carly so that you can continue making progress throughout the month as well as the 30-minute FaceTime appointment scheduled in advance to help keep you on track with your program plan. This program is $450/month charged on the first of each month to your credit card and can be stopped at any time prior to the first of the month. We want to help you reach your performance goals as quickly as possible.
