Barbara found herself seeking out mental game help in 2015 when she started struggling with ring stress when competing at the highest levels in Agility. She started to work with Mental Management Systems in Flower Mound, TX and used their system with great success for the next 8 years of her career. When retiring from competing in Agility in 2021 she decided to earn her certification to become a Mental Management coach which was completed in 2022. She is passionate about helping clients with goal setting and Self-Image training along with helping them learn how to “turn their nerves into Super Powers!”

She offers individual training sessions, webinars and in depth seminars all over the world.

2 Day Mental Management Seminar Info:

Mental Management is 80%-95% of any sport and the most under trained aspect of sports. Give yourself and your dog the most important gift you could give to your team and that is getting those pesky emotions under control. Come join us and let Barbara show you how!!!

Mental Management Camp

This 2-day camp is available to anyone who is new to the Mental Management system or wants a refresher course.

In this 2-day seminar Barbara will target the following things:

Mental Management Principles
Pressure Control Strategies
How to “Handle” Distractions
How to Change Self-Image to Improve Performance in the Ring

Day 2 we will set up a mock trial where we break down the Anticipation Phase, Action Phase, Reinforcement Phase. The first day will be lecture and the second day will be working with the dogs. On the second day we will focus on the anticipation phase and then run with reinforcement phase discussion after the run. You will also learn how to properly journal and how to properly self-praise.

This system can be used for any sport and Barbara has taught seminars focused on Agility, Obedience, Protection Sports, Nose Work, and Equestrian Sports to name a few.
