What Is Specialized Psychiatry for Athletes?

Athletes at any level face unique pressures that can affect their mental well-being, from performance anxiety to the stress of maintaining peak physical condition. Our sports psychiatry services address these issues and more, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, and trauma-related disorders, all with the unique needs of athletes in mind. Led by Dr. Esmaili, our experienced team provides personalized care to help you find balance.

Medication Management in Combination With Sports Psychiatry

Medication management is a vital part of any psychiatry approach, but this can be difficult when it comes to treating athletes. When medication is indicated for clients of the Mental Fitness Clinic, we take a careful, personalized approach to ensure that any prescription supports, rather than hinders, athletic performance. We focus on:

  • Choosing medications that have minimal side effects on physical performance
  • Ensuring that any prescribed medications are safe and approved for use in sports
  • Monitoring for medications that may be banned by sports organizations, such as the NCAA, while advising on how to use exemptions where necessary

We consider all factors affecting the individual, from medical issues to family dynamics and life stressors, and always use the lowest effective dose of medication whenever possible.
