About me

Hi! My name is Katey Kotre, and I am a Mental Performance Consultant. As a former NCAA Division II soccer player, my own experiences with injury, pressure, and the challenges that come with competing at a high level led me to ask an important question: Why was I struggling in these moments, and what could I do differently?

Those experiences, along with my faith and passion for sport, ultimately led me to pursue my M.S. in Sport and Exercise Psychology at the University of Kentucky. I have been blessed with the opportunity to work with athletes across a variety of levels, including youth, collegiate, and semi-professional.

OUR MISSION

To help athletes navigate and address the challenges that come with sport, from playing under pressure and building confidence to maintaining motivation, focus, and resilience.

By equipping athletes with practical mental skills, I will prepare them to conquer their obstacles, perform with greater confidence, and develop skills that support their growth both on and off the playing field.

Testimonials

  • “I carry the tools & perspectives she gave”

    “I am grateful I had the opportunity to work with Katey. As a division 1 athlete, there can be a lot of performance pressure, personal pressure, and having to balance different stressors. Katey is a great listener and has the ability to see her patients holistically. She gave me tools to help me work through my perspective on performance and how to handle pressures that come with college athletics. I carry the tools and perspectives she gave me and have seen so much growth in my mental and physical performance. I would highly recommend working with her if you are looking for someone who is genuine and has the tools to help you grow your confidence, calmness, and perspective.”

    — Division I Golfer

  • "I saw big improvement in my mentality"

    I worked with Katey before and throughout my most recent athletic season, and the difference was significant. I saw big improvement in my mentality working with her and it always felt like she genuinely cared and listened. I realized my mental game needed to match the level of my athletic ability before I could get better, and Katey helped give me the tools and confidence to make that happen.

    — Division I Track Athlete

  • "My confidence has improved so much"

    “I have been playing soccer for about 7 years and I was very confident until I hurt my knee when i was 12. When I hurt my knee I lost a lot of my confidence so I started seeing Katey and she helped me tremendously. I've been seeing her for over a year now and my confidence has improved so much as well as my inner thoughts. I've learned that what I can control is my inner thoughts, my effort and my attitude, only I can control how I talk to myself, how I act and talk towards others, and how I receive feedback from coaches and teammates. She has coached me before games and practices to hype me up or calm me down and how to get into the right head space before a game or practice multiple times. I would definitely recommend her!”

FAQs

  • The development of psychological skills and tools to support peak performance and personal growth.

  • No. Mental performance is not the same as mental health. Mental performance covers topics within performance-based contexts and skills. Mental health covers clinical, generalized concerns and disorders that extend beyond performance settings. When an athlete's needs reach beyond the scope of mental performance, I will help connect them with the appropriate mental health professional.
