Olivia Papakyrikos - A Crash Course on Identity and Self-Talk

This week I sat down with Olivia Papakyrikos to discuss a crash course in everything related to athlete identity and self-talk.  Olivia is a licensed mental health therapist and sport psychology consultant who helps athletes and high-performers strengthen their mental game and support their mental health. She has spent nearly a decade helping competitive athletes navigate pressure, confidence, identity, injury recovery, and the mental demands of high-performance sport. A former NCAA field hockey player herself, Olivia brings a personal understanding of what it means to compete, struggle, recover, and grow. Her practice, Papakyrikos Therapy & Performance, serves athletes and high-performers across Boston and beyond, with a focus on resilience, emotional regulation, body image, and sustainable performance.
