C.H.O.I.C.E.S 4U Approach

Catch • Check • Change

Catch

Begin to recognize negative, irrational, or intrusive thoughts as they happen. Begin to believe in your ability to influence your life and reactions, (stop being a passive bystander in your life). Begin to focus on what you can control and owe it.
RESULT – Begin to interact with empathy and gentleness.

Change

Begin to replace negative thoughts with more helpful and realistic ones. Begin to identify difficulties as opportunities for growth not as threats. Begin to soothe the body and mind with self-compassion.
RESULT – Begin to be authentically vulnerable and willing to engage in difficult conversations

Check

Begin to evaluate the thoughts for accuracy and usefulness. Begin to center yourself in facts rather than “what ifs.” Begin to be attentive and purposeful to life, work and relationships.
RESULT – Begin to listen in order to understand the individual and not be consumed with responding.

Services Package

This proposal outlines a customized mental health and neurocognitive service package tailored for elite professional athletes. The goal is to support overall mental wellness, improve cognitive performance, and manage any clinical concerns that may impact athletes both on and off the field or the court. Services are confidential, evidence-based, and designed to align with the team’s peak performance goals.

Executive package per player

This package is for busy professionals who desire a private mental health evaluation but are unsure of committing to ongoing concierge care.

Initial Psychiatric Evaluation

  • (120 mins) – online or in person, with a goal of identifying your pain points, while beginning to develop a therapeutic relationship, with the primary guiding tenet is getting to know you as a person and not your symptoms.
  • Anxiety, Mood disorder, Psychosis and Substance Use Disorders.
  • Safety Plan Development
  • Review and Feedback Session with Player (and another if so requested)
  • Review of Patient Centered Care Plan

Custom Add-On Services:

  • Medication Management (Ongoing or As-Needed) 
  • Neurocognitive testing which efficiently and objectively assess a broad spectrum of brain function performance or domains under challenge.
    • Detect and track cognitive impairments
    • Provide information on cognitive domains
    • Establish a neurocognitive baseline
    • Monitor, evaluate and management clinical endpoints
    • Identify domains needing additional or full neuropsychological evaluations
  • Therapy Referrals
  • Annual Reassessment & Progress Tracking 
  • Crises Intervention Support

Deliverables

  • Individualized Recommendations (player and team-use versions)
  • Summary of Population-Level Findings (anonymous, aggregate)

Timeline & Execution Strategy

  • Phase 1: Initial Assessments (1 Month)
  • Phase 2: Ongoing Medication Management & Support (2 Months after initial assessment)
  • Phase 3: Reassessment and Program Refinement (3 Months later)

Scheduling and delivery can be adapted around practice schedules, travel, and competitive windows. Virtual and in-person sessions are available.

Conclusion

I am excited about the opportunity to support players in leading the league not only in athletic achievement but also in mental resilience and psychological health. This customized mental health and neurocognitive support model is designed to be proactive, confidential, and empowering.

I welcome a conversation to fine-tune this proposal to meet the team’s evolving needs. Please contact Carolyn Harris-Muchell at dragon@chmyoufirst.com or 510-501-1215 to move forward.
