the mind behind the mission.
Altius exists to help athletes, coaches, and leaders master the inner game — not through hype or hustle, but through mindset training, honest conversation, and a human-first approach to performance.
Because greatness isn’t just about grinding harder.
It’s about knowing who you are under pressure — and showing up fully anyway.
The word Altius comes from Latin, meaning “higher” — but to us, it’s more than elevation. It’s about rising beyond outcome, status, or titles.
At Altius, we believe high performance starts from within.
That means building focus, self-awareness, and clarity under pressure — but also being honest about the parts of sport and life that don’t make the highlight reel.
Whether you’re on the podium, navigating a comeback, or leading others, we help you access the mindset that supports sustainable, high-level growth — without sacrificing who you are.
altius (latin):
higher. deeper. beyond.

HI, I’M CAITLIN — MENTAL PERFORMANCE COACH & FORMER D1 LACROSSE PLAYER
Hi, I’m Caitlin — Mental Performance Coach & former Division I lacrosse player.
I built Altius Mind & Performance because I’ve lived both sides of the game.
As an athlete, I was taught to chase toughness, outcomes, and "mental grit." As a coach, I’ve seen what happens when performers push through pain without ever asking what’s underneath it.
I hold a Master’s in Sport, Exercise, and Performance Psychology from Barry University and have worked with a wide range of athletes, coaches, and leaders — from high school teams to elite competitors — to develop the mental framework needed to perform and lead with intention.
One example? In my first season working with the Lucy Beckham Lacrosse Team, the program not only reached the State Championship — they won it. That kind of result doesn't happen by chance. It happens when culture, clarity, and mindset align.
Now, I help athletes and high-performers train the mental side of their craft — not just for results, but for resilience, self-awareness, and longevity. I combine science-backed tools with real conversations and lived experience. This isn’t about toxic toughness or vague motivation — it’s about building something real inside.
I don’t offer therapy or clinical mental health services — but I deeply value them, and I’ll always advocate for the professionals who do. At Altius, we believe in support, not stigma.
Whether you're on the podium, in the locker room, or finding your way back to the sport you love — this work is for you.
OUR CORE BELIEFS.
-
You’re more than stats, roles, or results.
-
Just like strength, focus and confidence can be built.
-
It’s information — and sometimes it’s the beginning of growth.
-
True high performance is supported.
Altius Mind & Performance does not offer clinical mental health treatment, therapy, or crisis support. But we stand firmly for mental health and regularly refer clients to licensed professionals when deeper care is needed.
If you’re struggling, help is out there — and we’re always here to support you in finding it.
