Description

Lacrosse demands speed, precision, emotional control, and the ability to recover instantly from mistakes. As a coach, you see talented athletes crumble under pressure, lose confidence after turnovers, overthink their decisions, or tighten up in big moments—even when you know they have the skills to succeed.

For over 40 years, Dr. G has helped lacrosse players overcome performance blocks, fear, inconsistency, and hesitation—and has trained thousands of coaches on how to build mentally tough, emotionally steady, resilient competitors. Combining Dr. G’s legacy with Sara Vatore’s expertise in nervous system regulation and somatic performance, this package gives coaches a modern, science-backed system for developing athletes who can think clearly, recover quickly, and compete with confidence under pressure.

The Lacrosse Coaches Package teaches you exactly how to train the mental and physiological side of performance—so your athletes can execute with clarity, composure, and competitive resilience when it counts the most.

These are the same tools Dr. G and Sara have used to transform lacrosse athletes, teams, and entire programs across the country

The Bottom Line

You’ll learn exactly how to help your players recover from mistakes, compete with confidence, stay focused under pressure, and build the internal skills that lead to long-term consistency.

This is how you build lacrosse athletes who don’t just play hard—they play free, courageous, and fully present when it matters most.

Testimonials

A real breakthrough book for athletes! … I was able to put the breakthrough therapy of `brainspotting’ to immediate use with my clients and the results were spectacular! … The authors wrote this book so that athletes could also benefit. … I recommend this not just for therapists who work with athletes, but for athletes themselves!

Amazon Reviewer

Dr. G, I just finished reading This is Your Brain On Sports and I absolutely loved it! It opened my eyes to what really causes athletes to fall apart and it will help me be more effective with my players!

Frank

This is a GREAT tool to use with any sport parents. I had the parents…listen to it in one of our meetings and I couldn’t believe the response. It opened their eyes. Doc, you have such a great way of presenting things. Your humor makes parents willing to listen to all the things they’ve been doing wrong and what they need to do to change without getting defensive. Bless you

Ray B

Congratulations on your program, “14 Steps!” They are truly outstanding and thoroughly cover all the mental aspects of sports which are challenging to athletes and coaches. We are using them this year as part of our weekly training program and the kids love your stories and teachings!

Ken S.

I was listening to your “Parents” audio today on my drive and I have to say it opened my eyes! Especially the part where you talk about “good” and “bad” nervous. What a life skills gift to teach parents how to teach their kids how to roll with the “juice” that naturally comes up as you’re about to perform! The “Juice” is normal, it is what will fuel you. Don’t fear “The Juice” embrace it. Such a great audio! Thank you.

Wesley

My coaching staff listened to the audio with me and are all very excited, so excited in fact that we are hosting a workshop for parents. I shared the audio directly to a couple of parents. The response was so positive these parents have actually volunteered to participate in helping to run the parent workshop. They listened to the audio’s and consciously put into practice some of your parent guidelines. As a result, not only are they enjoying closer relationships with their children, but the kids are enjoying their sport again!

Tim

I just love your new book! Parents on my team were driving me nuts and making me really angry, getting in the way of me doing a decent job of coaching. This book has helped me get things in perspective and to recruit my parents to help me! I feel like I now have a much better understanding of where they’re coming from and how to effectively work with them. Thank you! Thank you! I won’t quit coaching after all!

John B

Thanks so much! I finally learned how to get my parents on the same page that I’m on. They’re actually helping me now! Go Figure! It has made things so much much easier for me to do my job. I think this is a critically important book for coaches in any sport.

Jack

Dr. G, You did a GREAT job with 14 Steps. I can’t tell you how much it has helped me relax and focus! My congrats and sincere thanks.

Gianluca

I have downloaded your 14 Steps to Mental Toughness and have been listening to them with my son. I must say that it is having a very positive impact on both of us!! We live in the UK where this type of science is not well known, but now I am persuaded by it! I am so grateful that I discovered your work as my son is only 17 so has plenty of time to benefit.

Mohammed

Your new program has really helped both of my kids even though they are in different sports! My daughter used to get too nervous before she played and she told me how much more relaxed and focused she feels now and I can see it in her level of confidence and success on the field. My son had a long history of doing better in practice than competition, leaving him frustrated and us not knowing how to help him. What a difference I see in him now when he competes under pressure. Thanks so much — you’re a great teacher!

CR – Parent

I want to let you know how much I enjoy and respect your series, “14 Steps.” I coach a small high school and your program not only helped my team play better under pressure, it significantly helped my 17 year old daughter who’s a three sport athlete. She used to think too much and get too nervous going into games. Now she plays the way she practices, relaxed and aggressively. Thanks for your product.

Gail

Amazing Book! Purchased this book for my husband and once he started reading the book, he couldn’t put it down. He said it was fascinating and so “spot on”. My husband played professional ball and my son is currently at a Div I college playing ball. My husband said that if he knew what this book speaks of back when he played pro ball, he would have had a longer pro career. Every athlete, coach, and parent (especially father) of an athlete will benefit from reading this book.

I’ve been coaching 20 years and this is one of the most versatile mental toughness training sets I’ve run across. It’s loaded with great exercises and stories that really work. I strongly recommend it to all my athletes.

Dr. Goldberg, I am taking my senior athletes step by step through your 14 Steps to Mental Toughness. It is wonderful. Repeat: WONDERFUL! Thanks,

Coaches told me that I think too much and that’s what’s holding me back! I never knew how to handle my thinking until I started working with 14 Steps. Now I’m able to quickly change the channel when the thoughts begin and my increased playing time is proof that your techniques really work!

Frank

I play D-1 lax and have always had problems letting my mistakes go in games. I’d get so angry at myself that I would screw up even more. Your training has helped me quickly leave my mistakes behind me! What a difference that has made in my confidence and play!

Jack

I bought your 14 Steps program for my daughter who plays lacrosse. She would get too nervous before her games and hang onto her mistakes! I have seen a dramatic turnaround in her game since and her confidence is up. Better yet, I am seeing my kid bounce back after a mistake!
