Helping Athletes Perform with Confidence, Resilience, and Purpose

Hi, I'm Tabetha Johnson, M.A., a Sport and Mental Performance Coach, college educator, and yoga teacher. Through Resilience Lab, I work with athletes, performers, coaches, and teams throughout the Inland Empire and Riverside communities to strengthen the mental side of performance.

Whether you're preparing for competition, working through a performance slump, returning from injury, or simply wanting to perform with greater confidence and consistency, my goal is to help you develop the mental skills that allow your physical abilities to shine.

For more than ten years, I've taught yoga at Crafton Hills College, where I've been passionate about making mindfulness and movement accessible to students of every background and ability. That experience naturally led me into mental performance coaching, where many of the same principles—focus, emotional regulation, resilience, self-awareness, and intentional action—help athletes perform at their best.

I've had the privilege of working with athletes in baseball, water polo, track and field, cross country, swimming and diving, gymnastics, cycling, and other performance settings. Every athlete is different, which is why I don't believe in one-size-fits-all coaching.

My approach begins with listening.

I take the time to understand your experiences, your goals, and the unique challenges standing between where you are and where you want to be. From there, I combine research-backed mental performance strategies with practical tools you can immediately begin using in practice, competition, school, work, and everyday life.

My goal isn't simply to teach techniques. It's to help you experience meaningful, lasting change—the kind that shows up as greater confidence, clearer focus, better emotional control, stronger motivation, and more consistent performance when the pressure is on.

I commonly help athletes and performers strengthen:

  • Motivation and commitment

  • Confidence and self-belief

  • Positive and productive self-talk

  • Emotional regulation

  • Focus and concentration

  • Resilience after mistakes and setbacks

  • Performing consistently under pressure

Mental performance is about more than winning. It's about becoming the kind of person who responds to challenges with confidence, composure, and resilience—both in competition and in everyday life.

If you're ready to strengthen your mental game, I'd love to learn more about your goals and explore how we can work together.
