Marvin Zauderer

In my sport performance coaching practice, I work with athletes, coaches, and teams from a wide variety of sports on the mental skills needed for success.

I'm a longtime athlete and sports fan. I grew up playing Little League baseball, AYSO soccer, playground basketball and football, skateboarding, skiing, challenge-ladder tennis, raquetball, and cycling. I began subscribing to Sports Illustrated magazine at the age of 13.

I'm a licensed psychotherapist, and have 10 years of experience working with adults, adolescents, young children, couples, and families on a wide range of psychology issues. I've coached girls softball, am a USA Cycling Level 2 coach, and compete as a Masters cyclist. I'm a member of the Positive Coaching Alliance, the Association of Applied Sport Psychology, the American Association of Cycling Team Doctors, and the the Califo ia Association of Marriage and Family Therapists.

Before becoming a therapist, counselor, and coach, I had a successful 20-year career in high technology, where I particularly enjoyed managing and coaching people on my teams.

I have graduate degrees from Stanford University and Dominican University, and an undergraduate degree from UC Berkeley.

I'm married to an equestrian, and have begun taking riding lessons myself. I guess it's never too late!
