Dr. Cassidy has been unreal the last year working with me! Playing professional sports can be a rollercoaster and he's helped keep my mindset strong through all the ups and downs. Fantastic coaching, product, and mentorship. Would highly recommend for athletes of all levels and experience.
Started my sessions with Cassidy at the start of the year and continued to have my best year of hockey yet. The mental side of sports is just what every athlete needs to get them to the next level. Highly recommend
Brian has been a tremendous help with my 16 year old hockey player. The tools he is learning to use are life skills. Everyone should have a Coach like Brian. Very worthwhile training! Thank you CEP Mindset!
I've been working with Nicholas and the CEP team for many years now, and I couldn't thank them enough for helping me get to where I am today. Before I started, my confidence was extremely inconsistent, and I constantly worried about what my teammates, coaches and scouts were thinking about me.

I've been working with Nicholas and the CEP team for many years now, and I couldn't thank them enough for helping me get to where I am today. Before I started, my confidence was extremely inconsistent, and I constantly worried about what my teammates, coaches and scouts were thinking about me. This led to me playing head games more so than hockey. After working one on one with Nicholas, I learned new and helpful mental tools to allow me to trust my abilities, play more consistent, and be able to just play hockey minus all the nonsense noise. I never fully understood the importance of the mental side of hockey until working with Nicholas. Through our biweekly zoom calls, I learned many techniques to improve my mindset such as the reset routine, and self-reflection, and concepts such as playing in a 3/4 mindset and filtering out unwanted noise that have become a staple in my preparation and daily routines. I recommend working with CEP and Nicholas to anyone wanting to get an edge on their competition and maximize their full potential as they helped me get to where I am today! Less

My name is Katie and I swim for the University of Toronto. I made the decision to start working with Cassidy about a year ago which has unequivocally been the best decision I've made regarding my sport. Prior to working with Cassidy, my confidence was low and I was losing my love for swimming. Promptly after we starting working together I learned various ways to change my game and mindset. Within this year of working with Cassidy, I've reached higher levels of performance, gained confidence and clarity, and have been able to completely reinvent my thought process and actions. Cassidy has become a mentor to me and I firmly believe that without his help I would be a completely different person. I strongly encourage any athlete facing difficulty within their sport to work with a CEP coach as I will be forever grateful that I did. Less

Our son is a hockey player and has working with Kyle for over a year. We’ve seen huge mental development in our son since he’s been working with Kyle. Kyle has the skill of rephrasing questions to help lead our son towards an answer. He poses questions in different ways so that our son can understand. Kyle relates to things not just about hockey. He tries to understand what motivates the player and what gets them going. Kyle encourages a lot of self-reflection and accountability. He challenges the player to use other words when answering, probing to get more out of them. Kyle emphasizes that it is not just a one hour game, but that it’s everything leading up to the game. Kyle is very motivating. He turns negatives into positives and learning experiences. He reminds the player not to focus on stats, comparisons, and end results, but focus on the process. Kyle reiterates that the player remember why they play the game. Kyle also reminds the player that when motivation is low, that’s when they turn to discipline, routine, and habits. Our son’s feedback is that Kyle understands what he is saying and is very productive. Our son really likes that Kyle puts his screen share on and shows our son where he is going (short term and long term plans), breaks everything down to bite-sized chunks, and shows our son his progress. Thank you very much for providing the opportunity to give a review. Less

My husband and I were struggling with our son, 12 y/o hockey player and his ability to manage emotions. He is a very talented hockey player that expects perfection from himself. While having a high standard for oneself is great, his ability to handle his emotions when things didn't go right or he didn't perform to perfection began overshadowing his on ice abilities. In brief readings we learned about sports psychology and having a coach. To support our son we decided to formally explore this as an option. My husband found CEP Mindset and got hooked up with Kyle Bergh. While the work is not over, the improvements in attitude and handling adversity have been exciting. His main coach and skills coach both unprompted made comments on how he is managing his emotions better, being OK with a mistake and handling frustration. The opportunity to interact with someone who has been in his skates, isn't his coach and is independent of us as parents allows him to speak freely and learn to open up and more importantly how to implement a repeatable process to handle mental challenges. We are very thankful for the work Kyle has done and would encourage anyone contemplating a mental coach for their child, do it and certainly consider Kyle. Less
Sam Leavens has been amazing to talk to about improving my mental game when it comes to track and field. She has allowed me to remember the core reason why I run in the first place and find ways to make it fun once again!
We have had CEP Mindset come to do workshops with our U13 A hockey team. The talks have been engaging and production. Sam does a great job relating to our players.
I worked with Nicholas Santino for a couple months now and i have improved greatly. i recommend these courses to anyone who needs and i will definitely be telling my family and friends about this course.

Our 9 year old son started working with Max Stefanakos and the CEP Mindset program this fall and we are thrilled with the results that we have already seen. The growth and development far exceeds our expectations. Max has build a strong relationship with him already, you can see the trust and admiration that they share. We originally reached out to help improve our son's mental approach to sports as he puts a lot of pressure on himself, we have seen significant growth in his hockey/baseball mindset and mental game- but more importantly, he has grown leaps and bounds as a human being. We are so proud of him, and so incredibly thankful for finding the CEP Mindset program and his coach/mentor, Max. A huge thank you to Max, our little guy thinks the world of you and we are so happy that our paths have crossed. We highly recommend the program, the results will blow you away. Less
I work with Sam Leavens and she is a super kind and enthusiastic person to work with. She understands where I am going wrong and always finds a solution. I’m very happy with cep and sam
I was a little skeptical about having my 11-year-old son working with Kyle/CEP. I was not sure if he would benefit from the program because of his age. I have to say that I was wrong in my thinking, my son has benefited from his sessions with Kyle, he talks more about his game now than ever and his game is way more consistent. Great job Klye, he is looking forward to his next session.
I worked with Kyle Bergh from 2021-2022, after my time working with Kyle I have done a complete 180 with my mindset towards sports, and my outlook on life has completely changed for the better, definitely worth it, 100% would recommend.
Chris is amazing!! After years of performance anxiety, he taught me the importance of mindfulness. I learned to alter my prospective to think tactically and not emotionally when i’m in a competition. He taught me the most important lesson that still sticks to me, learning to trust the process, your training and most importantly, yourself. Thank you Chris!!
Able to decipher and relate to young athletes and their ambitions! Highly recommend!

Our son is a U11 AAA Goalie and has been seeing Kyle Bergh from CEP for the last year and has loved the engagement. Biggest areas of improvement has been his mindset in games while using the techniques they've been working on (Accept, Breathe, Control what you can control along with alter ego). He's also been able to apply the principles outside of sports and that really helped him when he transitioned to a new school mid year last year. During my son's report card/teacher meeting last month, he commented how much our son matured in his emotional intelligence which has allowed him to better focus and take responsibility for his success in the classroom. Our son enjoys the challenge that education is bringing and takes pride in his homework, projects, and tests. This was NOT the case before. HUGE WIN for us and big time THANK YOU goes out to Kyle for his help. Less
I have worked with Chris for about a couple months and already my confidence has completely changed. My game and my play drastically went up and I feel like I have a huge edge over players with my mental game, as I know that the higher you play the more important it is to have a strong mental game as the physical skill gap lessens.
I have been working with CEP Mindset and have truly found a change in my hockey game and my mindset during, before, and after my games. Being a stronger mental player is what makes the difference between good players and great players. I love working with CEP Mindset and won't ever stop. I have been working with Chris De Piero and it has truly been a game changer
Incredible coach who really enjoys working with his clients. Coach DePeiro and I have worked together for the past 7 or so months, it has been tremendous. He has helped me through the ups and down, and I’m super excited to continue to work with him!
I worked with coach Kyle, it was a great experience throughout all the sessions and it helped me learn the mental side of the game. Ever since I’ve been doing these sessions I’ve been playing better and also playing more consistently.
I had an amazing experience working with the CEP Mindset program, it helped me make big changes in my mindset and helped me perform better on the ice. Your mindset has a big impact on your performance and is not something that should be looked over.

As a father of an aspiring athlete, I am constantly looking to push developing boundary's in helping my son out. The difference in an athlete making the cut can be a micron of a hair thread... that is what they deal with today. A former pro explained to me that most athletes today train meticulously in skills or strength and mildly forget about the actual drive control center of the body- the mind! On further explanation he described that an elite athlete thinks and focuses on a much different level. How they prepare to how they think their visions thru. Basically, one's mindset is what can set a good player from an elite player. This is where Bryan McLaughlin comes in. He has been working with my son for almost 3 years now and I can tell you that the transformation has been trajectory like! I have seen his daily regiment change. His training, eating and sleeping habits are constant. The way he puts habits into process has been incredible to see. My son is 17 now and his coaches in the last 3 years have all said that he is at a different maturity level. He has managed to live away from home also during this period. Most kids at this age are just figuring themselves out- if they want to push thru with their dreams. JJ, has pushed his mental side to another level... and it is showing in his game. Bad games are put aside but not forgotten. He learns from these instances and knows how to move forward and away from them. I would highly recommend any parent to do your diligence and educate oneself to working with one's mind and seeing how powerful the change can be..... there is no better place to start other than with Bryan McLaughlin.

My name is Daniel Valencia, and I play hockey for the University of Tampa. For the past six months, I have been working with Nicholas Santino to improve my focus and performance on and off the ice. He has taught me how (methods) to improve my mindset, reset routines, block unrelated thoughts, and make my “best performance” something I could control and bring rather than hoping it would occur. I’ve always struggled to focus and find “in the zone.” In addition, outside thoughts constantly distracted me while on the bench, making it very challenging to enjoy the game. All this made me struggle during games, specifically in generating points and scoring. However, it all became more manageable and more enjoyable after developing my reset routine with Nicholas. I never realized the importance of the mental game until I began to focus and apply it. As a result, I first saw the results and benefits of all this at the IIHF World Championship U-20, playing for Mexico with my brothers. Currently, I continue to see the benefits while playing for The University of Tampa and being a runner-up for point leader as a Freshman. I have benefited and enjoyed all of my sessions with Nicholas. Very easy to talk to and ask questions that are not sports related. Very understanding and charismatic. Scheduling and rescheduling sessions are great and very flexible. Less
During the spring I had the pleasure of working with Max Stefanakos via zoom meet to review and restructure my mental game between the pipes. I experienced nothing but professionalism and class as he was dedicated to helping me achieve my true full potential as an athlete. He was fantastic at relating to his clients and made the sessions fun and enjoyable. Great person in a great program
Cassidy and his team are the best in the biz! They have really helped me sharpen my mental game not only as an athlete, but as a person as well.

Hi, I'm Russell Kwinter and I play for the Ontario Terriers. I thought it would be helpful if I shared my experience working with Coach Cassidy from Consistent Elite Performance. Before I started the CEP High-Performance System, I was having a difficult time physically and mentally before games, especially before I pitched. I always worried about how I would perform and what the people around me would think. Results were the only thing I cared about and I did not focus on the process.I knew a CEP program would be essential to my game, but I was unsure of how it was going to improve it. Once I did my free 30-minute intro session and started a program, I began to see a positive change in my mindset and confidence. Using my personalized reset routine has helped keep me focused in the moment, instead of worrying about the outcome. Before I would pitch in a game, I was getting bad stomach aches and my body was constantly fatigued. Applying the concepts learned during the weekly sessions has allowed these negative feelings to go away. It is great to be able to present questions or concerns to Cassidy throughout these sessions because he will always give a thorough, easy to understand answer. Now that I've consistently implemented the strategies I've learned at CEP, I play the game of baseball with more enjoyment and passion. Since my confidence has been improving, my leadership skills are improving as well. I have gone from being scared to pitch to being exited to. To any athletes either struggling with worrying about the results, bad pre game nerves, or just wanting to perform more consistently at their potential, I encourage you to try out a free session with a CEP coach, as it has been a decision I will never regret.

Over the past few months Nicholas has taught me many skills that have improved my mindset on the ice and he has allowed me to become the best player I can be. Not only have these skills helped me improve my game on the ice, but they have also translated to off ice, like school and everyday situations. Working with Nicholas has improved many mental aspects to my game that allow me to boost my physical skill’s as well. After working with Nicholas for a few months I have really started to learn the importance of a reset routine and how it truly can change the way you play. Translating a reset routine into my game has allowed me to overcome doubts and thoughts affecting my game that would of been stuck in my head throughout the whole game a few months ago that would of brought down my game quite a bit. Nicholas has also taught me the importance of imagery and how it can help improve my mental preparation for before and during games to allow me to get the best out my game. Aswell as the importance of breathing. For me this was super important because when I feel to tense during a hockey game I end up over handling pucks, over skating pucks, passing to far ahead of a teammate etc. Learning the importance of breathing allowed me to find the perfect balance so that I can always be at my very best. I know many players can relate to that. I highly recommend Nicholas as he has brought my game play to another level and I cannot thank him enough for it Less

I’ve been able to statistically increase my ppg and ice time on a big scale after staring with CEP. I highly recommend working with Kyle as he has been nothing but helpful for me. He’s helped me explore new strategies and skills to continuously improve my mental game and can relate to many of the scenarios that I face on the ice and in my day to day life. For anyone looking to improve or work on their mental performance, I highly recommend Kyle or anyone else in the CEP team. Less
I really enjoyed my time talking to sam and she really helped shift my mindset for the better and put a different perspective on my sport

Hi, I'm Alexandr Sutchin and I play for the U18 Toronto Titans. I thought it would be helpful if I shared my experience working with coach Adam Carter from Consistent Elite Performance. Before I started the CEP High-Performance System, I struggled with my confidence, controlling my emotions, overthinking and thinking about stats. I wanted to learn how to improve and maintain my confidence without leaning on stats. I also wanted to learn how I could control my thinking and thoughts before, during and after games in order to not overthink and stay focused. When I first came across CEP, I knew that this program could help me with my mental game. I knew this program was what I needed, but I wasn't sure if it would work for me and how improving my mental game would look like. Once I did my free 30-minute intro session and started a program, I was surprised how this program was able to improve my mental game. I had a very helpful and knowledgeable coach who created a safe environment to talk and analyse my personal thoughts and feelings. I learned a lot of helpful strategies such as the Reset Routine, that allowed me to shift my mindsets during games and deal with the ups and downs of hockey in order to achieve my mental goals. The strategies I learned also helped me in real life situations out of hockey as well. And now that I've consistently implemented the strategies I've learned at CEP, I had a lot more fun on the ice, I was a lot more consistent in my play, and my game started improving quickly. So, to any athletes either struggling with any mental blocks, or just want to perform more consistently at their potential, I encourage you to try this program and see the results for yourself. Less
Dr. Cassidy really helped my son get through an emotionally trying time as he helped him focus on the big picture, his goals, and ambitions. I'm so grateful!
My experience with Dr. Cassady Preston has been outstanding. Originally, I reached out to him to gain his insight as a coach to coach, however the discovery meeting was the tip of the iceberg. Dr. Cassady is very knowledgeable in athletic performance coaching as well as Executive Coaching. He brings out your finest version of you to do what you were born to do.

Definitely worth it. Helps you with nothing more, than improving and being the best self, you can be. Everyone needs it at some point or another. Better sooner than later.
When starting to work with CEP Mindset I’ve seen a real growth in myself on and off the pitch. With the work I have done with Nick I have been able to develop a strong understanding of how the mind works and how to control emotions. I appreciate everything they have done for me and strongly encourage anyone to give it a go

Hi, my name's Matt Server, and I play for Ohio University in ACHA D1. I want to share my experience working with coach Santino from Consistent Elite Performance. Before starting the CEP High-Performance System, I struggled with starting games well and worried about what my coaches and teammates thought about my play. I was also worried about my stats and making it to the next level rather than focusing on the process. When I came across CEP for the first time, I knew the coaches would help me improve my mental game, but I didn't know what training my mental skills would be like. I knew CEP would help me, but I kept thinking that I didn't need help. Once I completed my free 30-minute intro session and started a program, I quickly noticed an improvement in my mental game and performance. The reset routine and pre-game routine my coach and I created helped me stay present in the moment stopped me from worrying about my stats and factors that were out of my control. Having bi-weekly one-on-one session with coach Santino helped me a lot, because we were able to come up with a plan and a system that worked best for me and could talk about things that I was personally struggling with. Now that I've implemented the strategies that I've learned at CEP, I'm more consistent in games and I'm no longer nervous or anxious just before games. My self-esteem and confidence has improved dramatically and feel like nothing can stop me. To any athletes struggling with their confidence, are worrying about their stats too much, or are just looking to improve their mental game, I encourage you to book a free intro session with one of the CEP coaches.

Incredible experience. 10/10. I wouldn't hesitate recommending this program to a friend. I have improved tremendously since joining the program. No more overthinking, no more fear of failure, and I have become very consistent. I look forward to my meeting every time, it feels almost like talking to a friend rather than a Coach.
My experience with Cassidy was first-rate. He is a true professional, he helps create actionable solutions to make you a better Athlete and person.
In the 3 months that I have been working with CEP, I have noticed huge improvements in my mental toughness and ability to deal with distractions. In the past, I would often let one negative thought affect my play, thus making hockey more of a stressor than a passion. I have recently seen my love for hockey and competitive drive increase, thanks to the CEP team.
This is an amazing organization. It helps develop many student-athletes and athletes within their sport, and throughout all areas of their life. It is the best bang for your buck.

Consistent elite performance has helped my mental game tremendously throughout this season. Before I had troubles regulating my emotions and energy levels with playing but was taught effective strategies to solve these problems. I plan to continue working with Cassidy in the future!
I have loved my time being apart of this program so far, it has helped me in many ways both on and off the ice. I saw my performance skyrocket as I began playing with more confidence and poise. Can't stress how much this program has helped me.
The CEP Program is amazing. Very professional and a great value! The program has been so valuable in guiding our son with high performance training and mindset! We look forward to continuing with Consistent Elite Performance programs!
Nicholas works with two of our children who are playing Junior A boys and Midget AA girls’ hockey respectively. CEP has taught them skills to focus more on the process which has allowed them to play with more confidence and feel better about themselves and the ups and downs of playing at an elite level. We highly recommend him and CEP.

I stopped worrying about outcomes and stuck to focusing on what I can control or do in the moment. I only did a 3 month program but the steps I was able to take with the help of Coach Nicholas Santino were significant. Anytime I had questions or needed advice I could easily send him a text and always count on getting a full response. Even after my program has ended I can still get any piece of advice or questions I have answered. Coach Nicholas has been a huge influence in helping me improve my game and overall myself as a person. You won't find a more enthusiastic, passionate and, knowledgeable Coach out there. I have nothing but praise for Coach Nicholas and the CEP program. Less

Nick Santino started working with both my sons over a year ago. My oldest son golfs competitively which has a tremendous amount of mental and personal pressure and my youngest son plays AAA hockey as a goalie which also has it's own heightened pressures and challenges. Both boys were struggling with their own internal issues, were being very hard on themselves, had the skill but wanted to take their games to the next level. Nick worked through a personalized program with each of them. He related to them on an individual basis and understood the intricacies of each sport. His passion shone through when he showed up to watch hockey games unannounced or organized a round of golf during a time where he had his own personal heavy workload. His feedback was paramount and he quickly became a sounding board and ally to both boys. Both their games have gone to the next level and we credit Nick for the progress they made this year. We have recommended Nick and Consistent Elite Performance to many parents who have seen the improvements. We now know what a key part of sports, the mental game truly is. Thanks again to Nick and the team at CEP. Less

I have been working with Nick for a while now and he has improved my mental game dramatically. He has taught me how to re-set and ignore distractions in big moments. He's a really nice guy and easy to talk too, he has helped me a lot.
My sons have been working with Nic this year and they both have benefitted greatly! It has helped them boost confidence and stay focused in the moment both in athletic situations and at school. Highly Recommend!!!!

Very good. Helped me with everything and i feel so much better about myself now. Nick Santino worked with me and he is amazing and the best instructor out of all them all, he's great.
Cassidy and his team has helped me achieve successes and has helped me in my every day life being able to live my life to the fullest.his way of explaining and giving us excersises to help improve our mental game is second to none
This is a great way about to learn about the mental fundamentals of sports.
Very helpful in these hard times. It has helped me keep my head straight.
Amazing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very good

The CEP program has been a great experience. After 6 months my confidence has gone up incredibly . I have learnt a lot of valuable things from 1 on 1 talks and groups sessions. Learning more about my mental game has lead to key success towards my play on the ice and I think it would work for anyone. I would recommend.
Since I started the program I have greatly evolved as an athlete. Everything within the program has a purpose and the coaches are always there for you and want you to achieve success on and off the field.
