Dr. Caroline Silby is a nationally renowned Sports Psychologist, published author and faculty member at American University. Dr. Silby has worked on an individual basis with two Olympic Gold Medallists, twelve Olympians, three World Champions, eleven National Champions and over fifty National Competitors.

She is qualified to help meet the needs of athletes not only because of her years of academic training through which she earned a Ph.D. in sports psychology but because of the fourteen years she spent training to make the National Figure Skating Team. Her skating career culminated in competing in the 1984 Olympic Trials. While she did not make the Olympic Team, Dr. Silby did find a way to combine her passion for sports with her interest in psychology and the mental aspects influencing performance.

As an athlete, she struggled to meet some of the challenges she sees many athletes facing today. During her sports career, she consulted with a sports psychologist in the hopes that she could learn to perform more consistently. Indeed her performance level improved but more importantly, she became aware of the numerous benefits of sports participation. Through her work with sports psychologist, Dr. Bruce Ogilvie, Dr. Silby was able to more fully enjoy her sport experiences and perform more consistently.
