Our Passion.
Their Performance.
At Apex Athletic Academy, our mission is simple: to shape the next generation of athletes by helping them master the mental side of the game—so they can perform with purpose, lead with confidence, and grow through every challenge.
Meet The Founder
Hi, I’m Amorette O’Brien, MA, LMFT, MPM, and for the past 19 years I’ve worked with teens as a therapist. In that time, I’ve seen an important pattern: not every young person needs therapy, but nearly every competitive athlete needs help with the mindset piece.
I learned that lesson firsthand. As a high school soccer player at a New England private school, my team went undefeated all season with zero goals scored against us—until the championship game. One early goal shook our confidence, and we couldn’t recover. That experience showed me how much mental performance matters when the pressure is highest.
Since then, I’ve watched athletes pour hundreds of hours into practices, private lessons, strength training, and nutrition—yet the missing link was always the same: their mental game. Apex was created to fill that gap.
Why Apex?
Our Core Values:
Growth & Development: Athletes are more than their stats — they’re leaders in the making. Our focus is on building strength that lasts on and off the field.
Excellence & Mastery: Consistency under pressure isn’t luck. It’s the result of intentional, disciplined training — the same approach we model in every session.
Connection & Compassion: Performance begins with trust. We build strong athlete-coach relationships that fuel confidence and growth.
Integrity & Service: Our promise is honesty, reliability, and care. We believe athletes and parents deserve respect, trust, and real results.
These values fuel our approach — where science meets sport and athletes build the mindset to perform with confidence and consistency.
