About Us
Outplay was founded by Gina Lynch, a mental performance consultant who received her M.S. in Performance, Sport, and Exercise Psychology from the University of Illinois Chicago. Gina is a lifelong athlete and experienced coach with a passion for the psychology of performance excellence. She has worked with Division 1 athletes, classical musicians, academic performers, and more to build the mental skills necessary for consistent, high-level performance.
At Outplay, we use the evidence-based practice of Acceptance and Commitment Training (ACT) to help performers handle the internal noise, stay present, and take committed steps towards becoming the performers they have the potential to be. By integrating mental training into your everyday practice, you will build a psychological toolkit that will help you manage the stressors and challenges associated with elite competition, perform at your peak more consistently, and embrace the process with genuine confidence and enjoyment.
Challenges We Tackle:
Performers across all domains: athletics, the arts, academics, and professional life, utilize performance psychology skills when:
They find themselves stuck in their head, overanalyzing, or hesitating during high-stakes moments.
They struggle to move past mistakes, setbacks, or poor performances.
They feel like their “practice self” is different from their “performance self” due to nerves or anxiety.
They are experiencing burnout or fatigue and have lost touch with the joy, passion, and purpose of their craft.
They have difficulty navigating high-intensity emotions like frustration, fear, or anger when the stakes are high.
They find themselves “playing it safe” or holding back to avoid failure.
They are struggling to manage competing demands, such as school, career transitions, and high-level training, while staying present.
What You Will Gain:
Our training equips you with a transferable psychological toolkit that drives both performance excellence and long-term flourishing:
Psychological Flexibility: the ability to stay present and committed to your values, even when difficult or distracting thoughts, fears, or doubts show up.
Present-Moment Focus: skills to deliberately and flexibly anchor your attention to the task at hand and fully engage in the present moment.
Values-Driven Action: learning to ground your pursuit of excellence in what deeply matters to you, transforming hard work from a source of stress into a source of fulfillment.
Genuine Confidence: a deep sense of self-worth built on effort, preparation, and character, things that you can actually control.
Holistic Development: building a psychological toolkit that supports your immediate performance goals while fueling your long-term growth as a human being.
