Meet Coach John
John J. Schessler, Jr., M.S.
I am a Sport Psychology professional, Mental Performance Coach, Certified Master Trainer, and behavioral intervention specialist dedicated to helping athletes perform at their highest potential.
My journey has taught me firsthand about adversity, resilience, and perseverance. At age 10, I survived Guillain-Barré Syndrome, spending six weeks in a coma before beginning a long rehabilitation process. That experience shaped my understanding of determination and the power of the human spirit.
Today, I combine my education, coaching experience, and professional background to help athletes strengthen confidence, focus, resilience, emotional regulation, leadership, and performance under pressure.
