About Christine

Dr. Christine Sanchez specializes in mental performance training and executive coaching for individuals and teams operating in high-stakes environments. Over the past two decades, she has worked with elite military service members, first responders, executives, professional athletes, physicians, and other high performers who are committed to reaching their full potential while sustaining their wellbeing. She is known for serving as a steady “aid to navigation,” helping clients reconnect with their authentic self, clarify their purpose, and perform with greater focus and resilience.

Her work centers on mindful performance under pressure, learning through productive failure, and optimizing recovery to support long-term excellence. Dr. Sanchez integrates evidence-based mental skills training with psychophysiological tools such as heart rate variability (HRV) and capnography biofeedback. She also helps clients develop deliberate recovery practices that fit into their lifestyle, incorporating breathwork, nature-based experiences, mindfulness, movement, and meaningful social connection.

In addition to her client work, Dr. Sanchez serves on the Board of Directors for both the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA) and the Heart Rate Variability Institute (HRVI), contributing to the advancement of standards and education in the field of psychophysiology and performance optimization.
