About Nikki Dieball

Hi I’m Nikki and I am so excited that you’re here! I want to share a little bit about myself with you! I am a former double sport collegiate athlete (volleyball and basketball) and had the privilege to play on some pretty amazing teams with teammates from all over the world! I am now a collegiate volleyball coach, owner and director of a volleyball club, wife and momma to a pretty amazing son!

I first learned about mental training when I was in 5th grade. I had a coach that taught us how to visualize and how to stay calm under pressure. I would use this periodically through my formative years as an athlete but never fully got a hold of it till I was in college. I had such a passion for how the mind works that I went on to get my Bachelors and Masters Degrees in Psychology. I have such a heart to help athletes realize the incredible power that is inside of them just waiting to burst out so that is why I founded Elevate Mental Training. I wanted to help athletes unleash that power. To understand what true confidence is and to get them to a point where they are playing free and having fun while they are doing it! Since I started Elevate, I have been able to work with high school and college teams as well as individual athletes from across the country! You have a secret weapon and it’s already inside of you! The other really amazing thing that happens when you start a mental training practice is that it spills over into other areas of your life! I can’t wait to help you bring it out so you can find that next level and be your absolute best self!
