Transition to College Athletics with Confidence with Carmen Tebbe Priebe, Ph.D., Sport Psychologist at Upside Down Performance & University of Iowa
Dr. Carmen Tebbe Priebe spent 9 years at the University of Oklahoma Athletic Department. At OU, she provided counseling, performance enhancement, leadership, and team-building services for all OU student-athletes.

She worked for the Iowa State University Student Counseling Services for 9 months and then started in her current role as a part-time sport psychologist for the University of Iowa Athletics Department. In addition to serving the Hawkeyes, she has a consulting and private practice business, Upside Down Performance, with Dr. Angie Fifer (Episode 40: Confidence is a Decision) and Chelsea Latorre.
