Dr. Maniar has been fantastic with my pre-teen daughter.  He connected with her easily and has allowed her to express thoughts and feelings around competition and life's challenges. 

 

She is blossoming as a young lady and volleyballer.

He is an experienced and successful coach, father, athlete and psychologist.  I trust him to work with my loved ones.

Sam Maniar worked with me throughout my athletic career at Ohio State University and through my Olympic pushes.

 

His work and knowledge is cutting edge and he definitely helped me find a good path to reaching my Olympic dream.

 

I am now an Olympic medalist and couldn't have done it without Sam Maniar.

I have had the pleasure of working with Dr. Sam Maniar over the course of many years. Sam has always been professional, caring, and has always made himself available, regardless of the time or the situation.

 

His ability to address complicated situations and always find the best way forward is a hallmark of the way in which he handles each challenge. His skill set is only eclipsed by his intelligence and compassion.

 

Sam comes with my highest recommendation.

I’ve worked with Sam since 2018, and he has been a game-changer in my career. He listens deeply, speaks with clarity, and helps turn challenges into opportunities. Every session left me with something profound, often from just a few words that shifted my perspective and gave me a clear path forward. Thanks to his guidance, I successfully took over a high-performance medical device sales company, where he now plays an invaluable role in talent development — helping our leaders and people reach their full potential.

 

Sam is more than an executive coach — he’s a trusted advisor, a connector, and a catalyst for growth. I’m deeply grateful for his partnership and cannot recommend him highly enough.

Sam is a skilled clinician and sport psychologist with an incredible work ethic and moral compass. I had the pleasure of being part of the team that hired him into the Player Relations department at the Alliance of American Football. Sam exceeded expectations.

One of Sam's strengths is that while he specializes and was trained in sports, he also has traditional psychology training. As a result, Sam can assist patients comprehensively with issues that affect performance and quality of life.

Sam is smart, personable, and hard working. He is an excellent team member and clinician! I would hire Sam again without reservation.
