Dr. Sharon Chirban
Dr. Sharon Chirban is a transformative force at the intersection of clinical psychology, athletic performance, and executive development. With 25 years of clinical expertise, she created Amplify Wellness + Performance in 2000 to bring together her specialized work with high-performance athletes, executives, and individuals navigating eating disorders and broader mental health challenges. Her practice embodies a holistic philosophy, where Sharon has assembled an exceptional team of clinical and sport psychologists, nutrition experts, and wellness coaches to ensure comprehensive care and optimal results for every client.
Sharon’s distinguished career includes pivotal roles at Harvard Medical School, Boston Children’s Hospital Division of Sports Medicine, Boston Ballet, the NBA Players Association, and Harvard Track and Field. As a trained sport psychologist, she has treated countless athletes confronting post-concussion syndrome, ACL injuries, post-surgical rehabilitation, and the complex emotional terrain of athletic career transitions. Her approach addresses the psychological needs of the whole athlete—from recruiting pressures and team dynamics to coaching relationships and injury recovery—providing a sanctuary for honest self-exploration and renewal.
Her expertise in treating clinical eating disorders (anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating) has made her a trusted partner to treatment facilities, where she builds recovery programs that confront self-sabotaging behaviors impeding healthy relationships and wholesome living. Many of her patients are elite athletes and dancers, navigating the unique pressures of performance environments while seeking balanced wellness.
In the corporate arena, Sharon thrives as an external coach to C-level executives, guiding them through the delicate balance of work and life, confidence building, setback recovery, calculated risk-taking, and relationship management both within and beyond office walls. What drives her is a profound belief in human potential—the ability to transform what seems impossible into the absolutely possible. Her coaching philosophy centers on unlocking internal capacity through a strategic blend of insight, discipline, and creativity, particularly in high-pressure environments where leadership and performance intersect.
At Amplify Wellness + Performance, Sharon has cultivated a practice that mirrors her values: integrative, humanistic, and performance-focused. Her impact lies not just in the strategies she offers, but in creating a safe space for transformation, recalibration, and renewal—essential elements for sustained success in any high-stakes endeavor.
