Dr. Keon Stewart is the driving force behind Michigan Football’s commitment to the mental and emotional well-being of our student-athletes. With years of experience in sports psychology and counseling,
Dr. Stewart works daily to ensure our players have the tools, support, and strategies to handle the unique pressures of college athletics. From performance anxiety and stress management to personal challenges off the field, he provides a safe space for honest conversations and practical solutions. In a sport that demands so much physically, we recognize that mental health is just as critical to performance and long-term success.
Under Dr. Stewart’s guidance, our program normalizes asking for help, teaches resilience, and equips players to navigate life’s toughest moments with strength and clarity. His work ensures that every Wolverine not only plays at their highest level but also thrives as a balanced, healthy individual—because true victory starts from within.
