Aidan Culloton, MA, CSPC
Meet Aidan
Aidan Culloton brings together experience across mental health, athletics, coaching, and sports psychology to help high-performing individuals understand and navigate the internal demands of performance through wellness consulting.
His approach is preventative, whole-person, and faith-informed, recognizing that sustainable performance is shaped by more than what happens in the moment. Mind, body, spirit, relationships, and environment all influence how we show up, respond to pressure, and perform at our best.
Rather than waiting for challenges to become obstacles, Aidan works proactively with individuals and teams to build greater awareness, regulation, resilience, and presence—creating a stronger foundation for meaningful and sustainable performance.
At the heart of his work is a simple belief: when the whole person is supported and integrated, performance and presence has greater capacity to thrive.
Professional Background
Aidan holds a master's degree in Marriage & Family Therapy and brings a diverse background spanning mental health, athletics, coaching, and performance development. His experience includes working within a variety of mental-health settings, along with coaching experience as a USA Swimming certified coach and formal training as a Certified Sports Psychology Coach (CSPC).
His continued professional development includes training and study in sports psychology, Brainspotting, nervous-system regulation, Polyvagal-informed techniques, somatic awareness, and whole-person performance. These areas inform a preventative approach designed to help individuals better understand themselves, build capacity, and perform with greater presence and consistency.
Aidan's work is also faith-informed, recognizing the importance that purpose, values, spirituality, and personal belief can play in sustainable performance and overall well-being. Rather than focusing solely on one aspect of a person's life, Ascend considers the individual as a whole—helping clients create greater alignment between who they are, how they live, and how they perform.
Company Overview
ASCEND provides whole-person consulting for high-performing individuals and teams who want to perform at their best with greater clarity, presence, resilience, and authenticity. Our approach focuses on helping you better understand and integrate the systems that influence your performance—so you can respond to pressure more effectively, overcome internal obstacles, and bring your most capable and authentic self to the moment.
Our consulting philosophy draws from performance psychology, Polyvagal Theory-informed techniques, Brainspotting-informed techniques, systems thinking, and faith-informed principles. Rather than focusing exclusively on performance outcomes, ASCEND looks at the person behind the performance.
At ASCEND Performance & Wellness, we believe sustainable peak performance comes from understanding and integrating the whole person—mind, body, spirit, and environment.
High performance isn't limited to the athletic arena. Whether you're an elite athlete, business executive, high-performing student, leader, or member of a team, the ability to perform consistently depends on much more than skill or preparation. Your thoughts, physiology, emotions, relationships, environment, values, and sense of purpose all influence how you show up when it matters most.
