Training Highlights

Adam Torrisi, Founder and Director of Performance

As a practicing psychotherapist and current college lacrosse coach, Adam's expertise was key in developing the Intentional Lacrosse. Adam's lacrosse background is extensive and diverse. Shortly after finishing his playing career at Montclair State, he began a 10-year coaching stint at MSU, where he started as an assistant coach, became the offensive coordinator, and eventually the associate head coach, where he helped lead the team to three consecutive NCAA Tournaments. During that time, he mentored countless All-Americans and all-conference players while winning three ECAC Championships. He has now rejoined the staff at Montclair State after spending five years as an assistant at Glen Ridge High School. Adam is also the Director of College Recruiting for Riot Lacrosse in NJ.

Adam is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with over 20 years of experience in educational leadership and mental health. He combines his expertise to support athletes, families, and individuals in overcoming challenges and achieving their goals.

Adam's approach is committed to holistic development and personalized attention. His goal is to help athletes transform challenges into opportunities for growth and success.
