What is Sports Psychology?

A sports psychologist can help athletes improve performance and overcome mental barriers to success.

You can do assessment for your mental game and determine the top mental skills to improve your performance.

A sports psychologist can also help parents of athletes improve performance and have more fun in sports.

What makes an ideal mental coaching student?

Regardless of the sport, athletes, and performers will benefit most from sports psychology coaching if they are dedicated to improving their performance, can apply the principles of mental game coaching, and are determined to perform better every time they compete.

How do I know if I’d be a good candidate for mental game coaching?

You would be a great candidate for mental game coaching if you have the physical talent and skills for your sport and are determined to perform well, but have realized :

  • You should/could be performing better.
  • You perform better in practice than in competition.
  • You’ve lost confidence, can’t concentrate or frequently lose control.
