Sport Psychology in Clinical Practice: Consultation Series
Sport Psychology in Clinical Practice: Consultation Series
As we try to meet both the Mental Health and the Mental Performance needs of athletes, there's often a Gap where practitioners are trained in one area more than the other but need enough knowledge of both to have a deeper impact.
If you are a mental health practitioner wanting to deepen your sport psychology competencies or a sport psychology professional seeking to integrate more clinical depth into your conceptualizations, this is the course for you!
Join us for an intensive 5-week consultation series designed for professionals want to unlock another gear in their work with athletes.
