Give Your Game the Mental Edge with…

Sports Psychology

Sports Psychology is the application of psychological principals and cognitive methods to help athletes improve their performance. Sports psychology sharpens your "mental game." Qualified practitioners apply Neuro-Linguistic Programming and Clinical Hypnosis to help athletes:

• Focus their concentration
• Enhance self confidence
• Recover more easily from mistakes and setbacks during competition
• Learn the art of mental rehearsal and visualization
• Manage the pain of injuries and facilitate recovery (while under medical supervision)*
• Move beyond emotional setbacks
• Develop skills for relaxation, positive self-talk and self-hypnosis

Dr. Judy Pearson has experience in providing counseling and coaching for professional athletes, high school and college age athletes, government and military personnel who must pass physical fitness training tests, and amateurs who simply want to play a better game.
