Free Sports Psychology Consultant

Yapamillias

I am currently embarking on the final semester of my MA in Sports Psychology. As part of my final placement program I will have to work on a 1 to 1 basis with an individual athlete for 4-6 weeks. I am trying to find a person who competes at a high level, is currently in training and would have a competition or meet within the 4-6 weeks of the placement. The 4 -6 weeks would involve discussion and implementation of various psychological skills to help maintain/improve performance.

If anyone thinks that they fit into the bracket above then feel free to send me a PM with details outlining your competitive situation. I would be particularly interested in someone currently competing in MMA. An end of placement write-up would be compiled which would outline the details pertaining to training experiences as well as competition.

If you have any reservations or questions then feel free to reply in the thread.

edit: I would hope to spend time talking to coaches or teammates during training time while trying to build up a profile of the athlete. The lines of questioning are very casual and non-invasive and can provide insightful information regarding individuals perceptions of themselves and others.

Hey sorry this is off topic. I'm currently a psychology student myself and was wondering how you got into sports psychology ie what you did after your degree, where you studied, how long for and your job prospects on completion of your studies. Thanks!
