Book description
This book offers new strategies and scripts for hypnotherapists,
sports counsellors and sports psychologists working with athletes to
help them achieve their peak performance. A major focus of the book is
that the therapist does not necessarily need to be familiar with the
sport or activity to serve as a mental coach” to the athlete. The
athlete is instructed that the goal is not to improve the mechanics of
their performance (that is left up to their coaches) but, rather, to
help them to relax, concentrate and focus so that they fulfill their
maximum potential. They learn not to let the mental side of their game
trip up the physical side, but rather to enhance it.
Joseph Tramontana, PhD has been a Licensed Clinical Psychologist for

certified counselor through the National Institute of Sports
Professionals.
