Sport/Performance Psychologists and Certified Mental Performance Consultants
Sport/Performance Psychologists are licensed to practice psychology and are specialized in working with athletes and performers. Certified Mental Performance Consultants are credentialed through the Association for Applied Sport Psychology (AASP). Both identify the mental, emotional, behavioral, and interpersonal factors of performance excellence. They also teach, coach, and help refine the psychological skills, strategies, and perspectives that can improve and optimize performance and consistency. These skills can be utilized with any performance domain - not necessarily just athletes. Sport/Performance Psychologists also can provide mental health services.
