INITIAL ONLINE CONSULTATION

I am offering a no cost initial online sports psychology consultation via Skype.  This is a 20 minute consult where we will talk about how mental training fits into your plans.  All you have to do is call or email me for a time slot.  We will connect using Skype and see if  this is right for both you and me.  Typically we will talk about any issues and directions you would like to go.  Let’s talk about stress, concentration, relaxation and visualization and hypnosis.

For youth athletes this is a time when your parents can jump on as well to ask questions.  It is a process that is working really well and this is the first time I am offering this service online.  Call (425) 241-6539 or email margolies@themental-game.com  NOW for your appointment.

Why Mental Training? Results!

The Big  Why

If as Baseball great Yogi Berra is quoted as saying, “90% of all sport is mental and the other 50% physical, why do we spend almost 100% of our time training only our bodies.  This is the big question you need to ask yourself or any athlete.  What are you doing to train your mind for athletic success?  are you dealing with competitive stress productively?  Sport Psychology Consultants and the Mental Game will help you reach the next level.  Please explore the site and see if there are areas of your mental training that we can help with.  Most of our programs are relitively short turn, but the results will last a lifetime.

Take this short quiz.

1)  Are you a confident athlete?

2)  Do you understand how best to use imagery to help you to peak performance and to accelerate  learning of new skills?

3)  Do you deal with your fears or avoid them?

4)  Do you know how to relax and can you turn the switch on when you need to?

5)  Do you  lose focus during competition?

6)  Does the word choke hit close to home?

7)  Do you use an effective pre- and post competition routine?  How about for practice?

If you found that there were questions that you answered NO, let us help you make the answers YES. Gain the skills to effectively get results and take your game to the next level.  Come join us and play the Game within the Game.
