Increasing numbers of professional teams and athletes look for
assistance with the psychological factors of their performance, and
there exists a growing body of professional sport psychologists
ready to provide support. Despite this, it seems at times there
remains a significant gap between the real needs of sport
performers and what is delivered by traditional sport psychology.
The existential approach described by Mark Nesti offers a radical
alternative to the cognitive and cognitive-behavioural approaches
that have dominated sport psychology, and represents the first
systematic attempt to apply existential psychological theory and
phenomenological method to sport psychology. This much-needed
alternative framework for the discipline of applied sport
psychology connects to many of the real and most significant
challenges faced by sports performers during their careers and
beyond. Existential Psychology and Sport outlines an approach that
can be used to add something of depth, substance and academic
rigour to sport psychology in applied settings beyond the confines
of MST and good listening skills.
