Sport psychologists working with athletes, teams and sports
performers are only as effective as their professional techniques
and competencies will allow. This is the first book to offer a
detailed and critical appraisal of the conceptual foundations of
contemporary professional practice in sport psychology. The book
presents a series of reviews of the most up-to-date academic and
professional literature on professional practice, exploring issues
that all psychologists face when working with clients in sport, and
offers important evidence-based recommendations for best practice.
Key topics covered include:
- models of practice and service delivery
- counselling and clinical intervention
- working with teams
- working with young performers
- providing life skills training
- managing career transitions
- working with special populations
- enhancing coach-athlete relations.
With contributions from leading sport psychology consultants in
the UK, the US, Canada, Australia and continental Europe, this is a
comprehensive and thought-provoking resource that bridges the gap
between research and application. It is vital reading for all
advanced students, researchers and professionals working in sport
psychology.
