What is Sport Psychology?
According to the American Psychological Association, sport psychology is “a proficiency that uses psychological knowledge and skills to address optimal performance and well-being of athletes.” However, sport psychology has applications outside of the realm of athletics and focuses on the development of skills imperative for individuals to achieve optimum performance across a variety of settings.
At FPA Performance, we focus on addressing the areas that may have a negative impact on performance, while also developing and bolstering the mental skills necessary for peak performance. Using techniques supported by empirically based research, our clinicians help clients develop the ability to regulate emotions and remain in a state that promotes optimal performance.
