Unlike traditional talk therapy or sports psychology, PTG for Athletes™ is a science-driven approach that approaches therapy in a multidimensional perspective.
The approach aims to shift the athlete’s focus on outcome to the process, ensuring a deeper level of satisfaction in sport and life. Often, athletes achieve performance gains from this integrative approach, but the aim is to help the athlete feel more satisfaction, growth and restoration in all areas of life, which then leads to a greater athletic and performance capacity.
Post Traumatic Growth for Athletes™ works from the bottom up and the inside out, which is a unique and more effective approach than other conventional models of psychology and counseling.
