All therapists who currently use Ericksonian methods and brief therapy and would like to branch out into Sports Psychology would benefit from reading this book. The authors believe that traditional methods of helping sports people are too long-winded and could be much improved by using tried and tested Ericksonian techniques, tailored, of course, to the specific client. Although an interest and a knowledge of most sports is desirable, it is not absolutely necessary to know about specific sports in any great depth in order to help a sports person to enhance performance or to remove stumbling blocks which may be preventing them from giving their best.
As well as several case studies, which set out the methods the authors use, also provided are ways in which brief therapeutic methods can be utilised for this purpose.
There is also a useful chapter on marketing your Sport Psychology practice.
