We spent a few days hiking in the Adirondack Mountains located in upstate New York.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s good to take a break now and then and come back with a fresh perspective&#8211;in anything in life. So, I&#8217;m back in the office&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m surprised when sports parents ask if I do <strong>personal one-on-one mental game coaching<\/strong>. In fact, doing personal coaching with athletes is how I started my work in sports psychology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the last five years at <strong>Peak Performance Sports<\/strong>, we&#8217;ve developed several products including The Confident Athletes CD series, The Confident Sports Kid CD series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the programs I produce are an extension of my experiences as a mental game coach and <strong>helping athletes improve their mental game.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I love to do the personal coaching and interact with athletes and their parents. And there are several advantages to doing <strong>personal one-on-one coaching<\/strong> over downloading an eBook or listening to a CD program. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Improve your kid&#8217;s mental game <strong>faster<\/strong> using a more personal approach to mental training.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Uncover your kid&#8217;s unique mental game challenges using my AMAP assessment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Receive <strong>customized<\/strong> mental game coaching based to your child&#8217;s unique challenges.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Understand and learn mental game strategies that are specific to your athletes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Have the <strong>opportunity<\/strong> to ask specific questions about the mental game and get immediate answers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Develop a coaching relationship outside your kid&#8217;s regular circle of coaches and trainers to give you a different perspective.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So there&#8217;s lots of good reasons to engage in personal one-on-one coaching with a <strong>qualified mental coach<\/strong>. However, many sports parents cannot afford <strong>the cost<\/strong>&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this reason, we decided to offer a <strong>summer special mental coaching package<\/strong>, which is more <strong>affordable<\/strong> than the typical mental coaching programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I can only accept 20 new students for this <strong>summer special<\/strong>. I&#8217;ll email you all the details about this program later this week. Or for now, you can contact me by phone or email with any questions you might have 407-909-1700\/888-742-7225.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your Mental Coach,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Patrick J.
