Sports Psychology

Sports Psychologist in Greenville, NC

Sport psychology is the scientific study of people and their behaviors in sport contexts and the practical application of that knowledge. Sport psychologists identify principles and guidelines that help adults and children participate in and benefit from sport and exercise activities, both in team and individual environments.
Sport psychologists have two objectives in mind
  • understand how psychological factors affect an individual's physical performance
  • understand how participation in sport and exercise affects a person's psychological development, health and well-being
Sport psychology deals with increasing performance by managing emotions and minimizing the psychological effects of injury and poor performance. Some of the most important skills taught are:
  • goal setting
  • relaxation
  • visualization
  • self-talk
  • awareness and control
  • concentration
  • confidence
  • rituals
  • attribution training
  • periodization

  • James recently presented our group with a two part series on goal setting. James was very informative. His enthusiasm and candor were both delightful and infectious. Thanks, Ben Smith

  • I have been a client for over nine months. I drive 90 miles each way every week. It is worth every mile to have such sincere, compassion, and expertise that I receive from James. James is the best in the business and he is there always to serve and he provides the best for each of his clients. He has helped me in my personal growth to reach my goals in overcoming and getting closer to my potential. I can not say enough good and I will recommend James to anyone.
