Omschrijving
A guide for graduate students and early professionals to planning, preparing, and executing applied sport psychology work for the first time.
‘Completing fieldwork is often the most anticipated part of training for students pursuing a career in applied sport psychology. Yet, it can also become one of the most frustrating and disappointing parts of the journey. This much-needed book provides a comprehensive and time-tested guide – for students and supervisors alike – on how to successfully navigate the internship experience.’ - Wade Gilbert, California State University, Fresno, USA
‘This book takes the reader seamlessly along a journey from contemplating an internship through to working in independent practice. Chapters on supervision, practitioner self-care, evaluation and ethics are particularly useful. Insightful views offered from experienced supervisors and students themselves make this book a unique contribution to the international field.’- Zoe Knowles, Liverpool John Moores University, UK
‘Navigating the real world of opportunities for an early professional in applied sport psychology can be very intimidating. Excelling in Sport Psychology provides authentic support and recommendations for people going through those phases. The framework for planning, executing, and evaluating effective practice is a valuable and practical way for supervisors and early professionals to walk through the variety of challenges and opportunities leaving no stone unturned.’ – Angus Mugford, Toronto Blue Jays, Toronto, Canada
