As a Psychologist with an emphasis in sports psychology, I believe I will gain effective knowledge on how to build the skills needed in my field of study. I look forward to learning and understanding human behavior. Learning more about the cognitive processes and how thoughts influence actions and feelings. I look to gain great communication skills which will be effective in psychology. One of the most important things that I will learn is understanding diversity and culture perspectives. Psychology to me is not only about theory, it’s about applying what you learn to understand and improve lives.
In the sports field I’m interested in how mental strategies can improve athletic performance. Learning about the mental skills. It would be my job to find strategies that includes visualization techniques and goals that can enhance performance. The skills and knowledge I would present to an employer to show what I bring to the organization is the foundation in goal setting, mental skills training, and positive self-talk. I have experience with workshops for athletes that cover everything from meditation, mindfulness, breath work, and visualization exercises. It will enhance an athletes’ performance by improving focus and confidence. My goal is to contribute to the team in ways that focus on mental training programs and promote overall well-being.
