Testimonials

A real breakthrough book for athletes! Having been frustrated using traditional cognitive-behavioral approaches with athletes experiencing freezing, choking or the yips, this book packs in all of the information you need to make a wonderful impact with athletes suffering from these recurrent sports performance issues. I was able to put the breakthrough therapy of `brainspotting’ to immediate use with my clients and the results were spectacular! I would highly recommend this book and its techniques to all practitioners who work with athletes. You will be thrilled with your results. But that’s not all. The authors wrote this book so that athletes could also benefit. They carefully put together treatment strategies that athletes can employ even without a therapist. I recommend this not just for therapists who work with athletes, but for athletes themselves!

Dr. G, I just finished reading This is Your Brain On Sports and I absolutely loved it! It opened my eyes to what really causes athletes to fall apart and it will help me be more effective with my players!

I was listening to your “Parents” audio today on my drive and I have to say it opened my eyes! Especially the part where you talk about “good” and “bad” nervous. What a life skills gift to teach parents how to teach their kids how to roll with the “juice” that naturally comes up as you’re about to perform! The “Juice” is normal, it is what will fuel you. Don’t fear “The Juice” embrace it. Such a great audio! Thank you.

Wesley

Thanks so much! I finally learned how to get my parents on the same page that I’m on. They’re actually helping me now! Go Figure! It has made things so much much easier for me to do my job. I think this is a critically important book for coaches in any sport.

Since I started working with your audio’s (14 Steps) and talking with you, I’ve finally gotten a handle on my…nerves and stopped the freezing that was going on…

Your new program has really helped both of my kids even though they are in different sports! My daughter used to get too nervous before she played and she told me how much more relaxed and focused she feels now and I can see it in her level of confidence and success on the field. My son had a long history of doing better in practice than competition, leaving him frustrated and us not knowing how to help him. What a difference I see in him now when he competes under pressure. Thanks so much — you’re a great teacher!

Concerned Parent

I have downloaded your 14 Steps to Mental Toughness and have been listening to them with my son. I must say that it is having a very positive impact on both of us!! We live in the UK where this type of science is not well known, but now I am persuaded by it! I am so grateful that I discovered your work as my son is only 17 so has plenty of time to benefit.

Mohammed

My before match nerves used to kill my confidence and tighten me up so that I would lose to players I should’ve been beating. Your mental series is fantastic and has helped me keep my cool when I play and my ranking has skyrocketed!

I used to regularly choke against certain opponents, getting easily psyched out! Your audios have really helped me stay calm and focused! Now when I walk on the court, I feel confident regardless of who I’m matched up against!

Gretchen

Denise

I have always been the kind of player who loses confidence when my opponent strings a number of points together. Your program helped me get a handle on this and to stay calm and focused despite my opponent’s runs! Instead of panicking, I am able to calmly refocus. Thanks!

Jake

I have been using your program and I have finally learned to play my OWN game. Before, certain players would always freak me out and I’d get so nervous, I’d end up beating myself by over thinking about them. You’ve taught me what I had been doing wrong and how to correct it!

Scotty

My son plays #1 singles and has been struggling lately with his game and confidence. I got your racquet sports audio’s and I can’t believe the difference! He used to get upset with bad calls and then give points away. Now he’s playing so much more confidently.
