AP² - Mental Skills Program
The Mental Skills Program is designed to provide student athletes with an opportunity to develop mental skills and be able to apply them in diverse situations. The goal of the program is to optimize student-athletes problem-solving abilities on and off the playing field. The program seeks to attain this goal through team and individual sessions.
Team sessions
Team sessions are an option for teams that may have a particular area in which they need assistance. Perhaps the team is struggling to find its form in the midst of a particularly difficult season, or there are group dynamic issues within the team. Every team is different, and thus every team faces challenges unique to their group. Lee works with the coach & team in order to improve the way the group approaches their unique mental challenges.
Team sessions are conducted at each coach’s request. Once specific needs are agreed upon with the team and coach, Lee Hancock will customize a session or series of sessions focused around the topic or topics of interest.
Lee is currently working with a number of South Bay Soccer teams.
One-on-one sessions
One-on-one sessions are designed to assist the athlete in developing mental coping skills related to their specific dilemma. Psychological barriers to peak performance exist in a variety of forms. Whether anxiety before a big game, an inability to finish as a striker (who is used to finishing), or a fear of coming back from an injury; these barriers exist and can be dealt with in a variety of ways. This is a completely confidential service.
The cost for this service is dependent on the number of sessions and will be estimated following initial review of request for services.
When – Meetings will be agreed upon with the individual and his or her family
