Comments from Previous Workshop Participants
"This
workshop sets a gold standard! Quite a unique and stimulating blending of acquisition
of knowledge and application of principles. In addition to Jack Lesyk's extremely
generous sharing of information and of materials and handouts, the presentation
really fulfills its promises. Jack's personality, authenticity, enthusiasm, and
availability are delightful, compelling, and not to be missed. A must attend!
A must see!" Jane
Wilkins, Ph.D., Private Practice, New York, New York
"I
have been to many sport psychology conferences/workshops and
Jack's workshop has been the most amazing and worthwhile
experience. I am leaving with new and fresh ideas for
interventions techniques that will help me with my consulting.
The workshop was innovative and kept me interested and excited
during the course of the two days. I wish I had taken this
workshop two years ago."
Tiffany R. Jones, M.S., X-Factor Performance Consulting,
Enfield, CT
"Jack
should earn a gold medal for this workshop. He is an
inspiring teacher and provided many applicable tools for the
practice of sport psychology with all sports, and life in
general."
Sandy
Dunn, LCSW, Private Practice, Jacksonville, FL
"WOW
- totally comprehensive. As a practitioner new to the
field, I needed it all - and I got it!"
Christine Campbell-Shettsline, M.A., Green Lane, PA
"I
want to thank you for a terrific conference. I certainly feel I learned a lot.
Most importantly, I feel my motivation was increased to continue pursuing my interests
in sport and psychology and combine them. Please inform me of other conferences
that you may present."Kristine
M. Eiring, Ph.D., University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI
"Jack's
workshop was truly informational and well worth the trip.
I was especially impressed with his framework for working with
athletes, based on his Nine Mental Skills of Successful
Athletes. I would recommend this workshop for anyone
interested in the practice of applied sport psychology."
Rodney Wild, Ph.D., Maximum Performance Hockey Schools,
Chugiak, Alaska
"I
was particularly impressed with and appreciated his emphasis on
the whole person - sport is part of a person's life, but not
his/her whole life."
Gerard A. Banez, Ph.D., Director, Pediatric Behavioral
Medicine Program, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH
Rationale With
the recent growth of interest in applied sport psychology there has been considerable
debate over who is qualified to work in this area. With the exception of small
numbers of recent graduates from universities that offer specific programs in
sport psychology, others who practice this specialty have been primarily trained
in more traditional applied behavioral sciences disciplines such as clinical and
counseling psychology. There is a growing consensus that such training and experience
alone does not adequately prepare a professional for working competently with
athletes, especially in the area of performance enhancement. On the other hand,
the experienced practitioner does not need to close his/her practice and return
to full-time university studies in order to become qualified in sport psychology. With
guidance from colleagues, experienced practitioners can acquire the additional knowledge
and skills necessary for working in sport psychology through self-study that includes
such elements as reading, being mentored, and attendance at intensive workshops
and conferences. With
these issues in mind, I wrote the book, "Developing Sport Psychology within
your Clinical Practice: A Practical Guide for Mental Health Professionals"
(Jossey-Bass, 1998). This workshop is a direct result of feedback and requests
that Ive received from readers of the book and other behavioral science
professionals seeking specialized training in sport psychology to augment their
current skills and training. It
is my expectation that this workshop will comprise one element in the continued,
self-directed learning process of its participants.
