It is important to recognize that there are very few full time applied sport psychology positions - only a few hundred in the USA. I wrote the following paper to more widely communicate this fact so students understand how difficult it is to find a career in this field: Martin, J. (2019). Is the profession of sport psychology an illusion?. Kinesiology Review, 9(2), 92-103.

What is the conference called that Dr. Quincy Davis recommended again?

@williamguillon1674 10 месяцев назад

Association for Applied Sports Psychology (AASP) i believe. Its a national conference

Hi Phil, this year will be my first year going into a research based master’s program but I eventually want the skills to work with people one on one more so than research, especially athletes. Am I in the wrong master’s program?

@andrepaul6448 9 месяцев назад

I definitely will get my CMPC in the near future and I also want to become a sports psychologist who has the background in helping the normal population of people who struggle mentally.

@philsguidetopsyd 9 месяцев назад

A CMPC is certainly a great start! The certification requires certain courses like sports psychology and others so I know some students have had to take those courses outside of their masters/doctorate degrees. Once getting the certification, if you want to do clinical therapeutic work with athletes as well, it's important to have some type of masters degree in counseling, clinical social work, or clinical psychology with a license in mental health to be able to do both therapy as well as help atheletes with mental skills training for performance. Hope that helps!

I am in the process of decisions my next course in education. I have a bachelors in psychology. However I want to be a sports psychologist. What direction should I take? Should I pursue a masters or doctorate next?

@philsguidetopsyd Год назад

Great question! Depends on what you want to do with either one. If you want to become a sports psychologist and do mental health coaching as well as therapy with clients, a master's in counseling, clinical psychology, social work with a licensure as LCSW, or LPCC, or doctorate in counseling/clinical/ psychology with a licensure in the EPPP or a doctorate in education (like Dr. Davis has) with a CMPC certification would allow you to do both therapy and mental health coaching. So you can't go wrong with either a masters or doctorate as long as the masters is connected to counseling, if not, then you'd only be able to mental health coaching and not therapy with clients. Some go for the doctorate because it allows you to do more research, advanced opportunity for consulting, maybe work with more professional or collegiate athletes potentially, or make a higher salary but at the end of the day you should lean more to where your goals are and what you want to do with your degree. Hope that helps!

@marcohunter4903 Год назад

@@philsguidetopsyd Thank you! This helps me a lot tone. I was leaning toward the doctorate but I didn’t quite know the right path to take. You put it into perspective for me and I thank you. Do you have any recommendations of doctorate programs?

@philsguidetopsyd Год назад

@@marcohunter4903 You mostly can't go wrong with ones that are accreditted and have a good turnout % for students matching to internship. I have a few videos on the channel about choosing programs that might be helpful. Best of luck!

@proper.role.model.819 Год назад

I absolutely love everything you’re doing here and I love your channel. I really want to get into psychology, but everyone tells me it doesn’t pay and it’s not worth it but some thing is calling me to do it and I’m trying to figure out the route that I want to take but because I’m already older I feel like it’s hard for me to do much of interns or anything.

@philsguidetopsyd Год назад

Thank you! and Understandable! Since being in grad school it's been great to meet all different types of people from all different walks of life, and especially all different age groups! Shadowing and talking with multiple psychologists helped me a lot to help me envision if it was the right move for me. Hope that helps and best of luck!
