What Graduates Are Saying about the MGCP Program:
“Peak Performance Sports’ MGCP
course has taught me how champions think and act. I have learned
through Dr. Cohn’s practical, clear lessons and his patient
guidance how to teach these skills to my own students. I want to
thank for sharing your experience and insights about mental coaching.
You inspire us to commit to the process and explore our fullest
potential as athletes, teachers, and people.”
~Curtis Way, MGCP
“The information in the MGCP program
is great! The arrangement of chapters, supportive handouts, case
studies and homework assignments inter-leaves the information, analysis
and planning together nicely.”
~Gene Moretti, MGCP
“I just wanted to thank you for sharing
so many of your ideas which has helped me to become a better coach.
Last week, you sent me a handout about compiling a game plan when
playing a practice round. I used that this weekend with one of my
junior golfers that I have been working with for a month and today
he won his first tournament of the year. I am not writing because
he won, but because of your effort, I am better prepared to teach
the mental skills of golf. For that I am thankful.”
~Chuck Yaeger, MGCP
“Dr. Cohn’s MGCP program exceeded
my expectations and then some. I appreciated Dr. Cohn's interest
and integrity during the MGCP program. I took the program because
I wanted to learn a real system for working with athletes and teams.
Dr. Cohn’s approach to uncovering the athlete’s main
obstacles to success and then having the strategies to help the
athlete were exceptional. I would highly recommend this class to
anyone who is or wants to be a Mental Game Coach. It is obvious
that Dr. Cohn is committed to providing his students all the tools
necessary to excel as Mental Game Coaches.”
~Dr. Mike Procaccini, MGCP
“I earned a M.S.
in sports psychology from Ball State University before completing
the MGCP course. The MGCP program helped me better apply what I
know about sports psychology to working with athletes I currently
coach. The MGCP case studies and handouts provided during the course
were right on! Dr. Cohn’s extensive experience with mental
coaching was evident in both the course materials and weekly classes.
If you are a coach or professional helping athletes or performers
succeed, the MGCP program will be vital to your success!”
~Reyna Gilbert, M.S., MGCP
“I just want to say how much I enjoyed
the MGCP certification program. It has really helped me understand
the mental game, but more importantly has outlined a game plan I
can use when working with my athletes. It has probably been the
best investment I have ever made!”
~Rodney King, MGCP
“Thank you for sharing your expertise
and knowledge in the area of mental game coaching. The organization
and content of the MGCP program manual is an excellent and valuable
reference to mental coaching with athletes. You have enhanced my
knowledge about peak performance and performance enhancement. I
feel better equipped with my new and fine-tuned mental coaching
tools and skills to be effective mental game coach. Thanks again.”
~Marc Anderson, LCSW, MGCP
"Dr. Cohn's MGCP program is an outstanding
opportunity to advance in the mental work with athletes. It
is all practical, soundly theoretically based, and covers
the major aspects. Dr. Cohn is an impressive authority, a good
presenter, and assists with additional or tailored information
whenever asked for. The web site as knowledge base, and the
program itself offer compiled information, that can't be found
elsewhere (I've completed other programs, and know other web-sites
in this field). The program has helped me in my work with athletes
as well as given me
further insights. As an MGCP you have continued access to the
web-site and classes offered. “My deep and sincere thanks
for the course - it was impressive, the weekly classes as well
as the entire program. I am honored by and very happy with the
MGCP program, thank you."
~Wolfgang Kuner, MGCP
“Working with Dr Cohn's MGCP program
was a great opportunity, giving excellent quality tuition and materials,
which have enabled me to grow my business as a sports mental coach.
Dr Cohn’s method really works as my clients are really impressed
with the great positive impact it has had on their performance.
The teleclasses were also an excellent way of learning and having
contact with other coaches in different countries…really brilliant
and fun. The MGCP method is fantastic and really works! Thanks for
an excellent training course and the support you provide to us.”
~Helen Emms, MGCP
“I loved the MGCP program and I am grateful to Dr. Cohn
for creating it. I would highly recommend it to anyone with the
desire to become a mental game coach. I especially liked having
to work with athletes while completing the program. This helped
with skill and knowledge application. Also, Dr. Cohn’s selfless
sharing of knowledge, handouts and activities guarantees to make
any graduate a success. Dr. Cohn is an impressive instructor and
facilitator of the materials of the course and shows a deep interest
and investment in wanting all of his students to succeed.”
~Cheryl Rohweder
“The high school baseball team that
I have worked with
the past two years won the state championship. Our school
won our fifth straight conference title at George Fox. At
the Western Regional's we placed third. The information
from the MGCP certification class was very helpful in helping us
win this year.”
~Marty Hunter, MGCP
“Dr. Cohn's MGCP certification program was exactly what
I needed. I searched long and hard to find a program just like
this. His specialized MGCP training & certification
program provided me with the extra “edge" and mental
game tools I needed to expand my practice into sports and improve
my mental coaching programs for athletes.”
~John R. Ellsworth, MGCP
“I truly appreciate for this opportunity to learn from you. I
have found this to be opening so many doors for me and the response
has been amazing. These tools you have given me are such a great
resource for the area and I cannot thank you enough for all the
time and effort you put into assuring our understanding and ability
to apply the material.”
~Gina Carlson, MGCP
“The MGCP program has
been one of the most useful courses and certifications I have
ever taken. I use it almost daily and have helped more people
with the tools you have provided me than anything else in all
of my years of teaching and coaching. I plan to continue to provide
these services in the years to come and hope to strengthen our
relationship since I have more time to teach with my reduced
work responsibilities.”
~Larry A. Bennett, MGCP
