for the MGCP progbram including access to the peaksports.com membership
website, start dates and times of each teleclass,, and the telephone

and real-life work with athletes and teams. Nearly 60 hours of homework
assignments will be spreadout over the course of the 20 weeks of
the MGCP training program. Homework will include: performing mental
game assessments with athletes; case study analysis and review;
and real-life coaching simulations with actual athletes.
Throughout this 20-week program, you will…
- Assist actual athletes or teams and get hands
on experience dealing with real mental game challenges.
- Refine your mental game coaching techniques
through 15 real-life case study scenarios.
- Receive a 20 chapter written workbook and over
45 mental coaching handouts for your use with teams and athletes
to ensure that you have the tools necessary to be a powerfully
effective mental game coach.

personalized feedback from Dr. Cohn to improve your mental game
coaching effectiveness.

books and other publications on mental game coaching
