Miranda Arellano
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, MC, RP, EMDR Certified Therapist, EMDR CIT
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy is increasingly being used in the field of sport psychology to help athletes improve their mental performance. While EMDR is primarily known for its effectiveness in treating trauma-related issues, it can also be adapted to address various challenges athletes face, such as performance anxiety, self-doubt, and past failures.
In sports psychology, EMDR can assist athletes in reprocessing and reducing the emotional impact of negative experiences or limiting beliefs that may hinder their performance. By doing so, it can help athletes develop greater mental resilience, enhance their focus, and overcome mental barriers that may be holding them back in their athletic endeavors. While EMDR is not a universal solution for all sports-related challenges, it can be a valuable tool when tailored to address an athlete's specific psychological needs. Working with a sports psychologist trained in EMDR can be beneficial for those seeking to optimize their mental game in sports.
