Referral request: sports psychology for skydiving

Recommended Posts

Hello!

Looking for a referral - have you worked with a sports psychologist with experience in competitive skydiving and whom you'd recommend?  My skydiving mental game needs to improve at the same rate as the actual flying.  I'm super-lucky having a great flying coach, would love a recommendation of a good sports psychologist with whom you've worked.

Requirements:

  • San Francisco Bay Area based if possible OR must support remote video/phone/audio coaching
  • Actual experience coaching athletes in extreme sports - they don't all have to be skydivers; martial arts, motor sports, college/professional football, rock climbing, skiing - all welcome

Thanks in advance, looking forward to hearing from you.

Have a successful week and blue skies!

A worthy book:  John Derosalia  Mental Training for Skydiving and Life.  Copies are available on Amazon.  He worked with several teams in the late 90's.  I have no idea what he's doing now.  I met him at a competition.  He's a really nice guy and I could see how he would be good to work with.  He still has a website: skymindschool.com.

Hi Bicyclejim!

I have his book, not sure if he works with remote new clients.  Looking him up again (I got the book and did my initial research on him on Hurd's recommendation from his video).  Thanks!

Also engaging others.  I'll make a decision by tomorrow.  Need to get over a cold and get busy.

Blue skies!
