Kids seeing shrinks to be better at sports
Professional athletes have been doing it for years, but now kids are getting into it too: seeing a psychologist. At the highest competitive levels, when they want every edge they can get, using a psychologist to overcome fears and deal with the pressure and stress can make a huge difference. As an example, in the story there's a young gymnast who vastly improved her scores after talking to a psychologist about her fear of jumping from one uneven bar to another -- turns out she had a mild phobia that needed to be dealt with.So whether it's for you or for your kids, do you think a psychologist can help athletic performance? And even if it can, is it worth the outrageous expense?
