Dr. Josh Klapow’s training as a clinical psychologist is critical to helping athletes reach peak performance and thrive in a highly competitive environment. Optimizing sports performance often means learning to navigate broader psychological challenges.
“Relaxing and dialing back intensity to allow the body and mind to leverage the skills an athlete has already developed is what opens the door for peak performance. When intensity is dialed up and back to the challenge of the situation, performance is optimized.”
