This program provides students with a foundation in theories and methods of counseling psychology that will allow them to counsel people who wish to maximize their sport performance and health. These two areas, sport and health psychology, share many synergies, including the necessity to manage overt and covert behaviors that often conflict with challenges posed by their social environments and physiological states. Counselors with specialized training in sport and health psychology are employed in health promotion programs, high school and university counseling centers, amateur and professional sport programs, physical rehabilitation centers, community health and recreation agencies, retirement communities and medical facilities. The focus of this degree is on sport and health programs and how they contribute to community health. Graduates will be prepared to impact issues such as childhood obesity; the development of sport and wellness programs for those who are underserved and marginalized; and ways in which coaches and other professionals working with youth and adult athletes can enhance performance as well as character in constructive and healthy ways. It offers the best features of traditional graduate degree training programs coupled with Adler School’s emphasis on the education and training in socially responsible practice.
