SPINw welcomes our newest consultant, Elliott Waksman.
As a Wildcat at the University of Arizona, Elliott was first introduced to the field of sport psychology through Dr. Jean Williams, past president of the Association of Applied Sport Psychology (AASP) and top-selling author. Connecting issues, such as confidence and mental toughness, to his personal sport experiences immediately sparked his interest.
Born and raised in Portland, Elliott was a recognized Portland Interscholastic League three-sport athlete. He often incorporates both his personal sport experiences and sense of humor in his mental training sessions.
A message from Elliot:

Do you know what process goals are? Do you know what an outcome goal is? Contact Elliott Waksman, MA today for that extra edge heading into your Fall season.
