Blog #15

Today I met with Dr. Shinitzky to discuss his social media presence. Dr. Shinitzky wanted my help with boosting his instagram, facebook, and twitter. He proposed an idea, He wanted to post inspirational quotes for athletes that follow him. I was able to find an app called ImageQuote. This app allows me to post his quotes over an image of sport. Dr. Shinitzky found this to be very useful. He compiled a list of Shinitzky Isms that he has accumulated over the years. He wanted to post these out and allow athletes to see these quotes. The idea beside the project was to make sure that he could reach a larger audience. With posting the quotes out, the athletes can read them and repost them. I really liked this idea as well, Dr. Shinitzky has a lot of knowledge and great quotes. The day was short as sweet as it was a quick lunch but I am excited to get started on this project and see what I can come up with!

Weekly Reflection #3 This last week has been the best yet. I was able to finish my research paper, I met with Dr. Shinitzky to discuss his social media presence, and was able to start wrapping up my time in Florida. I wanted to boost Dr. Shinitzky’sInstagram, facebook, and twitter pages. I worked with a new app called Image Quote, I had never used this app and was interested to see what I could make. I learned that the app allows me to make the background anything I wanted, and then use a text box to write the quotes. I found it really cool to repay Dr. Shinitzky and teach me how to use this technology to his advantage! I had acquired them to use the app and thought that Dr. Shinitzky would appreciate me teaching him as well. We spend a lot of time working with this app to really make these images that best they could be. I wanted them to look professional and really pop for the reader. The idea behind this project came from someone asking Dr. Shinitzky to post quotes about the th

Blog #6 Today I worked on a research paper and met with Dr. Shinitzky to go over a slide show that he put together. With the research paper, I was looking how to strongly succeed in the world of Sport Psychology, Sports Hypnosis, and Mental training from a business perspective. As we all know having a successful business depends on the clients (athletes) and regular patients, but what happens when you can't be found? I was looking gain feedback from athletes and online sources. With this feedback, I will be able to gain better knowledge of what it takes to have a successful, strong, and lasting business in the world of mental conditioning. I also looked at the slide show that I mentioned in the introduction paragraph. The life after sport presentation was part of media Psychology. The slide show that Dr. Shinitzky broke down, showed ideas and outlined what’s happens to athletes after their competitive sport days are over. The first topic was looking at morals and behavior, we

Weekly reflection #2 This week has been phenomenal, I have been able to gain so much clinical experience so much in what feels like such a short time. Dr. Shinitzky and I have done so much this week. The opportunities I have had are life-changing, the knowledge, insight, and wisdom I have obtained this week have placed me in a great position. I was able to shadow, Dr. Lodato, meet with Paris Figure skaters, talk on the phone with James Schwabach, and many other elite junior athletes. Early in the week,  I was able to have a phone call with James Schwebach, he is the Tampa Bay Rays mental Conditioning coach. I was nervous and excited at the same time. I was able to ask him a few questions. My questions were as follows: How do you work with athletes that have explosive emotions? What steps do you take? How do they recenter themselves and go back to competing at a high level? Also, what made you want to be a mental Conditioning coach. These questions were important to me and I wante
