Professional Services


Dr. Murray offers a unique range of services including  assessment, counseling, executive consulting, workshops, and speeches for:

Sports Teams, Individuals, Corporations, Organizations, Couples, Groups, and Families

Description of Services

A growing number of individuals and organizations have recognized the importance of addressing the crucial mental skills needed for long-term success. These principles apply to business executives just as much as they do to professional athletes or students. These skills are an integral part of pursuing business, athletic and personal excellence.

What is provided?

Performance Enhancement - to improve concentration, confidence, attention control, goal setting/achievement, competition plans, energy management, relaxation/imagery, motivation, distraction control, conflict resolution, leadership, and much more.

Counseling for personal and interpersonal issues at home, in the workplace or on the team. Problems are often related to change. Common issues include relationships, time management, stress, moods, self-concept/esteem, player/coach and player/player issues, and more. Executives in business often have difficulty balancing the extreme demands of work and family. Very successful persons often experience imbalances in their lives that respond well to this intervention.

What Happens When I see Dr. Murray?

This is a cooperative venture. Your issues will be discussed with the goal of creating solutions with regard to how your needs might best be met. Subsequent sessions are dependent upon the issue and the movement toward resolving the presenting issue.

Counseling is a confidential process. The fact that you are utilizing these services and what is discussed in sessions are not shared with anyone without your written permission. Exceptions to this rule are clearly outlined in the initial session.

Summary

Dr. Murray's services are just another way to encourage success and well being in every way possible.
