Sport Psychs repeat after me: 1. CBT is not monolithic. 2. There are many CBTs. 3. Ellis' REBT is a (the first) CBT. Beck's CT is also a (the second) CBT. 4. Psychological Skills Training (PST) is derived from CBTs. Now reference Ellis and Beck in your next paper about PST.

Ironic that well-intentioned support from friends, loved ones (eg financial aid from parents), sport orgs, coaches etc. can become a source of pressure and stress for performers, a source of guilt if they 'fail to deliver'. Safe, open discussions about this irony can help.

⭐️On Wednesday the 15th March we are hosting the Scottish Sport & Exercise Psychology Network meeting The University of Edinburgh. Two great sessions lined up: 1. In conversation with Dr. Ciara Reidy, discussing how we can expand the role of SEP through knowledge transfer partnerships.
