Job Description

Sports Psychology Careers Internship in Denver, Colorado Connecting People to Purpose
Location: Remote (open to applicants in Denver, CO and nationwide)

ALTITUDE TRAINS THE BODY. WHAT TRAINS THE MIND?
Colorado athletes train at altitude: thinner air, stronger lungs. Broncos, Nuggets, Rockies, and Avalanche compete a mile high. If environment can train the body, what trains the mind, and whose job is it? Remote, national cohort online, no local office or partnership claimed.

THE PROFESSION AT THE CENTER
Sports psychology is a fast-growing field where mental health meets athletic performance: mental training matters as much as physical training. Athletes from youth leagues to professionals are learning it. Four paths carry the work. Interns study all four and practice the six shared skills.

FOUR SUMMITS, FOUR ROUTES
Clinical route, Clinical Sports Psychologist: mental health, performance anxiety, injury recovery, emotional well-being; doctorate and licensure. Consulting route, Performance Consultant: focus, confidence, mental routines. Research route, Academic & Research Roles: teaching and research. Community route, Youth & Community Coaching: psychology in youth sports, school programs, community wellness.

THE KIT EVERY CLIMBER CARRIES
Mental Performance Training; Emotional Resilience Building; Injury & Recovery Support; Team Dynamics & Leadership; Goal Setting & Motivation; Confidence & Focus Coaching. Unpack and practice each item.

THE EIGHT-WEEK EXPEDITION PLAN
Route study of paths and credentials; kit practice across the six skills; field listening to athletes and coaches; content building in essays, guides, or multimedia; community education; summit reflection, the purpose connection.

WHO SHOULD APPLY
Psychology and health sciences students, exercise science students, athletes in hard places, coaches, counselors in training. No prior coursework required. Gain six skills and a finished piece.
