Dr. Jack Singer

In addition to earning a Diplomate in Behavioral Medicine from the American Academy of Behavioral Medicine, Jack Singer, Ph.D., (Dr. Jack) maintains a special Certification in Clinical Hypnosis from the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis. A firm believer in "Mind-Body Medicine," Dr. Jack is one of only a dozen or so Sports Psychologists around the U.S. who has this Clinical Hypnosis Certification and he teaches powerful, self-hypnosis skills to all his athletes.This difference maker is truly an "unfair advantage" for all athletes who want to consistently maintain their peak performance skills. In short, Sports Hypnosis is a must for athletes who want to have a powerful "edge" on their competition!

Recognized by the National Institute of Sports as a Certified Sports Psychologist (CSP), the Institute also honored Dr. Jack as a Diplomate Mental Health Service Provider in the field of Sports Psychology. This honor is bestowed only on one-half of one percent of the Sports Psychologists who apply for it.

Dr. Jack regularly appears as a guest on sports talk radio and television shows around the U.S., including FOX Sports, ESPN, and the XTRA Sports in Southern California. Dr. Jack is on the advisory board and a regular contributor to Championship Performance and his articles also appear in psychology, medical, human resources and business periodicals across the U.S.
