Coaches Corner

Spot Early Warning Signs and Partner with Families Effectively

COACH Framework

Coaches Corner is a five-module training series designed to strengthen coaches’ ability to recognize and respond appropriately to mental-health-related concerns among athletes. What makes us unique is not only our expertise with athletes, but the support that coaches receive after the training is complete.

Beyond Awareness: Specialized Mental Health Training for Coaches Our Listen & Change curriculum goes far beyond basic mental health awareness. Developed by our Psy.D., this in-depth, clinician-designed series gives coaches practical, real-world strategies to protect and support their athletes. Through interactive modules—and our upcoming online platform—we equip coaching staffs with actionable toolkits: Recognize & Respond: Identify early warning signs of mental health struggles without taking on the role of a clinician. Actionable Protocols: Know the exact words, response plans, and referral steps when an athlete is in crisis. Culture & Performance: Build a psychologically safe environment that supports athlete well-being on and off the field.

The course is anchored in the COACH guiding principles.
