Esport psychology is similar to sport psychology, but geared towards esport athletes and competitive gamers. While pro gamers may not have the same physical demands as some athletes, they are still required to maintain an elite level of awareness, concentration, dexterity, communication, mental wellness and more. In fact, some of the unique stressors that competitive gamers face are not addressed directly in traditional sport psychology approaches. Thus, an esport psychologist can help competitive gamers improve their mental game, working on such things as enhancing focus, managing difficult and performance-impacting emotions, building team-related communication and performance skills, maintaining physical health, and more!
