Opportunities and Considerations of New Media and Technology in Sport Psychology Service Delivery

Abstract The rapid growth in forms of technology used within society presents the field of sport and exercise psychology with numerous opportunities and considerations. Nevertheless, there currently exists a scarcity of knowledge or research for sport psychology professionals (SPPs) to draw from when seeking to use technology and media in their service delivery. This article presents a commentary on the perceived opportunities and considerations drawing primarily from the online counseling literature and we offer recommendations for good practice for SPPs utilizing technology and media in service delivery.
