Method

Rafa’s method (patented #8,241,152 by the American Patent and Trademark Office) is based on three phases:

RECOGNIZE the stressor(s).  Through a questionnaire and my observations, we will identify the primary weaknesses and/or anxieties that hinder your performance.  We will also think together to determine the origins of these anxieties. 

RESOLVE with action plans.  We will improve your confidence and focus by implementing techniques such as controlled breathing, role-play, and modeling to address your technical, physical, tactical, and mental hurdles. 

REINFORCE with visuals.  We will decide upon keywords that refer to the desired behavioral changes determined in the previous phase.  We will, then, print these words on silicone rubber bands, and place them in easy-to-see places, like on one’s wrist or fingers.  They will serve as reminders for the desired changes.
