Important Note
About Interviews:
Dr. Murray is frequently asked to speak to groups and be
interviewed by the media on matters related to sport and
performance psychology. This helps to grow the field and
increase public awareness of an important benefit. A sampling of
some of Dr. Murray's recent interviews appears below. It should
be noted that the confidentiality of Dr. Murray's clients is
always preserved 100%. There will be no deviation from this
standard. Any comments made voluntarily by a client and
appearing in the public domain, were done so only at their own
discretion. This is one of the benefits of "real sport
psychology" services, by licensed providers. Professional
confidentiality is always maintained.
