Mental coach (certified): Success begins in the mind

Without the goal focus, stress management and resource mobilization that mental training enables, many podium places would probably not be achieved. However, the basic principles and techniques are not only used in sport, but in all areas of life and business. In continuing education, further training in mental training, you will learn how to make yourself and others mentally fit and prepare them for difficult situations.

Mental coach training - your future?

Are you looking for a new challenge in the field of mental training? Would you like to train as a mental coach? Are you interested in this booming method for boosting self-confidence, social and emotional skills and improving performance? This form of training was originally used primarily for athletes. In sports psychology, mental training of movement sequences was used to create the idea of moving in a sporting sequence. This is done without an active action. Thanks to the conscious improvement of the imagined movements, the movements are also improved in active sport, which leads to greater success and self-confidence. This mental training is often used after accidents during rehabilitation.

Training to become a mental coach is usually attended on a part-time basis. There are numerous different qualifications and levels, more information can be found at Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch.

Questions and answers

Mental training courses cost different amounts depending on the structure, content and duration of the course. A course lasting around six months (150 lessons) can be expected to cost around CHF 4,500. Shorter courses or introductory seminars can be cheaper. Ask the providers about the exact costs and the services included.

The two terms often mean the same thing. However, coaches always take on an observing, analyzing and advisory role and adapt their methods individually in the course of mental coaching. It also follows from this that mental coaches generally deal with coaching individuals, whereas mental trainers tend to work with groups and practice specific actions through systematic repetition.

No, there are currently no training courses for mental trainers that are federally recognized and lead to the title of federally certified mental trainer or mental coach, for example.

A mental coach helps people to break out of their mental rut and gain mental strength and achieve their personal goals. To this end, mental training uses various methods such as relaxation techniques, stress management and imagination exercises. Successful mental training achieves a long-term change in cognitive abilities and the development of mental strength. It is not about a short-term change in behavior or getting rid of fears.

There are several courses in the field of mental training, so it is not easy to decide on the right educational measure. It makes sense to first obtain sufficient information from the individual providers and schools and read the description carefully. Among other things, pay attention to
  • Course description and contents
  • Duration
  • Class size
  • Objective
  • Course dates
  • Course location
  • Course costs and additional costs
  • Materials
  • Prerequisites
  • Degrees and examinations
  • Reputation and standing
  • Experience of the school
  • Training and qualifications of the trainers
Always consider what you want to achieve with this mental coach training course and in which area you intend to work with it. For example, if you intend to focus on the field of sport, a CAS in Psychological and Mental Training in Sport (UAS) might make more sense than a wide-ranging certificate course in mental coaching.

Nowadays, online training is in tune with the times and more and more providers are offering this variant or combined variants with other forms of teaching. The advantages here are, of course, learning from home (sometimes independent of time). In many cases, basic knowledge is also taught online through videos, practical exercises and theoretical input and then supplemented with face-to-face lessons on site.

The content of a mental coach training course varies greatly depending on the training institute. Here is an example:
  • Basics of psychology
  • Selected sports sciences
  • Breathing techniques
  • Visualization
  • Soliloquies
  • Cognitive training
  • Psychomotor training
  • Concentration training
  • Motivation training
  • Psychoregulation training
  • Psychophysical regeneration
  • Conversation
  • Consulting concepts
In addition, there is in-depth study of the field of application and practical examples as well as transfer and project work. This example of the content of a mental training course comes from the CAS Psychological and Mental Training in Sport, which lasts 3 semesters. Courses with a shorter duration and a differentiated focus cannot deal with mental training to the same extent, so you will find different content. For more information, please contact the individual schools and providers.

In sports mental training, core skills are specifically taken into account and an individual development plan is drawn up. Self-confidence and trust in one's own abilities are promoted in a targeted manner. Athletes are also specifically prepared for competitions and also deal with body language and the intervention matrix.

Training to become a mental coach is primarily aimed at people who want to support and advise others and have communication skills that enable them to conduct comprehensive counseling sessions. You do not need to be a skilled speaker before your training, as you will only learn how to conduct mental coaching in this course, but you should have the basic prerequisites such as a command of the German language and openness in dealing with other people in order to be able to conduct mental coaching at all. The respective schools will inform you about the exact admission requirements.
