CLINICS IN SPORTS MEDICINE FOREWORD The Interface Between Sport Psychiatry and Sports Medicine

چکیده
ports psychiatry—are you crazy? No, but sometimes our athlete patients need a little professional help. Drs. Ian Tofler and Eric Morse have put together an outstanding issue for Clinics in Sports Medicine that I think will provide some new insights for most of us who take care of athletes. They have successfully recruited experts in their area to share everything from interviewing to treatment of common (and not-so-common) problems in our athletes. I found it particularly interesting to learn about eating disorders and substance abuse from a different perspective. I appreciate the outstanding effort made by Drs. Tofler and Morse—please enjoy some free counseling without the couch time!
