Abstract
This project examines how sports injuries affects mental health and identifies key psychological concepts related to injury and restriction from sport. From interviews with community members and providers, a screening questionnaire was created to start a conversation around mental health in injured athletes with the goal of destigmatizing the topic, identifying struggling patients, and offering appropriate resources.
