ABSTRACT It has been well recognized that student-athletes (SAs) are a hard-to-reach population for university counselling services. However, after this present author started implementing Dohsa Therapy (DT), a body psychotherapy originally developed in Japan, the total number of therapy sessions increased remarkably. There has been as many as nine times the number of sessions than before DT was implemented. Once SAs started DT and noticed changes in their bodies, movements, and postures, which improved their sport performance as well as mental wellness, they became willing participants for extended periods. This paper describes how DT was implemented through university counselling services and contributed to the connectivity between the services and the SAs by overcoming the barriers to psychological assistance.

作为学生咨询服务的一部分，将Dohsa疗法应用于学生运动员

摘要众所周知，学生运动员（SA）是难以获得大学咨询服务的人群。然而，在此作者开始实施最初在日本开发的一种身体心理疗法“ Dohsa疗法”（DT）之后，治疗的总次数显着增加。与DT实施之前相比，会话数多达九倍。一旦SA开始DT，并注意到他们的身体，动作和姿势发生变化，从而改善了他们的运动表现和心理健康，他们便成为了愿意参加更长时期的参与者。本文介绍了DT是如何通过大学咨询服务实施的，并通过克服心理援助的障碍来促进服务与SA之间的连接。
