Clear boundaries for professional use.
MindEdge is not a diagnostic tool, clinical record system, or replacement for care. Its AI coach produces automated responses and can make mistakes. Public practice tools are educational. A coach account provides a shared team workflow; it does not create a separate clinical workspace.
Decide suitability under your own professional obligations. Agree on sharing before using a team dashboard, and keep confidential clinical documentation in your appropriate system.
How source and review information works →Questions about using MindEdge
How can a psychologist or practitioner use MindEdge resources?
Browse the educational guides and free tools, then choose a practice that fits your professional role and the athlete’s goals. You can use printable routines or reflection prompts as an agreed activity between conversations. Decide suitability yourself; MindEdge does not replace your assessment or care.
Is MindEdge a diagnostic tool or a clinical record system?
No. MindEdge is a mental performance and self-improvement app. The mindset assessment is a reflection tool, not a diagnosis. The coach dashboard is not an electronic health record, and it should not be used to store confidential clinical notes.
Are the website tools available without an account?
Yes. The public breathing timer, routine builder, self-talk tool, reflection tool, team huddle planner and weekly practice planner work without a MindEdge account. Inputs in the builders remain in the page. Copy or print a plan if you want to keep it.
How do I check the source and review status of a guide?
Open the source guide from an answer or resource card. Guides show their source material and the review details available for that version. The editorial policy explains how MindEdge handles professional review and revisions. This answer hub links back to those original pages.
Can I print a practice for an athlete to use between sessions?
Yes. Public builders have Print / save PDF controls. For the app’s full content library, an authorized coach account can export a program or technique from Programs & techniques. Agree with the athlete how they want to use and store their copy.
What should I explain before using a shared team dashboard?
Explain who will have access, what the athlete is choosing to share, and how you intend to use it. Keep clinical records in your own appropriate system. Use your professional obligations and local requirements to decide whether a shared team setup is appropriate for that athlete.
Is the AI coach the same as speaking with Lesley?
No. The in-app AI coach produces automated responses. A session requested with Lesley is a separate human service, arranged and confirmed by email. AI output can be mistaken and does not establish a professional care relationship.
How can I discuss collaboration with Lesley?
Use the session-request page and choose Professional collaboration. Share your country, timezone and scheduling preferences. Keep client health information out of the public request; the initial reply can establish a suitable way to discuss the collaboration.
A human conversation with Lesley.
Request a session, team workshop or professional collaboration. Availability, format and fees are confirmed before booking.
Request a session →A Between-Session Practice Worksheet
Use this worksheet to organize an educational practice agreed with an athlete. Decide suitability within your own professional role. It is not a clinical form, a validated outcome measure or a place to record confidential client information.
Agree on the purpose
Ask which sport situation the athlete wants to explore and what a useful action would look like. Agree on whether they wish to share the resulting worksheet. Do not enter names, diagnoses or sensitive notes into public tools.
Write an observable experiment
Specify the context, the action and a manageable opportunity to try it. For example: before receiving in a passing drill, look for one open option. Leave room for the athlete to adapt or stop the exercise.
Review experience, without inferring causation
Ask what was attempted, what the athlete noticed and what they would change. This record cannot establish treatment response. Keep clinical assessment and confidential documentation in your appropriate professional systems.
An example to adapt
An athlete wants to return to the next task after an error. Together, you choose a familiar drill and the cue “Find my role.” At the next conversation, ask about one actual attempt rather than treating a mood rating as evidence of clinical progress.
